Kareena Kapoor Khan is known for playing a lot of versatile roles but the actress has never performed a sexual scene on-screen. In one of her recent interviews, she spoke about her decision not to do so.
She explained that people do not look at sex as a human experience and we need to respect it before putting it on screen. She shared, “It’s just the way we look at the whole idea. We don’t look at sexuality or sex as a human experience. We have to start looking [at] and respecting that a lot more before we put it on screen. It’s my belief.”
Talking further about why she had not been interested in doing a sex scene, Bebo continued, “I personally feel that it’s not important to take a story forward. It’s not something that I believe that is required, in the form of a story. I know I will not be comfortable doing that. I have never done it. From where I come from, we are still not as open as having the narrative the way it is out there for you guys, the way you can feel it so openly. While female desire is openly tackled in the West, it’s always been so open about it.”
While the actress never performed sexual scenes on screen, she played a sex worker in the 2003 film Chameli. She called it a turning point in her career because the role helped her tap into her confidence. She also shared that she realized a lot of things including the fact that she didn’t have to conform to the traditional notions like looking a particular way.
Kareena continued, “I kind of realized a lot of things. The fact that I didn’t have to conform to the traditional notions like looking a particular way of femininity, or being beautiful, because she was so brash and unapologetic. I think that was a form of beauty which I really appreciate. I am happy that I got to play that part. It pushed me to be more fearless.”
