Can’t I just invite Obama home: Kareena Kapoor

kareena kapoor

Lets get the basics out of the way — that actress Kareena Kapoor is blessed with translucent skin, amazingly high cheekbones and cat eyes (in short, she is right up there as far the Indian standard, or really any standard of beauty goes).

That she is considered B-Town royalty (not just because of her filmdom’s-first-family lineage or the fact that beau, actor Saif Ali Khan, is actually a scion of an erstwhile princely state, but because she is considered to be among the very few in the business who can actually act, and the only one amongst the current crop of actors to have worked with all of the reigning Khans).

She has an impressive portfolio of films…and ads — currently she is one of the top brand endorsers, and has also enjoyed alongside all of this, the reputation of being a distinct style icon in oft-over-the-top Bollywood.
You would think armed with all this, the lady would have not a few airs about her — after all, lesser stars have showed their hauteur in no mean measure. But surprise, surprise, the one thing we noticed about Kareena when she dropped by the DNA office for the issue on Dhanteras, in this auspicious, festive Diwali week, was her unaffectedness. In casual jeans, hardly any make-up, and a wide, warm smile, our luminous guest laughed and listened and conversed with us for well over an hour…disarming us absolutely by her very down-to-earth aura and her absolute unpretentiousness.

“I don’t use too much make-up,” she confessed, when quizzed on her style secrets. It sets the tone for much in her life, we gathered, this refreshing simplicity, unanticipated amidst that larger-than-life Bollywood star aura.

Now that US President Barack Obama is coming to town, where would you take him, given a chance, we ask. “Can’t I just invite Obama home?” her ingenuous reply. “I would love to invite him home. I’m a great chef, I’d cook some great Indian food for him, talk to him.”

Kareena’s love for cooking is an unexpected revelation, we quiz her on it later, to learn that she studied cooking in school for three years, and would love to cook Saif’s fave dish for him (she hasn’t yet cooked him anything, in case you’re curious). He’s non veg, she’s strictly veg, but love triumphs, as in the movies — she will cook him his mutton curry!

Meanwhile, there is work and movie promotions to happen — Diwali will see her promoting her next big release Golmaal 3 in the Bigg Boss house and she is eagerly looking forward to that. Her Diwali wish? Like with all else, uncomplicated Kareena expresses her heart: “I want my movie to do well. And I wish my family, my parents, Saif, his kids Sara and Ebrahim could all be together. Saif’s in London, his kids are in Delhi, my niece and nephew are in Delhi. I wish we could all be together — but then work comes first…”
