It seems that Kareena Kapoor, the six-crore-per-film girl and the unchallenged queen of Bollywood has started to get some competition. Her every move, pay package, big endorsements, multiple film deals with major production houses and the number of films signed are being matched up.

And guess who is the new born contender for Ms.Kapoor?. It’s none other than pretty Katrina Kaif who reportedly is trying to run in a parallel track as that of Bebo.

With or without Katrina’s knowledge, each time Kareena makes a major move, next day news of Katrina doing almost a similar deal floats in the industry. A source close to Bebo says that Kareena feels Katrina is deliberately trying to match her steps. This can be because every time she signs a film for an ‘X’ number of crores, next day a same announcement is made of Katrina doing the same.

Is this just a typical Bollywood rumour remains to be seen. Kareena is the only actress to sign a deal with TV18 for Rs. 3 crore is the fact. Next day Salman’s girl signing two films with the same production house for Rs 6 crore emerged.

Reports of Kareena negotiating a six crore-film deal with Ashtavinayak were followed by Katrina lapping up a two-film deal with Reliance for 12 crores. The 'Race' girl closely follows Kareena each time she signs endorsements too.

Reports of Katrina doing an item song in Ashtavinayak’s 'Blue' for 1.5 crore was laughed at by a Kapoor insider who said it was just 75 lakhs.

But an industry analyst (on the condition of anonymity) says there need not be a question of comparison running between these two stars. The source also reveals about the performance oriented roles of Kareena in 'Chameli' and 'Omkara' while Katrina has so far done only "candy floss glamour roles."

Kareena has been commanding films and doing endorsement on her terms. The brands aproach her because they feel she represents the femme of today and Katrina on her part has a long route to cover if she has to be spoken on par with the Kapoor girl.

As Kareena is acting in Salman and Sohail Khan’s home production 'Main Aur Mrs Khanna', and is also close to the Khan family, she is keeping control over her fiery self. She has kept her calm so far everytime she encountered Katrina.

Lets hope that fireworks don’t fly next time when Bebo meet s Katrina, and all this comparison about these two dames remain rumors.
