There is nothing wrong with me: Kareena
Noreen Aslam

BOMBAY—Kareena kapoor has been having a lot of dizzy spells of late. The waif thin actress who collapsed on the sets of Tashan had yet another episode of nausea and dizziness while shooting in Goa for Golmaal Returns. “Kareena had recently claimed that she wanted to be like Victoria Beckham”
Sources claim that the heat and humidity of Goa may have got to her size zero frame. However, Kareena claims that she did not faint but just hurt her knee. Kareena is said to have been having these bouts after she lost oodles of weight for Tashan.
According to sources, Kareena’s size zero figure, has her family concerned about her health. Her dad Randhir Kapoor said, “I have told her to stop the ‘diet business’. She has become quite thin and must not lose more weight, but Bebo tells me that I should go on a diet because I am terribly overweight. Now what can you say to that!”
The actress is looking stylish as ever and even recently claimed that she wanted to be like Victoria Beckham (hopefully for her style and not her vanishing body). Kareena has a huge fan base of mostly young girls who look up to her as a role model. Everyone’s hoping that she’s not sending out the wrong message to her fans. But according to Delhi’s leading dieticians, an increasing number of young girls want to become as thin as her which can have an effect on their heart and bones in the long run.
The industry’s reaction…
The media just loves her new look which is totally out of the box. Ad Man Prahlad Kakkar says, “Now she looks more attractive. She has broken her golu image and now looks like a woman. She doesn’t need to put on weight or else she will again look motu.” Photographer Daboo Ratnani who has been shooting Kareena for over a decade claims, “She has never looked better. The weight loss suits her because her features come out really well, so one gets a stronger picture with all expressions visible.”
Kareena’s response
Her new avatar of 23 inches and 48kgs makes the point that size does sometimes matter to make an impression. A huge amount of endorsements started pouring in once she attained her new look. But Kareena denies ever being on an orange-juice-only diet or even attempting a size-zero figure.
“I am not thin. The media makes me out to be. I don’t diet. One look at me and you know I am quite healthy,” she stated. Even her yoga guru Bharat Thakur with whom Kareena has been working with to lose weight noted that Kareena’s diet doesn’t involve starving to burn calories, but rather, eating healthily. “She’s also been practicing yoga for the past year for 90 minutes every day. She can easily reduce to whichever look she wishes to in a healthy way.”
