Kareena Kapoor Khan opens up on her ''coolest" father!

The Kapoor family, one of Bollywood's most illustrious families and usually referred to as the "first family of Hindi cinema," is the lineage of Kareena Kapoor Khan. This is true since Raj Kapoor, her grandfather, was a pioneer in Hindi cinema, and her great-grandfather, Prithviraj Kapoor, was one of the most well-known performers of his time. The Kapoor family, however, had an unspoken rule prohibiting women from working in the film industry. The truth is that none of her acting aunts, either those who were born into the Kapoor family or those who married into it, continued acting after they got married. Karisma, Kareena's older sister, was the first member of the family to choose acting as a career and to succeed as a star in her own right.

Kareena Kapoor Khan recently spoke with a daily and expressed admiration for her father Randhir Kapoor. She revealed, "I think my father has been one of the coolest fathers ever." Raj Kapoor was her father; he is the actor Babita Kapoor's spouse. Even Randhir's debut feature film, Kal Aaj Aur Kal, which also starred Raj Kapoor and Prithviraj Kapoor, was a result of their cooperation. She said that he supported her job choices at all times, even when she decided to pursue an acting career—unusual for a Kapoor woman.

Bebo also talked about the reasons why there aren't any films starring Kapoor women. "Times were different" back then, she remarked. "Back in the 1970s and stuff, it was different because times were different. That when they got married they never really worked, but I’m glad that my father moved with the times because that’s what it is about. You have to keep changing yourself for your children. That’s also important, and not live in archaic times," the Jab We Met actress revealed.

Kareena recalled her father's support for Karisma and added that although it was challenging for Karisma to be one of the first Kapoor women to pursue an acting career, her father was always encouraging. Kareena added that her father has always been a terrific friend and mentor to her and that he is a very cosmopolitan and open-minded individual.
