A national award please!

The top three girls in Bollywood — Kareena Kapoor, Katrina Kaif and Priyanka Chopra are obsessed with just one thing — that is the National Award. Right now PC is smiling like a Cheshire cat because she has already beat her two contemporaries in the quest for the highest acting honour given out by the Indian Government. “I’ve won my National Award when I’m still in my 20s,” says Priyanka. “I’m one of the youngest girls to get this honour and of course I’m thrilled,” says the actress who walked away with the Best Actress Award for Fashion. Now, Kareena who has borrowed Priyanka’s director Madhur Bhandarkar to make some saga on a mix of Marilyn Monroe and other actresses’ lives, is also hoping that she will receive the National Award for her Madhur movie in 2011. Not to be outdone, Katz is keeping her fingers crossed that she gets the National Award for Rajneeti. Of course, Katz keeps saying that her role is effective but not very lengthy, blah, blah but deep inside she is hoping that post-Rajneeti the junta and the Republic of India starts taking her seriously as an actress. She seems to have had enough of being just a glamour doll who happens to be ‘lucky’.
