Plot
Memoirs is an intimate portrait of 4 voices that have yet to be heard and their inner most thoughts and feelings towards their Double Minority. Memoirs characters are based upon the four strongest emotions one in confronted with in the face of adversity (Anger, Sad, Love and Empowered). These emotions are the undertones for their voices throughout the film. The film explores these differences and shows them in a very up-close and personal first hand look.
Sadness is emotional pain associated with, or characterized by feelings of disadvantage, loss, despair, helplessness, sorrow, and rage. These feelings of certain things are usually negative. When one is sad, people often become outspoken, less energetic, and emotional. Crying is an indication of sadness.
Sadness can be viewed as a temporary lowering of mood, whereas depression is more chronic.
Sadness is one of Paul Ekman's "six basic emotions - happy, sad, angry, surprised, afraid, disgusted".
'Being sad is a common experience in childhood. If faced openly, sadness can help families become stronger and more able to handle painful feelings'. On the other hand, some families may have the (conscious or unconscious) rule: 'No sadness allowed...we were not allowed to be sad...a matter of family pride'. The problem may then be that 'that screened-off emotion isn't available to us when we need it....the loss of sadness makes us a bit manic'.
Sadness is part of the normal process of the child separating from an early symbiosis with the mother and becoming more independent. 'Every time a child separates just a tiny bit more, he'll have to cope with a small loss. He'll have to get sad for a little bit'; and if the mother cannot bear this, 'if she dashes right in to relieve the child's distress every single time he shows any...the child is not getting a chance to learn how to cope with sadness'. This is why 'trying to jostle or joke out of a sad mood is devaluing to her' or him: 'we need to respect a child's right to experience a loss fully and deeply'.

After making her acting debut in the 2000 war drama Refugee, Kapoor's early years in the film industry were successful; she received a Filmfare nomination for Asoka (2001) and appeared in the melodrama Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham... the same year, one of her biggest commercial successes to date. This was followed by a series of commercial failures and repetitive roles, which garnered her negative reviews. She portrayed a sex worker in Chameli (2004), the turning point in her career, and starred in the critically acclaimed films Dev (2004) and Omkara (2006). Kapoor played the lead female role in the romantic comedy Jab We Met (2007, which earned her the Filmfare Award for Best Actress) and the dramedy 3 Idiots (2009, the highest-grossing Bollywood film of all time).

Born into a film family in Mumbai on 21 September 1980, Kapoor (often informally referred to as 'Bebo')[4] is the younger daughter of Randhir Kapoor and Babita (née Shivdasani);[5] her elder sister Karisma is also an actress. She is the granddaughter of actor and filmmaker Raj Kapoor and niece of actor Rishi Kapoor. According to Kapoor, the name "Kareena" was derived from the book Anna Karenina, which her mother read while she was pregnant with her.[6] She is of Punjabi descent on her father's side,[7] and Sindhi on her mother's side.[8]
Describing herself as a "very naughty [and] spoilt child", Kapoor's exposure to films from a young age kindled her interest in acting;[3] she was particularly inspired by the work of actors Nargis and Meena Kumari.[9] Despite her family background, her father disapproved of women entering films because he believed it conflicted with the traditional maternal duties and responsibility of women in the family.[10] This led to a conflict between her parents, and they separated.[11] She was then raised by her mother, who worked several jobs to support her daughters until Karisma debuted as an actress in 1991.[12] After living separately for several years, her parents reconciled in October 2007.[11] Kapoor remarked "My father is also an important factor in my life [...] [Al]though we did not see him often in our initial years, we are a family now."[12]
