"My career is top priority, I won't give it up" - Kareena
What
is
this
about
you
being
the
highest
paid
actor
in
India?
I
don't
know
what
other
actors
get
paid.
And
I
don't
care.
I
get
what
I
deserve.
I've
slogged
right
from
Refugee
to
Jab
We
Met
and
Tashan.
An
actor
is
signed
for
what
he/she
can
deliver.
Is
your
price
flexible?
I've
always
been
flexible
with
my
fee.
The
hunger
is
for
the
right
roles.
There
were
many
heightened
expectations
from
your
last
release
Tashan
because
of
Saif
and
you?
We
just
did
what
the
script
required
us
to.
I
don't
think
people
should've
gone
to
see
Tashan
as
Saif
and
my
love
story.
What
does
that
mean,
yaar?
We're
playing
characters.
That's
why
Jab
We
Met
worked.
The
characters
worked.
I
had
earlier
done
so
many
films
with
Shahid
while
we
were
seeing
each
other.
They
didn't
work.
Why?
You
tell
me
Today
it's
the
script
that
works.
All
actors
are
hungry
for
the
right
scripts
and
characters.
All
the
attention
given
to
your
relationship
with
Saif
does
that
scare
you?
I
can't
stop
living
my
life
the
way
I
want
to
just
because
of
the
attention.
As
long
as
I
don't
let
my
family
down,
I'm
not
scared.
I'll
always
retain
my
values.
But
yes,
at
times
this
endless
attention
does
get
scary.
There're
so
many
false
stories
about
Saif
and
me.
But
it's
ok.
I
understand
the
need
to
know
what's
going
in
our
lives.
Are
we
married...are
we
not
married?
Please!
Fortunately,
I've
learnt
to
take
all
this
unwanted
speculation
in
my
stride.
The
best
thing
is
to
keep
doing
my
work
and
not
get
affected
by
the
loose
talk.
Are
you
fully
comfortable
in
your
relationship
with
Saif?
Yes.
But
only
the
two
people
in
a
relationship
know
what
is
going
on.
I
don't
think
people
have
the
right
to
know
what's
going
on
in
my
private
life.
They've
my
films
to
judge
me
with.
I
don't
need
to
give
explanations
about
what
happens
behind
my
closed
doors.
Right
now
I'm
loving
it
(laughs).
The
paparazzi
are
doing
their
job.
We're
doing
ours.
Both
Saif
and
I
understand
that.
The
two
of
you
don't
have
that
much
work
together.
No
after
Tashan
we
only
have
Rensil
D'Silva's
film
together.
Both
of
us
are
too
sensible
to
sign
films
just
to
spend
time
together.
Saif
is
way
too
mature
and
extremely
understanding.
He
respects
the
kind
of
work
I
like
to
do
as
I
respect
his
work.
And
we
keep
our
careers
apart.
Saif
knows
that
right
now
my
career
is
the
most
important
thing
to
me.
And
that
I
need
the
space
to
work.
To
my
family
and
me,
my
career
is
top
priority.
Because
I've
worked
really
hard
to
get
where
I
am.
You
as
a
friend
have
watched
my
struggle.
My
family
and
friends
know
how
much
I've
slogged.
I
won't
give
it
up
for
anything.
So
career
wins
over
love.
There's
no
comparison
between
the
two.
When
I'm
working
I'm
working.
And
when
I'm
with
him
I'm
all
there.
Besides,
Saif
is
a
superstar
himself.
He's
so
busy.
How
do
you
rate
him
as
an
actor?
I
think
he
is
a
10
on
10.
The
way
he
can
make
audiences
laugh
and
cry
is
amazing.
And
his
one-liners
are
extremely
entertaining.
And
we're
both
moody.
So
that's
fine.
After
Jab
We
Met,
do
you
think
you've
moved
into
a
different
league?
My
new
journey
began
earlier
with
Omkara.
I
began
to
learn
a
lot
about
myself
through
Vishal
Bhardwaj.
Don't
know
about
a
different
league.
But
I
do
feel
more
responsible
towards
my
career.
Some
people
expect
the
roles
that
come
to
me
after
Jab
We
Met
have
to
be
like
'Geet'.
That's
not
possible.
In
Tashan
too,
I've
had
a
fantastic
role.
But
it
isn't
'Geet'.
In
fact,
I
wanted
my
look
and
role
in
Tashan
to
be
totally
different
from
what
I
did
in
Jab
We
Met.
And
I
think
I've
succeeded.
The
two
characters
and
films
are
totally
apart.
Have
you
turned
anorexic?
No,
I
haven't.
I
think
I
had
a
good
physique
even
before
I
re-sculpted
myself
for
Tashan.
In
fact,
a
lot
people
preferred
me
when
I
was
a
little
weightier.
They
think
I
was
more
charming
earlier.
So
I
repeat,
this
look
is
just
for
Tashan.
People
say
I've
been
on
an
orange
juice
diet.
I
hate
it.
The
only
juice
I
take
is
cranberry.
And
I
eat
healthily,
though
I'm
a
pure
vegetarian.
Being
a
vegetarian
diet
helps
me
to
stay
light
and
healthy.
I
also
do
yoga
or
some
form
of
exercise
4-5
times
a
week.
I
do
not
go
to
the
gym.
I
go
for
walks
regularly.
I
believe
in
healthy
slimming.
Eat
well
and
stay
fit.
You
can't
be
binging
on
chocolates
all
the
time.
But
it's
okay
to
indulge
yourself.
I
do
so
once
or
twice
a
week.
Like
all
Kapoors,
I
can't
stay
away
from
good
food.
You
seem
to
have
it
all.
'Kisi
ki
nazar
na
lag
jaye'?
I
am
bogged
down
by
all
the
attention.
I'm
human
after
all.
But
being
a
star
isn't
easy.
Of
course,
I'm
a
little
sacred.
I'm
treading
cautiously
personally
and
professionally.
How
excited
are
you
about
your
current
assignments?
All
my
current
assignments
are
completely
different
from
one
another.
I'm
so
excited
about
working
with
Aamir
Khan
in
Raj
Kumar
Hirani's
film.
3
Idiots
is
a
comedy
with
a
social
message.
