Whether her confidence is a defence against being stared at nearly all her life or the result of it, Kareena Kapoor Khan is a great example of the revolutionary effects of self-love.She’s glowing with good health, happily married, satisfied with the work she does and the price she commands (she should be, she’s among the highest-paid actresses in Bollywood) and almost cat-like in her contentment with life. So sure, maybe moderation is key and happiness comes from within yada yada yada, but what specific steps did Kapoor take to get to this happy place? That is really the only question we asked her, and, eventually, she answered it.
“On holidays, the first thing I do is get pizza and french fries.” Kapoor has frequently described herself as a ‘greedy girl’. She wants the epic red-carpet moments and the fries, and everything in between. The secret to having it all, disappointingly enough, is portion control. Ration out your pleasures so that they don’t get in the way of your goals. So even on holidays, Kapoor says, she doesn’t fill her plate or her schedule, often choosing quiet evenings by the fireplace to hitting all the sights.
In another chapter of ‘Bollywood celebrities, they’re just like us’, Kareena Kapoor Khan and her relationship with fries makes us nod aggressively in agreement and has hope blooming in our hearts that fries can make us look like the star. Or maybe not.
