Kareena Kapoor Reveals Why Few Actresses Demand Certain Roles
During the conversation at the conclave, Kareena Kapoor Khan expressed, “I think it has changed because a lot of strong women have done a lot of strong parts in films. They have done films that have been loved by the audiences, by the masses, by the film people, by critics, and at the box office. So, whether it’s leading actresses like Kangana Ranaut, Vidya Balan, Deepika Padukone or myself, we’ve always tried to stand for roles that have risen above just being there in the film (sic).” Kareena further added, “So, all has changed a lot of dynamics on many levels, like demanding a certain role, a certain fee, or position (sic).”
Kareena Kapoor commented on the stereotype surrounding the age of female actors, stating that age should not define them. She also expressed gratitude to the audience for supporting their films. Kareena expressed, “Today the audience has become accepting. Age is just a number, it’s as old as you look, you have to be fit, you have to look good, because it’s a visual medium so we have to look after ourselves. I don’t want to ever be a 21-year-old again, I’m very happy. At 21, I was so much more hyper, and anxious and I’m much calm, and I’m in a happy place in my 40s (sic).”

And happiness is something that I have because my happiness is my mental stability. Kareena further added, “Fame, money, career husband, kids, everything falls short if that mental strength and mental happiness is not there.
