It's been six months since the new slim Kareena hit the screen in Jab We Met.

But dismayingly, for her latest cover shoot in Vogue, she 'easily slips into Size 0 dresses', says the accompanying article.

Size 0. With vital stats of 31%23-34 inches it is the equivalent of a Size 4, UK. It's the size of Nicole Richie, a size that's sparked off so much debate abroad.

Worse, according to De1hi's leading dieticians, an increasing number of young girls want to become as thin as her Doctor speak Says, dietician Dr Seema Malik of Eleganza Rejuvenation Clinic, "If you're 5 ft 5 you should weigh between 58-61 kg. You can't attain a Size 0 without a detoxifying diet and fat burners. In the long run they have side effects like bone disorders, heart problems and weakness."

According to yoga guru Bharat Thakur with whom Kareena has been working to lose weight, Kareena's diet doesn't involve starving to burn calories, but rather, eating healthily.

"She's also been practicing yoga for the past year for 90 mins everyday. She can easily reduce to whichever look she wishes to, be it Size 0 or Minus One, that too in a healthy way"

Media frenzy
Health problems or not, media's loving her new look. According to ad guru Prahlad Kakkar, "She can neyer attain Size 0 look. She was a hatti katti punjaban."

"Now she looks more attractive. She has broken her golu image and now looks like a woman. She doesn't need to put on weight or else she will again look motu."

Photographer Daboo Ratnani has been shooting Kareena for more than a decade. "She has never looked better," he says. "The weight loss suits her because her features come out really well, so one gets a stronger pictures with all expressions visible."
