The Bold Bunch: Kareena Kapoor with Rajeev Masand

In the fourth episode of Season 2 of #TheBoldBunch, our 5-part series in association with The Quint, #KareenaKapoorKhan talks to #RajeevMasand about mixing up her choices over the years, balancing the mainstream with the meaningful, and about the roles that have most challenged her. Kareena speaks candidly about the character she's most associated with, which she least relates to, and opens up for the first time about her process of getting under the skin of the women she plays.

[@shazebabrar197]

She was phenomenal in talash . Her most underrated film and performance.

[@mehekcontractor8621]

I love how she is okay with taking smaller roles or parts and she's exceptional in all of them, still doesn't change how much more I want to see of her

[@sanyamk7]

Gorgeous + talented + refreshingly candid + super star. Love her tenacity to still be a relevant watchable star!

[@amberhaeg8127]

I find it so cute when she says “about time ..na.?” In every interview she is herself. Something I really appreciate about Kareena .

[@Stephensofceea]

I think Saif has a very positive impact on her life and career after marriage

[@sakhan8971]

Talaash is one of the most under appreciated movie. All the the characters of the movie, baclground music, dialogues and everything was outstanding. Its one of my favorite movie.

[@usamafarrukh4695]

She is truly herself and so into this interview, it's really endearing

[@2178Sa]

After marriage or motherhood, she still the same. Treat to watch her. Thanks Rajeev

[@Priyanka_2104]

People often misjudge her to be self obsessed....In reality she is self sufficient...she loves herself which is the best thing to do

[@ijjalsparadise7350]

Priyanka Shankholia well said, the correct term is Self Sufficient which brilliantly describes her

I totally agree, bebo has always been a very grounded person she is just like the girl next door. You were always my favourite bebo and will always be. Just be the way you are.

She speaks her mind and is being her lovely self and the credit is being given to her husband, only a man would say something like that to discredit her personality. I am sure she has made an impact on him as he did on her.

MsAysh28 I am sure she did. The reason I attribute this to her marriage is because of her earlier interviews & this one.

We very well know how to respect others...!!

Biggest Kareena fan here, followed her since Refugee and really grew up admiring her! 🙋🏽‍♀️thank you Rajeev for bringing her on the bold bunch, she’s definitely an example of someone who lives life instinctively and this also reflects in her professional choices.

You've done it again, Rajeev. You asked questions that we fans needed. Thank you for this interview. Please interview her again and again in the future for her upcoming projects. We love her so much!

[@dysplasiaanaplasia4128]

She is so amazing man. Hard working when it comes to acting but not showing off her preps and all. Hell yeah! That's how it should be don't tell us the secrets just surprise us... Talaash was just amazing she was hauntingly vulnerable in that movie.

[@saksheekumar]

What I love about KKK is that she's been around and relevant for nearly 20 years, is 39 years old and still as relevant as ever. It's a rare feat in a male dominated industry.

How is she relevant today??? She has a really really stupid radio show. She talks about herself as if she is churning out hit after hit every month. She has no respect for the actresses who actually work on their craft and her "you know"s are extremely annoying.

[@tashkuprosim2510]

Kareena's real life is bold than her roles. She was the first A list actresses who stepped outside when she was pregnant. And her confessing that she auditioned for role will change so many mindset. Her view are very progressive but somehow she cant articulate it.

Kareena is the kind of woman, what an adult man's dreams are made of. She is classy as always, aged gracefully, got married with a wonderful man, had a child and still have a career than most of her peers can only wish for. She doesn't pretend that she is the most bold, strong and independent woman on the whole planet. She doesn't play cheap tricks just to get some easy publicity. What else a man can ask for!
