Aamir Khan is the maestro of film industry: Kareena

Kareena Kapoor, who has earlier worked with Aamir Khan and will now be seen with his nephew Imran Khan in "Ek Main Aur Ek Tu", feels Aamir is the maestro of the film industry.

"Aamir's body of work is unbelievable. He is the maestro of the industry and Imran is just starting out. Working with Imran is a lot of fun. I think he is a marvellous actor and I hope we get to work together in the future too," the 31-year-old actress said.

Kareena, who is ready with her next two films "Ek Main Aur EK Tu" and "Agent Vinod" is, however, missing from the promotions of the latter movie.

She said her priority was "Ek Main Aur Ek Tu" at the moment.

"Right now 'Ek Main Aur Ek Tu' is in the priority. 'Agent Vinod' is like an action thriller and you know... let Saif do the talking and I think he has been out for the media for a while. You enjoy him for a while and may be I will step in before the film releases," she said.
