An Interview with Kareena Kapoor

Kareena Kapoor, the newest power woman of Bollywood, comes out in the open and speaks to the media only when she has a film up for release or for any of her brand endorsements. We bring to you our latest Q & A session with the diva. Read on…

What is more important for you while endorsing a product - brand or money?Luckily, I don’t need to go after money. So definitely it’s the brand that matters. I would certainly not endorse cigarettes because I don’t believe in them. I will always endorse products that suit the kind of person I am. My personality will show up in my ads and the products that I endorse.
Do you personally use the products that you endorse?

I definitely use them. These people send me many of their products for free. So everybody uses them at home.
How do you start your day?My day starts with a cup of tea, after that I do yoga and then I leave for my shoots. We start shooting at around 9 in the morning.
Katrina Kaif recently said that she gets inspired by you. What do you have to say on that?It feels great. I think that speaks a lot about me.
Can you tell us of some memorable moments you shared with your family of late?Well, I haven’t taken a holiday with my family for the last four years. Hopefully, by the end of this year we will have some memories to cherish.
What do you find special about being a woman?

I think we all should be proud of being a woman because women are ruling the roost in every field, in every way. The most special thing I feel about being a woman is the power to give birth to a human being. So, men should respect women much more.
Whom do you get inspiration from in life?

It’s mostly my mother and my sister who have inspired me to be what I am. They have always been there for me; I have grown up with them.
Any women-oriented film that’s your favourite?

I don’t see many movies, but I think ‘Chameli’ is very special to me. It had a strong message, it had a cause. And I enjoyed playing the role of a sex worker a lot.