Kapoor attended Jamnabai Narsee School in Mumbai, followed by Welham Girls' School in Dehradun.[9] She attended the institution primarily to satisfy her mother, though later admitted to liking the experience.[3] According to Kapoor, she was a good student and received first-class honours in all subjects except mathematics.[3] After graduating from Welham she studied commerce for two years at Mithibai College in Vile Parle (Mumbai).[9] Kapoor then registered for a three-month summer course in microcomputers at Harvard University in the United States.[9] She later developed an interest in law, and enrolled at the Government Law College, Mumbai; during this period, she developed a long-lasting passion for reading.[9] However, after completing her first year, Kapoor decided to pursue her interest to become an actress.[13] She began training at an acting institute in Mumbai mentored by Kishore Namit Kapoor, a member of the Film and Television Institute of India (FTII).[14]
While training at the institute, Kapoor was cast as the female lead in Rakesh Roshan's Kaho Naa... Pyaar Hai (2000) opposite his son, Hrithik Roshan.[9] Several days into the filming, however, she abandoned the project; Kapoor later explained that she had benefited by not doing the film since more prominence was given to the director's son.[9] She debuted later that year alongside Abhishek Bachchan in J. P. Dutta's war drama Refugee. Set during the Indo-Pakistani war of 1971, the film centers on a man who illegally transports civilians back and forth across the border. Kapoor portrayed Naaz, a Bangladeshi girl who falls in love with Bachchan's character while illegally migrating to Pakistan with her family. Her performance was acclaimed by critics; Taran Adarsh of Bollywood Hungama wrote that Kapoor "has a magnetic personality, which will make the viewer fall in love with her instantly. What surprises you is the ease with which she emotes the most difficult of scenes [...] There is no denying the fact that she is a natural performer who is very camera friendly."[15] On the experience of acting in her first film, Kapoor described it as "tough ... [but] also a great learning experience".[9] Refugee was a moderate box-office success in India[16] and Kapoor's performance earned her the Filmfare Award for Best Female Debut.[17]
For her second release, Kapoor was paired opposite Tusshar Kapoor in Satish Kaushik's box office success Mujhe Kucch Kehna Hai (2001).[18] A review in The Hindu noted that based on her first two films, she was "definitely the actress to watch out for".[19] She next starred in Subhash Ghai's family drama Yaadein alongside Jackie Shroff and Hrithik Roshan, which received negative reviews and was unsuccessful at the box office.[18] Later that year, she appeared in Santosh Sivan's period epic Asoka opposite Shahrukh Khan. The film was selected for the Venice and 2001 Toronto International Film Festivals, and received generally positive reviews.[20] Kapoor's portrayal of Kaurwaki—a Kalingan princess, with whom Ashoka falls in love—received mixed reactions from critics; Rediff.com concluded that her presence in the film was primarily used for aesthetic purposes.[21] She later received her first nomination for Best Actress at the 47th Filmfare Awards.[17]
Kapoor's final release of 2001 was Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham... in which she featured part of an ensemble cast. Directed by Karan Johar, the melodrama became India's second highest-grossing film of the year and Kapoor's highest-grossing film to that point.[18] It also became one of the biggest Bollywood success of all time in the overseas market, earning over 1 billion (US${{#invoke:Math|precision_format| 17,200,000/1E6 | 0}} million) worldwide.[22] Kapoor's performance as Poo (a good-natured, superficial girl) was described by Taran Adarsh as "one of the main highlights of the film",[23] and earned her a Filmfare Best Supporting Actress nomination.[17]
During 2002 and 2003, Kapoor experienced a setback in her career. All six films in which she starred —Mujhse Dosti Karoge!, Jeena Sirf Merre Liye, Talaash: The Hunt Begins..., Khushi, Main Prem Ki Diwani Hoon, and the four-hour war epic LOC Kargil — were critically and commercially unsuccessful.[24][25] Critics described Kapoor's performances as unoriginal, repetitive, an uninspired;[5] they expressed concern that she was becoming typecast. These negative reviews motivated her to accept more challenging roles.[26][27]
