BOLLYWOOD Kareena Kapoor Khan thinks her performances are underrated
Kareena Kapoor Khan thinks some of her performances are "underrated" because her work is always compared to her most famous film, 'Jab We Met'.
Kareena Kapoor Khan finds it frustrating that her work is always compared to her performance in 'Jab We Met'.
The 42-year-old actress understands that people will always examine her films in context to what she's done before, but she thinks a lot of her movies are "pretty underrated" and are frequently overlooked.
She told the Hindustan Times: “Of course it will always be compared to Poo [in 'K3G'] and Geet [from 'Jab We Met'] they are iconic I understand. Everybody is going to compare. But I feel like people should talk about Chameli, Omkara, Heroine, they are pretty underrated in terms of my performance, Yuva too.
" Why don’t people talk about that? I understand in an actor’s life people kind of pick the parts. I am also doing 'The Devotion of Suspect X', that’s a very different kind of spectrum for me.”
“Of course, 'Jab We Met' is [like comfort food], you see it again and again, there’s always something new, it doesn’t seem like an old film. That’s a rarity, every time you watch it’s like you are watching it for the first time. It’s just the character."
Kareena has kept busy working on 'The Crew' with Kriti Sanon and Tabu and she thinks both co-stars are "cool" so she's enjoying working on a female-dominated set.
She said: “I am super excited because of course I have never worked with Tabu. Lolo (sister Krisma Kapoor) and her have done some stellar films together. All of us are females working on the film, including our producers (Rhea Kapoor and Ekta Kapoor) That’s the cool thing about these two, they have always been cool enough to break the mould and just do something different.
"I am really looking forward to it. It’s a big screen film, and I am pretty sure the audience will love it.
“I have worked in many female centric films, and worked with most of the female actors. So I think today it’s about doing a good film, it’s not about who is in it, what’s in it. Everybody just wants to do a good film.”
