Vidya avoids Bebo

Vidya Balan stayed put in her car for a considerable amount of time to avoid coming face-to-face with Kareena Kapoor. The incident happened in London recently when both the actresses were to rehearse at the same venue for the Zee Cine Awards.

After Kareena broke-off with Shahid Kapur, B-Town buzz had Vidya being linked with Bebo’s ex and, at one time, she was even blamed for their parting of ways.

Says an onlooker, “It is clear that there is no love lost between Vidya and Kareena. As soon as Vidya reached the venue for the dance rehearsals, she enquired which stars were practising at the same time.

When Kareena and Saif’s names popped up, Vidya did a turnaround and went off outside. Despite the chill outside, Vidya preferred to brave the weather, rather than Bebo’s icy stares.”

So was the Parineeta actresses’ gesture just a way to avoid any confrontation?

Adds the onlooker, “It was clear that Vidya did not want to be in Kareena’s path. Being at the same spot would have been uncomfortable for her.”

Numerology plays an important part in Vidya Balan’s life. When she was put up in a suite at Hotel Crown Plaza at St James Court in London, the actress was extremely happy with the arrangements but the only hitch was that her suite number 1169 did not add up to a favourable number so it would prove unlucky to her. As a result, the actress asked for a change in room with a number that was numerologically correct and lucky for her.
