Kareena Kapoor Khan is one of the finest actresses of her generation in Bollywood. Granddaughter of Raj Kapoor, Kareena has undoubtedly carved her own niche in the film industry, and is hailed as no less than a superstar. For the unversed, she made her debut with the film, Refugee in the year 2000. Thereafter, she hasn’t looked back on her career since. In her personal life, the actress is married to Saif Ali Khan and the duo is blessed with two sons, Taimur Ali Khan and Jehangir Ali Khan.
Taking to the discussion portal, Reddit, a user shared an old video of Kareena Kapoor from one of her earlier interviews with Zoom. The diva could be seen revealing how she never considered herself as a brand but only as a human being, who tries to be her real self. She added not having agents, managers and PR personnel running behind her. An excerpt of her revelation can be heard as:
“I have never thought about myself as a brand. I am a person, an actor. People, I think like me because I am as real as it gets. And I don’t have like five agencies, four PR people and three managers running after me and telling me that I should do this interview or I should put this post or I should do this or I should do that. I don’t have the time.”

“He was sitting on top of a makeup vanity van in Ladakh without his t-shirt. And I was like who is that guy? And they were like it’s Saif and then I looked closer and I was like 'Oh, my God. That’s Saif'. That was the moment that I...I just lost my mind. That was it."

In another of her interviews with The Dirty Magazine, Kareena Kapoor Khan opened up on her personal life and talked about the importance of being in a live-in relationship with a partner before marriage. The diva shared that she and Saif only decided to take the next step in their relationship so that they could have children. In her words:
“The reason you get married now is that you want to have a child, right? I mean today otherwise you can just live together. We [Saif Ali Khan and I] lived together for five years, so when we took the next step, it was because we wanted to have children."