The year 2004 marked Kapoor's work in a series of films that would bring her critical acclaim.[26] Under the direction of Sudhir Mishra, Kapoor essayed the role of a golden-hearted prostitute in Chameli, a film relating the story of a young prostitute who meets with a widowed investment banker (played by Rahul Bose). When Kapoor was initially offered the film she refused it, explaining that she would be uncomfortable in the role.[27] She relented when Mishra approached her for the second time, viewing it as an opportunity to demonstrate her acting range.[27] Chameli was well received by critics and the film marked a significant turning point in her career,[26] earning Kapoor the Filmfare Special Performance Award.[28] Indiatimes praised her "intuitive brilliance" and stated that she had exceeded all expectations.[29] Rediff.com, however, found her portrayal unconvincing and excessively stereotypical, describing her as "sounding more like a teenager playacting than a brash, hardened streetwalker" and comparing her mannerisms to a caricature.[30]
Kapoor next co-starred in Mani Ratnam's bilingual project Yuva alongside Ajay Devgan, Abhishek Bachchan, Vivek Oberoi, Rani Mukerji and Esha Deol. The film, consisting of three chapters, tells the story of six individuals linked by a car accident. Kapoor is featured in the third chapter as Oberoi's love interest (Mira, a witty young woman). In a Times of India review film critic Subhash K Jha described her role as "fey and insubstantial", but further stated that "she turns these character traits to her own advantage to create a girl who is at once enigmatic and all-there".[31] She then appeared alongside Amitabh Bachchan and Fardeen Khan in Govind Nihalani's critically acclaimed film Dev, which revolved around the 2002 Hindu-Muslim riots in the Indian state of Gujarat.[32] Kapoor's role was that of a Muslim victim named Aaliya, modelled after Zaheera Sheikh (a key witness in Vadodara's Best Bakery case).[32] It earned her a Filmfare Critics Award for Best Actress and nominations for Best Actress at various award ceremonies.[17] Taran Adarsh noted that she was "first-rate" and in particular noted her scene with Bachchan's character.[33]
Shortly afterwards, Kapoor was cast for the first time as a villain in the thriller Fida. Set against the backdrop of the Mumbai underworld, the film follows the story of an online heist in which her character, Neha Mehra, becomes involved. During the filming of Fida Kapoor began a romantic relationship with co-actor Shahid Kapoor, whom she later described as having "a major positive influence in my life".[34] Although the film was unsuccessful at the box office[35] Kapoor received positive reviews for her performance, and some critics noted a distinct progression from her earlier roles.[36] Her subsequent releases that year included Abbas-Mustan's thriller Aitraaz and Priyadarshan's comedy Hulchul, both of which were successful at the Indian box office.[35] Following the success of her last two releases, she was cast as the protagonist of the 2005 drama Bewafaa. The feature received mostly negative reviews, and Kapoor's portrayal of Anjali Sahai (an unfaithful woman) was not well received. Nikhat Kazmi of Indiatimes believed that to become a serious actress Kapoor was embodying a maturer, more-jaded character beyond her years in Bewafaa.[37] She then starred in Priyadarshan's romantic drama Kyon Ki, which was a box-office failure;[38] however, Kapoor's performance was generally well received by critics (with the BBC describing her as "a pure natural").[39]
In 2006, Kapoor appeared in three films. She first starred in the thriller 36 China Town, followed by the comedy Chup Chup Ke; both were moderately successful.[40] She next portrayed the character of Desdemona in Omkara, the Hindi adaptation of William Shakespeare's Othello. Directed by Vishal Bhardwaj, the film is a tragedy of sexual jealousy set against the backdrop of the political system in Uttar Pradesh.[41] It premiered at the 2006 Cannes Film Festival and was screened at the Cairo International Film Festival.[41][42] Omkara was received positively by critics, and Kapoor's portrayal earned her a fourth Filmfare Award and first Screen Award.[17] In a 2010 retrospective of the "Top 80 Iconic Performances" of Hindi cinema, Filmfare wrote that she was "brilliant" and praised her ability to "effortless[ly]" convey the various emotions her character went through.[43] Kapoor considered her role in Omkara as a "new benchmark" in her career, and compared her portrayal of Dolly with her own evolving maturity as a woman.[44]
