Kareena Kapoor Said Salman Khan Is 'A Very Bad Actor': 'I Don't Like Him'
Kareena Kapoor said that Shah Rukh Khan was her favourite of the three superstar Khans in Bollywood.
Kareena Kapoor Khan, one of Bollywood's most versatile actresses, has shared the screen with the three Khans—Shah Rukh, Salman, and Aamir—delivering memorable performances and box office hits. However, while Shah Rukh Khan reigns as her favourite and Aamir Khan comes second, Kareena doesn't think Salman Khan is a good actor, based on an old interview.
In an earlier interview with Umesh Jivnani, Kareena didn't hold back while expressing her honest take on the three Khans. 'I'm totally in love with him. Don't even ask me about him because if I start, I won't stop talking about him for hours. Amitabh Bachchan and Shah Rukh are the only two actors I admire," she said.
Kareena Kapoor appreciated Shah Rukh Khan's 'boy-next-door' charm and added that this appeal makes girls want to take him home to meet their parents. She mentioned that SRK's acting amuses her.
As for Aamir Khan, Kareena said, 'Aamir's good. I really liked him in Hum Hain Rahi Pyar Ke and QSQT, but out of the Khans, I'm a total Shah Rukh fan." While Kareena appreciated SRK and Aamir's acting chops, she said Salman Khan was not a good actor. She opined, 'I'm not at all a Salman fan. I don't like him; he's a very bad actor. I tell him that he hams all the time."
Kareena Kapoor has worked with the three Khans for films of different genres. With Shah Rukh Khan, Kareena starred in Asoka (2001), where she played the fierce Kaurwaki opposite SRK's warrior king. Later, in Ra.One (2011), she played a modern, playful role in this sci-fi adventure, showcasing their chemistry in a contemporary setting.
Kareena's collaboration with Aamir Khan has been particularly impactful. 3 Idiots (2009), where she played Pia, became a cultural phenomenon and remains one of Indian cinema's most iconic films. In Laal Singh Chaddha (2022), their chemistry shone again in a heartfelt story spanning decades.
Her pairing with Salman Khan has been more frequent. In Bodyguard (2011), she played the strong-willed Divya, and their on-screen bond contributed to the film's massive commercial success. They also co-starred in Kyon Ki (2005) and Main Aurr Mrs Khanna (2009), showing a mix of romance and drama. Together with the Khans, Kareena has displayed her range, be it romance, drama, or comedy, cementing her legacy as one of Bollywood's enduring female stars.
