Mumbai, April 09: She admits that no position in the film industry is permanent but at the same time Kareena Kapoor is excited after replacing Aishwarya Rai in Filmfare`s power list. The actress says the position is both flattering and scary as it comes with a lot of responsibilities.
"I think Aishwarya has had a great innings. I think it`s a great honour to be where she was in the power list. Power equations in the entertainment industry change minute by minute. I`m definitely going to try my best to hold that position," Kareena told reporters.
Kareena, who was seen in last year`s hit "Golmaal Returns", admits the power comes not just from the movies, but also the products that one endorses.
"But I make sure the products reflect my personality. I`m endorsing 10 brands. Saif and I are endorsing just one brand together. We`re going easy on signing together," she said.
Excerpts:
Q: It`s quite an honour to zoom to the top 10 of the power list and to be the only woman there.
A: It`s flattering. And it`s scary. Lots of responsibilities. My power comes from my honesty to myself and to my work. I`ve always done things that come naturally from my heart. It`s amazing that I`m in the power list although I`ve never applied much thought to the process of getting there. I`m all heart, as you well know. At the end of the day, being true to myself is very important.
Q: Earlier Aishwarya Rai was in the Top 10 list.
A: Yes, I know. Everyone has a chance to be in a certain position. I think Aishwarya has had a great innings. I think it`s a great honour to be where she was in the power list. Power equations in the entertainment industry change minute by minute. I`m definitely going to try my best to hold that position.
The position makes me feel very responsible. I want to keep doing the kind of work that will keep me in that list. Last year I was seen in a successful film `Golmaal Returns` where I didn`t have a pivotal role. Strangely audiences expect me to take centre stage all the time.
Q: How much of this power comes in a package with beau Saif Ali Khan?
A: We can`t deny he`s also one of the hottest actors in the industry. I think we are blend of looks and spirit. Saif and I are very alike. He also follows his heart and is very honest in what he does. Whether it`s his professional or personal life, he comes clean.
Q: The power comes not just from the movies but also the products that you endorse.
A: I agree. But I make sure the products reflect my personality. My products are young, zestful, fun and classy. Yeah, I do a lot of endorsements. I`m endorsing 10 brands. Curiously Saif and I are endorsing just one brand together. We`re going easy on signing together.
Q: So will you continue to be known as Kareena Kapoor after marriage?
A: I haven`t thought of it. Kareena Kapoor Khan sounds good. I leave the decision to Saif.
Q: Did (close friend) Amrita Arora`s marriage make you wishful for your own?
A: I am with Saif constantly. For us, marriage is just a piece of paper.
