Kareena to Remain Kapoor after Wedding!


Recently, actress Kareena Kapoor's wedding outfit has made quite many headlines with her revealing her happiness in wearing her mother-in-law's very own wedding sharara. However, while the smoke continues to spread, more questions have arisen in the media eye as to whether the descendant of the famous pioneer of Indian theatre, Prithviraj Kapoor's great-granddaughter and granddaughter of Raj Kapoor will indeed drop the 'Kapoor' in her maiden name.

It is widely acknowledged that Kapoor's future mother-in-law, actress Sharmila Tagore, also derived from a renowned Hindu-Bengali family with her lineage being a part of the Nobel laureate poet, writer and philosopher Rabindranath Tagore of whom she is the great-grandniece, converted to Islam later in her life due to her marriage with Mansoor Ali Khan Pataudi. Tagore then became Ayesha Sultana Khan, which was abbreviated to only Ayesha Khan soon after, though her renowned fame through her acting career only allowed her to be recognised as Sharmila Tagore even till date.

So naturally, everyone is abuzz with debates as to whether Kareena will indeed be converting to Islam and whether she will be adopting another name just as Tagore did previously, in order to marry her fiance Saif Ali Khan.

Although Kapoor refused to comment on any such topics, and her wedding plans for that matter, she did categorically announce that in current time she was certainly sure the 'Kapoor' in her name will not be deprived of its rightful position after her marital life.

We guess Kapoor's wedding gift from future husband Khan should probably be a name tag to remind her that in October they will officially become Mr and Mrs Khan with or without the Kapoor!

kareena kapoor khan
no change of religion needed for a civil wedding i.e. a wedding in which saif does not lose his cool and pulp his NRI guests.

I also do not see any need for a woman to change her last name to that of her husband after marriage. I'm actually pleasantly in favour of this and keeping her religion. She's keeping her identify and helping women progress with their independence. Although I do suspect Kareena is doing it for her own selfish motives (The Kapoor tag is a lifejacket to remain afloat in Bollywood) but regardless she's setting a good examples to girls who follow her.

She doesn't need to change her surname. I guess it should be her choice whether she wants to change her surname or not. That should be completely a girl's choice. Nobody should force her to change her surname after marriage.

Women changed last names back in the days to indicate who they belonged to. Women were, afterall, considered property, so it makes sense they would change names.

Professionaly even Aish is still Aishwarya Rai in movies.. I think Kareena reason for no-change is purely professional.
