Amid the ongoing Twitter controversy, Kareena Kapoor Khan is shining bright at the New York's Times Square billboard. Bebo shared a clip that sees her shining bright at the iconic Times Square. The video shows Kareena gracing a jewellery advertisement. Soon after sharing the video, fellow Bollywood celebrities including her sister-in-law Soha Ali Khan and fans chimed into the comments section and left a string of emoticons to appreciate the 'Jab We Met' star for her achievement.
Global star Priyanka Chopra, who had already attained the international spotlight in her career also left a 'raising hands' emoticon in the comments section. Her comment made the video extra noticeable as both the superstars had a long Bollywood tale of friendship and estrangement with each other. On a related note, this post came after '#BoycottKareenaKapoor' started trending on Twitter. Social media users flooded the platform with tweets slamming her over a report that claimed she has demanded to charge a whopping amount of Rs 12 crore as a fee for playing Sita in an upcoming mythological flick.
