Mumbai, March 20: Kareena Kapoor, who`s been on a high since the release of `Jab We Met`, finally started shooting a new film `Main Aur Mrs. Khanna` with Salman Khan. She says the idea of working with her `sister`s co-star` makes her nervous.
`Although we`ve done Priyadarshan`s `Kyon Ki...` before, I always get nervous working with Salman. He was my sister`s hero long before we were paired together. And now to be doing a film with him,` Kareena told reporters.
Kareena started shooting Tuesday at Film City at the outskirts of Mumbai.
Kareena and Salman were expected to serenade to immortality in Sanjay Leela Bhansali`s `Bajirao Mastani`, but the film never happened.
She was also signed for Salman`s home production `My Punjabi Nikaah`. That never happened either.
Kareena chuckles in disbelief.
``Main Aur Mrs. Khanna` is an intensely romantic film. I don`t think Salman has done a pure love story like this before. Neither have I. Sohail is also in the film.`
Interestingly, this is the first time in her distinguished career that Kareena will be working with a debutant director Prem Soni.
`He`s very talented. It wouldn`t matter even if he wasn`t - I`m doing it for Salman,` said Kareena emotionally.
