Add BollywoodShaadis on GoogleBollywood diva Kareena Kapoor Khan recently sparked immense buzz by hosting entrepreneur Mira Rajput on her popular talk show, What Women Want Season 6. For the unversed, Mira is the wife of Kareena's ex-boyfriend, Shahid Kapoor, and thus, the unexpected crossover between the two women got the internet talking. Currently, the gorgeous actress is making headlines for her comments on cosmetic surgery, including Botox.
During a conversation with Barkha Dutt for Mojo Story, the host asked Kareena Kapoor Khan about her opinion on Botox and other cosmetic procedures. Today, such treatments have become the norm for many in showbiz; however, Kareena may be an exception.
The 46-year-old Heroine star said she is absolutely 'against Botox' and prefers to stay natural. Kareena called self-preservation her 'weapon' for preserving her talent and stated:
"I am very against Botox, that I have been very, very honest about. I am for self-preservation in a good sense. Which is being healthy, feeling great, natural therapies. Self preservation is also preserving my talent, because that is my weapon."
Kareena would rather be on a vacation with her family and loved ones than in some clinic undergoing cosmetic enhancement. The Jab We Met actress feels that amid the craze around beauty standards and obsession with going under the knife or getting injectables, people are forgetting to take care of their bodies organically, with good habits and self-preservation. In her words:
"Taking holidays with family and friends, engaging in different things apart from just being on set is also a form of self-preservation. Rather than the needles and going under the knife. That is something that I am all for because people are forgetting that it is so important to preserve your body and mind rather than your injectables."
Kareena Kapoor Khan added that she doesn't want to try any cosmetic treatments in her 40s or later. She finds it 'terrible' that getting work done on one's face and body has become such a trend even among youngsters in their 20s. The actress said she was living her best life without worrying about fillers or other procedures. Sharing that she has never felt better than in her 40s, Kareena mentioned:
"It is terrible where young girls not wanting to look beyond 18 or 20. I am having the best time in my 40s. I have never felt better or even acted better…"
