I no longer crave for noisy crowded spots'
Kareena Kapoor says she's mellowed down. So what has tamed this fiery actor?
Goa would never be the same again. Kareena and her close friends and family brought in her birthday on September 21 on the beaches of Goa. The glow hasn't left her face. "It was great fun. My mom (Babita), sister (Karisma) and my little niece were there with me. Besides Shahid, I had taken along some of my closest friends, like Amrita Arora, her sister Malaika and her husband Arbaaz."
Unfortunately one of Kareena's best friends Karan Johar couldn't make it. "We really missed him. But we had fun, just chilled out. We brought in my birthday with a cake and a quiet dinner. I no longer crave for noisy crowded pleasure spots. Maybe I've mellowed. I had left my phone behind and couldn't even check my messages and calls. Only later did I come to know how many people called. Every year I think this birthday is the best one of my life. Every year my family and friends surprise me. Having Shahid by my side definitely adds to my joy."
However, no plans of marriage in the near future. "Definitely not for the next 4 to 5 years. He needs to work. I need to find my place as an actor. I admit I'm fairly satisfied with the work I've done. But I need that one role that could rock my career. Mani Ratnam's Lajjo could be that film. Just the thought of working with Aamir Khan makes me weak in my knees. Luckily, I've worked with all the Khans — Shah Rukh, Salman, Saif and Fardeen… now Aamir."
In the meanwhile, Kareena's cousin Ranbir prepares to make his debut. "I believe he's really really good before the camera. Good yaar! Maybe we Kapoors can give the Khans a run for their money!"
