Kareena Kapoor Says She Feels Angry Being Only Remembered Just For Her Roles As 'Geet' And 'Poo'

Kareena Kapoor is undoubtedly one of the most sought-after divas in Tinseltown. She can be credited to have performed in several cult classic films, including Omkara, Tashan, Chameli, Veere De Wedding, Kurbaan, Agent Vinod among so many others. The actress, who is gearing up currently for her first-ever OTT release, however, has predominantly been remembered for two of her classic character portrayals, ‘Geet’ and ‘Poo, from the films, Jab We Met and Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham respectively. And now, the diva shares her take on such selective character bias from her audience.

Kareena Kapoor feels angry for being selectively remembered for two of her roles

During the trailer launch event of her first-ever OTT release, Jaane Jaan, Kareena Kapoor expressed her dissent on being selectively remembered for just two of her roles, ‘Geet’ and ‘Poo’ from the respective films, Jab We Met and Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham. While there’s no doubt that Bebo performed exceptionally well in both of them, however, she feels people need to acknowledge some of her other iconic performances, and not just be biased with two. Expressing how she wishes to break such a biased stereotype, Kareena said:

“As an actor, you want to try and do something different every time. For me, it is difficult because I've been known for playing Poo and Geet... This thing has been fixed in people's minds. So, that has been a conscious effort that now I want to do different things. They don't think of the films that I've done in the past such as Dev, Chameli, and others. But I'm going to keep trying to do different things. I know that they will keep coming back to Poo and Geet. I've done quite a few intense roles but you all remember only Poo and Geet. I feel very angry about it. Like, Omkara was also intense.”
