As I entered the suite, she came into the living room, a vision in a lilac and purple dress. She gave me a warm smile and said “Pleased to meet you”. I was nervous as hell but was trying my best to put up a calm demeanor and the only thought running in my mind was “Is this for real”???.
The lady in question is the stunning Kareena Kapoor Khan and thanks to Vivel by ITC, last week I got the chance to interact with her on a one on basis when she was in Kolkata. We spoke about her association with Vivel, her skincare regime and her upcoming movies. Kareena obviously has wonderful skin and on that day, she was wearing no makeup except for a hint of lipstick and some eye shadow, kajal/liner and she looked radiant. I had to ask how she maintains this radiance despite her gruelling schedule and she said that she is genetically blessed and that she does not really do anything special except taking care of her diet and exercising regularly. She drinks a lot of water, atleast 8-10 glasses a day, avoids oily, fried food and sweets. She also mentioned that her days of excessive dieting and control are over and she just has everything in moderation now. Being a vegetarian, her options are limited but she has a lot of green salads, leafy vegetables, soups and drinks coconut water. And one of the Bengali vegetarian dishes she really likes is Alu Posto!
Kareena has been associated with Vivel for the last seven years and to her, its like family. She is extremely proud to be the face of Vivel and believes in the brand’s philosophy of promoting healthy, radiant and nourished skin with natural ingredients. I asked her whether there is any particular skincare tip that has been passed on to her by her grandmom and mom and she said that they firmly believe in the nourishing properties of almond milk. Make the milk at home, mix it with some yoghurt and apply it to the skin. She also mentioned that Karisma Kapoor actually is a lot more diligent in doing this than herself 🙂
We also spoke about her upcoming movies, Ki and Ka which is based on marital relationships and Udta Punjab which is about drug abuse in Punjab. Kareena is very excited to play strong roles in these movies and she hopes that the audience will like them. ITC did shoot a video of the entire interview so I shall be putting up snippets very soon once I get it and you can see what else we spoke about (Ignore my interviewing skill though. I was nervous!) . I also clicked a picture with her which I’ve posted on Instagram. Follow me @poutpretty and check it out 🙂
Thank you ITC and thank you Vivel for this opportunity. I’ve always liked Kareena and to actually interview her was such a great experience. Before I sign off, here’s Kareena Kapoor Khan wishing all of you a very Happy Diwali!
