Kareena Kapoor Khan reveals Jab We Met’s Geet is her favorite character in 25 years of career: ‘Still resonating in a pop-culture way’

As a dedicated follower of Bollywood, I have been fortunate enough to witness Kareena Kapoor Khan‘s remarkable journey over the past 25 years. Her transformation from a bubbly Geet in Jab We Met to the strong-willed characters she plays today is truly inspiring.


Over the past 25 years, Kareena Kapoor Khan has played numerous cherished roles on screen that have captivated audiences. One of these unforgettable characters is Geet from Jab We Met, which happens to be Kareena’s personal favorite too. She recently mentioned that Geet’s impact continues to echo in Indian pop culture today.

At the latest NDTV World Summit, Kareena Kapoor Khan was queried about her preferred role among those she’s portrayed over a 25-year acting career. In reply, she shared fond memories of playing the character Geet from Jab We Met.

Kareena explained, “She embodies a particular Punjabi spirit and a young woman with ambitions who dares to dream grandly and listen to her heart. I believe that’s why the character, even after 20-25 years, continues to echo in popular Indian culture.

Additionally, she pointed out that global viewers appreciate Indian movies as they remain faithful to their cultural roots. Bebo revealed her excitement for the musical numbers. Furthermore, she expressed that while there’s a variety of international cinema, there seems to be a special fondness for the Naatu Naatu performance at the Oscars.
