Kareena Kapoor Khan certainly does not believe in mincing words. Known to be frank and forthright, she is never known for saying sweet words just for the heck of it.

So showering compliments on another actress is a definite no. Simply because Bebo apparently feels she is the best. Yet, of late Kareena has been openly declaring her fondness for Alia Bhatt.

Sources from the sets of her upcoming film Gori Tere Pyaar Mein state that Kareena would often talk about Mahesh Bhatt's younger daughter in glowing terms.

Says the informer, `Kareena thinks she is the best and there is no one like her, but she still had some kind words for Alia. Bebo seems to be have taken a liking to Alia.`

Adds the source, `She used to be often heard praising Alia. Kareena feels Alia is her younger version and she has her spunk. She feels she will be the next Kareena.`


Incidentally, after her debut film Student Of the Year released, Alia had been compared to Bebo. Alia apparently considers Kareena as one of her idols.
