Kareena gets candid about being the Pataudi bahu

Kareena Kapoor Khan recently said her priorities were different when asked if she was eyeying a Hollywood career. However, it seems she’s become somewhat domesticated since being married to Saif Ali Khan, and in essence in a Royal Pataudi household.

When quizzed about her “royal” status, Kapoor Khan tell Mumbai Mirror, “Ufff, I’m not a Begum. My mother-in-law (Sharmila Tagore) will always be the eternal Begum of Pataudi. She is an amazing mother, wife and actor, gorgeous, worldly wise and energetic. We share a close bond. I love going to the Pataudi palace, it’s now home for me”.

She also spoke about her own Kapoor family, “Saif describes us as a crazy, Italian mafia family. There are always 30 dishes on the table and everybody is focussed on the food and drinks. My family is the best thing in my life and no matter which part of the world I am, I will always make it to birthdays and anniversaries. I feel most grounded and connected, when my grandmother (Krishna Raj Kapoor) is around”.

“There’s no formula. Sometimes after 20 years, a relationship just doesn’t work, you meet someone else and something just clicks,” she says, when asked about whether she’s found the key to making a marriage work amidst the showbiz world.

She also denied being in the Sanjay Dutt biopic as Priya Dutt, as the grapevine had suggested, “I don’t know where this bizarre rumour came from. I don’t bother clarifying these things because I don’t think anyone cares. I don’t even know who’s making the film or who’s in it”.

Kapoor Khan will be seen next in ‘Ki and Ka’ which also stars Arjun Kapoor.
