Kareena Kapoor Khan has always been refreshingly open about her journey into motherhood, often discussing her children’s routines and habits with her fans. Recently, the actress reflected on her experience of gaining 25 kg during the birth of her second son, Jeh.
She admitted that, initially, the weight gain made her feel insecure. However, Kareena quickly reminded herself that she still felt fabulous in her own skin.
During a book launch event, Kareena exuded confidence, quoting her iconic Jab We Met dialogue, “Main apni favourite hoon” (I’m my favourite person). She explained that self-belief was essential for women to live life to the fullest. "If you reassure yourself every day, it just becomes easy to believe, and then others start believing it. Not that it matters what others think—at least I have always lived like that,” she shared, underlining the importance of self-confidence in her life.
She continued, “After Jeh’s birth, there was a moment when I felt ‘Oh my God, I have to go back and do this all over again’." However, that feeling lasted just for a flash of a second. Soon after, she felt “I was still looking fab. I had gained 25 kgs, not to mention."
Rujuta Diwekar, Kareena’s fitness expert, praised the actress for her unwavering confidence, calling her one of her most self-assured clients. "One of the things I have always loved about Kareena is that she really compliments herself. She tells me, ‘I cannot even tell you how good I am looking’ and ‘I am looking like a stick.’ I love that about her,” Rujuta remarked, highlighting Kareena’s ability to embrace her body and beauty unapologetically.

Kareena also spoke about her love for food, revealing that she had always been a foodie. “I was always a chubby kid. But I was always happy,” she recalled, adding that she has always been comfortable in her skin. “I have never tried to starve to look thin; I am very comfortable in my own skin,” she emphasised, explaining how her healthy relationship with food has helped her maintain a positive body image.
On the professional front, Kareena Kapoor Khan was last seen in Singham Again (2024) and continues to maintain a busy career, with several exciting projects lined up.
