Responding to the same, Kareena Kapoor gave a beautiful answer. The loving mommy shared that she would tell her kids that love has no boundaries, and it doesn't come in any particular gender, size or form. She added that it's not always that a man has to love a woman, but two men or two women can also love each other. In her words:
"Because he loves him, and love doesn't come in any particular gender, size or form. And we can not try to put it in the fact that Amma has to love Abba. It's fine. Sometimes, Jack can love John, and I don't know, Trisha can love Prisha. That's just the way it is. Love has no boundaries."
