After Mrunal Thakur, netizens call out Kareena Kapoor for her old interviews; actress once said, 'Sanjay Bhansali is a confused director, I'll most definitely marry Shahid Kapoor'
The actress, who was supposed to do his 2002 magnum opus Devdas, said, 'He's a confused director. He is a person who does not stand by his words." Kareena Kapoor Khan is one of the finest and versatile actresses of Bollywood. In her illustrious career of over two decades, the gorgeous diva has delivered several memorable performances and blockbusters. She is one of the highest-paid actresses in showbiz and earns Rs 10 to Rs 15 crore per project. In a recent interview, Kareena opened up about her achievements and revealed that she doesn't pick projects by looking at the money aspect of it. But there are a lot of old interviews of the actress that have gone viral, just what happened with Mrunal Thakur. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD On Sanjay Leela Bhansali The actress, who was supposed to do his 2002 magnum opus Devdas, said, 'He's a confused director. He is a person who does not stand by his words. He doesn't have any morals and principles in life.' Kareena Kapoor added, 'Tomorrow if he becomes a Guru Dutt or a Raj Kapoor and I become a flop actress, I will never work with him.' On Shahid Kapoor 'I'll most definitely marry him. I'm not the kind to jump from one relationship to another.' When asked about Hrithik Roshan's Kaho Naa Pyaar Hai, which she was doing earlier, Kareena was quoted saying, 'If I were in the film, I would have definitely got a better deal. The attention would have been divided between us (Hrithik). So I'm glad I didn't do the film.' What netizens are saying about the actress One wrote- ' 'Preity is Much Older Than Me'…Genuinely asking, do people normally consider 5 years to be 'much older' than someone?' A second said, 'She was very visibly proud of her young age back then, idky. That's not something to be proud of , you were born later than the other, so what !? That and her beauty , basically she had this 'pimp' like mentality when it came to actresses and herself, I am young and pretty and fair and glamourous, I'd sell more." STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD A third commented- 'People think she has changed now but i think she has only become image conscious. She has always been mean. I still think it was very mean of her to call Sonakshi a house wife material on KWK, that was like hitting someone below the belt. Especially when Sona has always been on the heavier side & had been bullied in school for it.'

'Meant For Global Domination': Kareena Kapoor Wishes Priyanka Chopra With RARE Photo
Last Updated: Kareena Kapoor wished Priyanka Chopra with a throwback photo and a heartfelt message. Back in the day, the stars reportedly got into a tiff during an event in Belgium. Kareena Kapoor wished once-rival Priyanka Chopra on her birthday today, July 18, with a rare throwback photo. She also wrote a beautiful birthday wish for PeeCee, which proves that the two reigning stars have buried old hatchets and are on great terms now. The duo last appeared together in Karan Johar's Koffee With Karan in 2019. Kareena Kapoor posted a photo with Priyanka Chopra on the stage from a throwback event. In the picture, PeeCee was seen gently fixing Kareena's makeup. She wrote atop the photo, 'You were always meant for global domination. Keep soaring PCJ, no one like you. Happy birthday." Take a look: For the unversed, Kareena Kapoor and Priyanka Chopra shared the screen for the first time in the 2004 Akshay Kumar starrer Aitraaz. Following the film's release, rumours of a catfight between the two actors began to surface, with reports suggesting that tensions escalated during a concert they performed together in Antwerp, Belgium. In conversation with Mid-Day, Kareena was asked if she had a 'huge fight" with Priyanka that 'almost came to blows." Brushing off the speculation, the Laal Singh Chadha actor said, 'No, no, no, all rubbish. I was like, 'What is going on?' But I think maybe we all had that energy – you know, some sort of thing, where we were all wanting to prove ourselves." She also reflected on the competitive atmosphere of the industry back in the '90s and early 2000s, when the media often highlighted alleged rivalries among female actors. 'Oh God! The '90s were full of it (catfights), the '90s started, and in 2000, everyone was having a catfight. Kuch bhi bol do (you say anything) and catfight. Today, I mean, you don't even hear those things, you know. Who knows? It must be happening as a thought, but things are a little different and more chilled out (now)," she added. Kareena-Priyanka's KWK history During an episode of Koffee With Karan Season 3, Kareena made a remark about Priyanka's accent. When Karan Johar asked her what she would like to ask Priyanka, Kareena replied, 'I wonder where Priyanka got her accent from." In another episode of the same season, Priyanka responded to Kareena's comment about her accent. Addressing Kareena's 'question,' Priyanka said, 'I think it's the same place that her boyfriend (now husband Saif Ali Khan) gets it from." Eventually, to put their 'tiff' to rest, Priyanka Chopra and Kareena Kapoor appeared together on Koffee With Karan Season 6, indicating that all was well between them.

Attending the event as the L'Oreal brand ambassador, Alia took to share glimpses of what her Day 2 at Cannes looked like on her YouTube channel. Amid all the glitz and glamour, what caught the internet's attention was the hotel that she was staying at in the French Riviera, addressed her as 'Dear Alia Kapoor.' What's Happening Alia Bhatt shared a BTS video of her getting glammed up for Day 2 at the recently held Cannes Film Festival 2025. She debuted at the celebrated event as the L'Oreal brand ambassador.

Alia Kapoor? Reddit deduces Alia Bhatt has legally changed name after marriage to Ranbir Kapoor; here's 'proof'
Alia Bhatt made her red carpet debut at the Cannes Film Festival last month, wowing fans with her chic appearance as the L'Oreal brand ambassador at the festival. The actor recently shared a vlog of herself getting ready for the moment, giving a sneak peek at some behind-the-scenes moments. What caught the internet's eye was how the hotel where she stayed at addressed her as 'Alia Kapoor', sparking speculations that the actor may have legally changed her name. (Also read: Ranbir Kapoor-Alia Bhatt's new Mumbai bungalow looks ready) The vlog, posted on Alia's official YouTube channel, shows the actor in her hotel room on the French Riviera. At one point in the video, Alia gets dressed and has her hair and makeup done by her team. In the background, the hotel's message for her is visible on an LCD. The message is addressed to 'Dear Alia Kapoor', implying that Alia has adopted the Kapoor surname since her wedding to Ranbir. The screengrab of the moment was shared on Reddit by some eagle-eyed fans. The top comment to the post read, "Must've taken her husband's name and kept Bhatt for her public-facing career since she is widely known by that surname." Others argued that the hotel may have erroneously written that. But Redditors said that since international hotels use booking IDs for such messages, it was likely Alia had legally changed her name. "How will a hotel in France know her husband's surname? 🤷🏼♀️ anyway, hotel booking is done according to your legal name on ID's," reasoned one Reddit user. While the internet debated the logic behind Alia changing her name - some dissed patriarchy while others called it her choice - many felt that Alia needs to remain a Bhatt as it's a 'brand' now. "But she's always be Alia Bhatt to me, naam mein wajan aagaya hai abhi (the name carries some heft). It's a brand name now," argued one. Another harked back to Alia's appearance on Koffee With Karan a couple of years ago and asked, "I thought it was "Alia Bhatt Kapoor" as she mentioned it on KWK. Ranveer got very happy and said it's got a ring to it." Alia Bhatt and Ranbir Kapoor tied the knot in April 2022 after years of dating. The two met on the sets of their 2022 film Brahmastra. Alia and Ranbir welcomed their daughter, Raha, in November 2022. Alia will be next seen on the screen in YRF Spy Universe's Alpha, the first female-led spy universe film. It also stars Sharvari.
