The 35-year-old actress will be seen sharing screen space with Sonam Kapoor, Swara Bhaskar and Shikha Talsania in the upcoming all-girls film "Veere Di Wedding".
Asked about her equation with Sonam, Kareena said: "I feel like her sister because I am protective and I am really fond of both Rhea and Sonam... I am deeply fond of Anil Kapoor because I treat him like family."
