after

I
don’t
experiment,
it’s
going
to
be
never.’

Kareena
Kapoor
looked
gorgeous
when
she
stepped
out
to
announce
a
film
festival
named
after
her.

The
actor,
who
turns
44
on
September
21,
has
been
in
the
film
industry
for
25
years

yes,
it’s
been
*that*
long
since

Refugee

released
in
June
2000

but
says
she
still
feels
like
she
just
gave
her
first
shot
yesterday.

PVR
INOX
Pictures
has
curated
a
film
festival
to
celebrate
25
years
of
Kareena
Kapoor
Khan.
Six
films
iconic
films
of
Kareena
will
be
screened
from
September
20
to
27.

“I
still
have
that
fire
and
that
greed
of
wanting
to
be
in
front
of
the
camera,”
she
says.

 

Kareena
looks
back
at
her
movies
and
still
can’t
believe
that

Jab
We
Met

became
the
kind
of
hit
that
it
did.

“I
was
shooting

Tashan

simultaneously
and
that
was
a
big
film
because
it
had
Akshay
Kumar,
Anil
Kapoor,
Saif
Ali
Khan,
but
in

Jab
We
Met
,
we
were
all
kind
of
new
and
there
were
no
big
names
attached
to
it
at
that
point,”
Kareena
says.

Kareena
looks
back
at
her
latest
film,

The
Buckingham
Murders
,
which
got
some
rave
reviews.

“If
after
25
years,
I
don’t
experiment,
it’s
going
to
be
never.
I’ve
always
tried
to
do
that
with
films
like

Chameli

and

Dev

very
early
on
in
my
career,”
she
says.

“Commercial
films
like

Crew

and

Singham

is
so
much
a
part
of
my
DNA,
but
I
also
want
to
try
out
things
sometimes,
as
an
actor.”
