Pretty differnet from her last interview. This has happened before. Just when I think I know kareena, she comes otu with another interview that makes me go, ok woah, same person? 😆
Bebo: I did it my way
She is gorgeous - she rocks and rules the chart. People may talk of competition from Katrina, Priyanka or from Deepika, but it's quite clear that the queen of Bollywood is Kareena Kapoor.
She has the ability to be in the limelight like no other Diva.
She's currently riding high on films like Kurbaan and 3 Idiots, and her love life with Saif Ali Khan is the toast of Bollywood. Even the book her dietician wrote after Kareena's famous transformation to Size Zero became a huge bestseller.
Yet with all this glow of success about her, Kareena herself doesn't believe it will last and knows that the shine is just for a few days. "When people say I am looking stunning in the film, I feel OK. It's just something I have put into my screen character. When they say what an good actress she is, I feel better because that's what every actress wants. I never said I should get to Size Zero or something like that, but I feel good when people follow me in a good way."
She tempers this with a dose of realism: "I never get on a high because this glamour world is like an addiction. And the reality is that today you are here, but tomorrow... you don't know what will be the response," says Kareena. When asked her why she thought this, she says: "See, it was not in one day that I got all the success I now have: it took me so many years. If you check my filmography, there are more flops than hits. When I started my career I faced serious criticism, but I took it in a positive way." Given an example she said: "Take my weight issue. I worked hard and lost those extra kilos. And as an actor my films and directors have taught me much over time. Experience matters a lot."
Of her flops she has a unique take: "I don't think Kambakkht Ishq was a poor film. I enjoyed doing it. It was the first film with so many international stars." Telling her critics to lighten up, she said: "You are supposing to enjoy the movie, not to do an inspection of it!"
Given how grounded she is, she is pleased that she's in a good place at the moment: "I am very happy now with the way things are coming along. I have worked extremely hard for it and I've spent nights crying myself to sleep. I had films flopping every Friday and people would say such rude things. But I believed in my talent: I knew I could do it - and I did. Today I am living it but I knew then that I needed to do whatever would get me to this level."
Talking about her relationship with Saif, she said: "Our relationship is more stable, happier. He respects me so much, which I like and which is the best thing to happen to me. It's not easy, I'm a working girl. I work more than him, you know. He just does one film a year, but we make sure that we spend time with each other as much as possible. And that's most important for every relationship."
