Right from marrying Saif Ali Khan at the peak of her career to strongly hitting back at the body-shamers during her pregnancy to coming back to a perfect shape, Kareena Kapoor Khan has done it all and more. The ‘Poo’ of the tinsel town exactly knows how to reign in the showbiz world. So much so, that even after getting married or having baby Taimur Ali Khan, nothing could have ever stopped her from being in the business.
Also, in case you missed it, recently Saif was asked if it is difficult for Taimur when Kareena goes for the shooting of her upcoming movie, Good News. The Race actor retorted, "Not really, I’ve just wrapped up my show, and since she’s working with Akshay (Kumar) who’s so disciplined, they start shooting early and by afternoon she is back home. Tamiur has enough time with both of us.” (You May Also Like: Sharad Malhotra Is Dating A Delhi-Based Designer After Divyanka Tripathi And Pooja Bisht)

Lately, in an interview with The Times of India, Kareena was asked if she is willing to sign more films now that Taimur is growing up. To this, Kareena had stated, “Look, it is not just Taimur but I am also managing time for my family. Balancing professional and personal life is an art and I have leant it. But I think I do it because I love spending time with my family and with Taimur. When you love something, you find a way to do it.”
In an interview with a leading daily sometime back, Kareena opened up on defying norms related to marriage, pregnancy and motherhood. The Veere Di Wedding actress was quoted as saying, “I was always clear about what I wanted. People had advised me not to get married because they felt producers film offer nahi karenge. They had told me I shouldn’t work while I was pregnant. But everything is possible — women multitask. You can be a mother and do your job as well. So many people around the world are doing that and we might not know about their stories. But, obviously, because I’m an actress, the spotlight is on me. This show gives an opportunity to everyone to share their real stories. We have common people addressing their issues. And, of course, there are celebrities because we want to hear them. Longevity is in yourself — if you keep going, change is bound to happen.” (Also Read: Taimur Ali Khan Plays Badminton With Uncle Kunal Kemmu, Don't Miss The Tight Hug In The End [VIDEO])
And how difficult is it for her to juggle between everything, she remarked, “I love doing nothing and being at home, just with my son, Taimur. But again, I also know that I can’t always do that. So, the idea is to find that balance. Strangely and honestly, I’ve found the perfect balance between my personal and professional life. For instance, if I’m working back-to-back for four-five days, I take the next two-three days off because I want that downtime.”

She went on to add, “I need to have my family and friends around because my life revolves around them. I need to feel like a human being. I can’t treat myself like a robot because this industry and the atmosphere pushes you to become one. People are always on the go — if you’re not at work or a set, you’re on digital platforms like Instagram and Twitter or talking somewhere and giving your comments.” (Checkout: Esha Deol Flaunts Her Pregnancy Glow At Her Devar's Wedding, Posts An Adorable Family Picture)
Sharing with the fans the other side of Taimur which is calm and composed, Saif had said, "I can only hope he'll take it as it comes and develop a certain humility. Like Taimur, I too am lucky to be born a Pataudi, go to Winchester College, get work in the industry when there were others who were brighter and more talented. It was a privilege whose worth I didn't understand then. Hopefully my son will be more conscious and conscientious.”
Adding further, he had said, “There's something special about him. During the day, he's waddling around the house but in the evening when I dim the lights, light the candles, put on some music, he's happy to sit quietly with Kareena and me, drinking his milk, soaking in the ambience. As a parent I can only nurture him.” (Also Check: Sriti Jha Of 'Kumkum Bhagya' Turns A Year Older, Alleged Boyfriend Kunal Karan Kapoor Posts A Wish)
