Kareena Kapoor has scotched rumours of any hostility between her and Esha Deol. "She is like my younger sister,"she shot back when she heard stories of her split with `best friend` Esha.

The proof of her dosti was evident from the SMS message that she showed to some scribes who demanded that Bebo be present at the airport to receive her since she was returning from a long outdoor schedule and the two hadn`t met in ages.

That should put an end a lot of unsavoury stories about Kareena only giving lip service to `turning over a new leaf`. `What I say, I mean it, " is her favourite refrain.Good to see you maturing finally, Kareena.
