Ideas Of India 3.0: Kareena Kapoor Khan has been working in the industry for more than two decades. The actor has won several accolades and is known for iconic performances like Geet in 'Jab We Met', in 'Chameli', 'Omkara', 'Udta Punjab' and her most recent release 'Jaane Jaan', which also marked her OTT debut.
During a session titled 'Queen of Hearts: One Actor, Many Acts' on the second day of the third edition of ABP Network’s Ideas of India Summit, Kareena Kapoor Khan shed light on her diverse filmography, balancing motherhood and professional life, her equation with Saif Ali Khan and more.
On Kareena Kapoor Khan having it all: career, family...
"I think women, every human can have it all: Men, women, everybody, but I think what I have, what I count most important amongst all these things, is that I'm happy. And happiness is something that I have because my happiness is my mental stability. And fame, money, career husband, kids, everything falls short if that mental strength and mental happiness is not there. So for me, that is the most important that a woman should preserve. Self preservation leads to happiness."
On a side of Kareena Kapoor Khan no one knows
"Like I said some things should be preserved, should be kept a little bit for the unknown. So that feeling of okay, do we really know her or most people assume that I am either Geet or Pooh and I made them believe that could be a possibility. You know, I've made them believe that that could be a possibility but there is a side to me that I like to keep a little private. I think that somewhere, it keeps my, like I said mental health, my mental stability because I think if everything is just left for the known and you know, for judgment, I don't know how we'll survive as actors."
