Kareena Kapoor is aging like fine wine. She turned 43 today, but the grace she exudes makes us doubt if she is a mama of two. The actress is currently busy promoting her upcoming film, Jaane Jaan, which also marks her OTT debut. It also stars Vijay Varma and Jaideep Ahlawat. In a recent interaction with Anupama Chopra, she expressed her views about Bollywood redefining desirability.
The discussion comes amidst Kareena Kapoor playing the `hot padosan` in Netflix`s Jaane Jaan. The thriller drama was released today, coinciding with Bebo`s birthday.

“It’s a great time. I have two children, and I’m a proud wife, proud homemaker, and proud mother. I also love my glamorous side, which I know my fans connect to. And they’ve been so loyal. It doesn’t matter that I’ve been married and have two children. Age is just a number. I’m turning 43. It’s a great time to be in the movies. And ‘hot padosan’? I think it’s a great compliment," the actress said.
When asked about how the industry at times can be notoriously ageist, Bebo said she has only become wiser with age.

“Having seen so many failures and successes in the industry, film’s happen and don’t happen, it makes you a strong person. For me, everything happened at the right time. I got married, and I had children. I decided to work. I’m at peace with the work I’m getting; that also relaxes you," Kareena further added.
The Veere Di Wedding actress said she doesn`t want to hide her age. In fact, she has never run away from growing older.
“I’m not trying to Photoshop my images too much. Sometimes people say, ‘No, no, you should’. I’m like, ‘Some days I’m going to look tired, because I’m human, and my fans should know that.’ We’re not always going to be 20, and thank God for that; I don’t want to be 20. I’m having the time of my life, and I’m still the ‘hot padosan’.” Bebo added.
Jaane Jaan was released today on Netflix. It continues to garner positive reviews from audiences and film critics.
