New Delhi, August 27: Kareena Kapoor’s role in her forthcoming film ‘We Are Family’ may have evoked comparison to that of Julia Roberts, but the Bollywood diva says her character in the film does not bear any similarity with the one essayed by the Hollywood actress in ‘Stepmom’.
”There are no similarities whatsoever between Shreya, the character I play in ‘We Are Family’, and the role essayed by Julia Roberts in ‘Stepmom’.
Of course, given the fact that ‘We Are Family’ is an official adaptation of ‘Stepmom’, comparisons will be there but I have played this part the way I would have done it.
In fact, besides the fact that both (the character played by Julia and Kareena) are career driven women there are no similarities,’’ Kareena told reporters here during the promotion of her latest film.
Releasing on September 3, ‘We Are Family’, produced by Karan Johar and directed by Siddharth Malhotra, has Kareena, Arjun Rampal and Kajol in roles evoking comparisons with Susan Sarandon, Ed Harris and Julia Roberts in ‘Stepmom’.
