Kareena Kapoor is one persistent girl. She is very eager to be part of Shankar's Robot which has Shah Rukh Khan in the lead. Kareena is believed to be so eager to be part of the film that she apparently visited SRK at his house to convince him that she was right for the role.

Kareena is known to go to great lengths to prepare for her roles. Since she wants to bag this plum role opposite SRK so badly, it is but obvious that she would go the whole hog to ensure that she gets it. She has always admitted openly that she is an ardent SRK fan. After Asoka, she has not got a chance to act opposite him in a film. The two were in Karan Johar's Kabhie Khushie, Kabhie Gham, but not opposite each other. Since then, she has been wanting to work with SRK. And Shankar's Robot seemed just the right project for her to work with SRK. So Kareena visited SRK's home in Bandra, and in the presence of Gauri Khan, is believed to have pitched for herself to play the heroine in Robot. Incidentally, Robot was first planned with Kamal Hassan in the lead by Shankar. However, the role finally went to Shah Rukh. Though Shankar is silent about it, the film is believed to be a science fiction. It is futuristic, says sources.
