The lure of stardom is impossible to resist, especially for kid sisters who have enviously watched their older siblings flirt with the flashbulbs.First it was the attitude-laden Kareena who followed sis Karisma`s tenacious footsteps to tinsel town Then it was Tanisha, Kajol's equally firebrand sibling, who began sharing badi bahen`s make-up, as she began gearing up for her debut Jaane Kaise Kab Kahan.

The second princess of dream girl Hema Malini, Aahana, not a wee bit discouraged by the gruel and grime that badi didi Esha had to endure in films, is also set for her debut. Though her initiation into films has been wrapped in sheer secrecy, a little bird who flew over the South Indian fortress, told us that elaborate preparations are being made to repackage Aahana as Dreamgirl generation-now. Spunky mother Hema Malini, it seems, does not believe in the `once bitten twice shy,` maxim.

Also, Soha (who earlier worked for Ford Foundation),the youngest daughter of the Begum Of Pataudi, Sharmila Tagore, has decided to follow bade bhjaiya Saif's profession. Inheriting the sophistication of her parents, the lady is rehearsing for a dignified debut. She can also benefit from tips from bhabhi, actress Amrita Singh. With so much inspiration and competition at home, star siblings are only following their instinct for limelight. When genius is known to run in the family, why can`t a yen for stardom?
