Kareena Kapoor Khan is well-known for her versatility and dedication to acting. Even though she has a packed schedule with several movie releases planned for this year, Kareena balances her work commitments while giving priority to her role as a mother to her two children. The actor emphasized the significance of 'mental strength and mental happiness' while discussing the balance of having a successful career, fame, and a loving family. 

Kareena Kapoor Khan opens up about her mental health

Recently, during an interaction with ABP Summit, Kareena Kapoor Khan mentioned that she believes everyone, regardless of gender, can achieve everything they desire. However, what she values the most is her happiness. She emphasized that her mental stability contributes to her happiness, which she considers paramount. Without mental strength and happiness, fame, wealth, career, family, or children lose their significance.

She said, “I think women, every human can have it all, men, women, everybody. But I think what I have, what I count most important amongst all these things, is that I'm happy. And happiness is something that I have because my happiness is my mental stability. And fame, money, career husband, kids, everything falls short if that mental strength and mental happiness is not there. So for me, that is the most important thing that a woman should preserve. Self preservation leads to happiness.”

When questioned about a facet of Kareena that remains unknown to most, the actor responded, saying that certain aspects should be safeguarded and kept a mystery, allowing room for speculation. This preserves the intrigue around her persona, as many tend to associate her solely with her iconic characters like Geet or Poo, which she has intentionally cultivated to keep audiences guessing. She said “Like I said some things should be preserved, should be kept a little bit for the unknown. So that feeling of okay, do we really know her or most people assume that I am either Geet or Poo (her characters from Jab We Met and Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham) and I made them believe that could be a possibility.”

She mentioned that she has led people to believe that those characters could be a part of her, but there's a side she prefers to keep private. She believes that maintaining this privacy contributes to her mental well-being and stability. Without this boundary, she feels actors would struggle under constant scrutiny and judgment.
