During her recent appearance at the NDTV World Summit, Kareena Kapoor Khan was asked what was her favorite character that she has played in 25 years of her career. In response, she talked about Geet from Jab We Met.

Kareena stated, “She represents a certain punjabiness and a girl who has dreams, who wants to dream big and follow her heart, and just do what she wants. And I think that’s how that character, 20-25 years later, is still resonating in a pop-culture way to India.”

She also mentioned that the global audience enjoyed Indian films because they stay true to their heritage. Bebo shared that they waited for the song and dance. She continued by saying that there were various kinds of international cinema, but somewhere people enjoy the Naatu Naatu performance at the Oscars stage.
