Kareena Kapoor Khan Calls Robert Downey Jr's Oscar Speech 'Genius

"I'd like to thank my terrible childhood and the Academy - in that order. I'd like to thank my veterinarian - I meant wife - Susan Downey over there. She found me, a snarling rescue pet, and loved me back to life. That's why I am here. Thank you. Here's my little secret: I needed this job more than it needed me. Chris knew it, Emma made sure that she wrapped - surrounded me with one of the greatest cast and crews of all time." Robert Downey Jr. said.

"Emily, Cillian, Matt Damon... It was fantastic and I stand here before you a better man because of it. You know, what we do is meaningful, and the stuff that we decide to make is important." He said.
