Kareena Kapoor's sultry Heroine poster out!

Kareena stepped in to essay the role, and she is said to have delivered her best so far in the film. The film, charting the journey of a Bollywood actress, is set to hit theatres on September 14.

Bhandarkar had launched Heroine at the Cannes International Film Festival last year with Aishwarya Rai as the lead. But later, the actor had to opt out of the project after she became pregnant.

She looks chic in a unique, red sari teamed with a daring, blue net blouse. The look is for an item song titled Halkat jawaani.

She displays the range of a Bollywood actor in another poster, in which it seems she has gone back to her Chameli and Chammak challo avatar.

Singh also confirmed the censoring of Kareena's smoking scene as well as some love-making scenes and expletives in the trailer of Madhur Bhandarkar's film.

"We've taken a decision some time back to show no smoking in trailers. This is because in a trailer, there can be no disclaimer about smoking. In the full-length feature film, there has to be disclaimer about smoking at the beginning and after interval. Even then the smoking sequences are blurred," said J.P. Singh, CBFC's regional officer in Mumbai.

The Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) has decided to blur all images of smoking from feature films.

You will probably not see a 'smoking' hot Kareena in the film, as shots of her smoking in the trailer of the film have been censored before being cleared.

It indicates where the glitz and glamour of the film world can take an individual.

Heroine delves into the behind-the-scenes life of an actress in the Indian film industry and the first poster of the film itself is self-explanatory.

A picture is worth a thousand words and the first look of Madhur Bhandarkar's Heroine, with Kareena Kapoor lying upside down, wearing a golden attire, surrounded by film magazines, and an empty glass of wine thrown away, does just that for the film.