Following Omkara, Kapoor took a short break from acting, as she felt that "nothing [was] challenging enough for me to say yes".[44] In an interview with The Times of India Kapoor commented, "In my initial years in the industry, I pushed myself to do a lot of work because I was greedy. I did some films—which I now regret—purely for the money. Today, I want to do selective films."[45]
Kapoor returned to film as the female protagonist Geet Dhillon, a vivacious Sikh girl with a zest for life, in the Imtiaz Ali-directed romantic comedy Jab We Met (2007). Featured opposite Shahid Kapoor, the film relates the story of two people with contrasting personalities who meet on a train and eventually fall in love. The film was received favourably by critics and became successful at the box office with gross earnings of 302.5 million (US${{#invoke:Math|precision_format| 5,203,000/1E6 | 1}} million).[47] Kapoor won several awards for her performance, including her second Screen Award and the Filmfare Award for Best Actress.[17] Rajeev Masand of CNN-IBN noted, "Uninhibited and spontaneous, Kareena Kapoor is the soul of this picture, its biggest strength, as she brings alive her character with not just those smart lines, but with the kind of candor actors seldom invest in their work."[48] While shooting for Jab We Met, Kapoor and Shahid ended their three-year relationship.[46] When asked by Mumbai Mirror, she stated "I hold him in utmost regard, and I hope one day we could be good friends. He is a great guy."[12]
The following year, Kapoor co-starred with Akshay Kumar, Saif Ali Khan and Anil Kapoor in Vijay Krishna Acharya's action-thriller Tashan. Although a poll (conducted by Bollywood Hungama) named it the most anticipated release of the year,[49] the film was a commercial and critical failure.[50] She next provided her voice for the character of Laila, the love interest of a street dog named Romeo, in the Yash Raj Films and Walt Disney Pictures animated film Roadside Romeo. She then appeared in Rohit Shetty's comedy Golmaal Returns, the sequel to the 2006 film Golmaal: Fun Unlimited. Part of an ensemble cast which included Ajay Devgan, Arshad Warsi and Tusshar Kapoor, Kapoor played a mistrustful wife who believed her husband was unfaithful. The film had an ambivalent reception from critics, and Kapoor received mixed reviews. The Indian Express believed the screenplay was derivative, concluding: "There is nothing particularly new about a suspicious wife keeping tabs on her husband, and there is nothing particularly new in the way Kareena plays it."[51] Golmaal Returns was a financial success with global revenues of 792.5 million (US${{#invoke:Math|precision_format| 13,631,000/1E6 | 0}} million).[22]
In 2009, Kapoor was cast as Simrita Rai (opposite Akshay Kumar) in Sabbir Khan's battle-of-the-sexes comedy Kambakkht Ishq. Set in Los Angeles, it was the first Indian film to be shot at Universal Studios and featured cameo appearances by Hollywood actors.[52] The film was poorly received by critics but became an economic success, earning over 840 million (US${{#invoke:Math|precision_format| 14,448,000/1E6 | 0}} million) worldwide;[22] a review in The Times of India described Kapoor's performance as "a complete let-down" and "unconvincing".[53] She next played the leading lady in the dramatic thriller Kurbaan, alongside Saif Ali Khan and Vivek Oberoi. The film (which marked the directorial debut of Rensil D'Silva) featured Kapoor as Avantika Ahuja, a woman who is confined to house arrest after discovering that her husband is a terrorist. Describing the film as "an emotionally draining experience", Kapoor explained that it was difficult to disconnect from her character.[54] The film was critically praised, and Kapoor received her fourth Filmfare Best Actress nomination.[17] According to Subhash K Jha, "Kurbaan belongs to Kareena Kapoor. In her most consistently pitched performance to date she pulls out all stops to play a betrayed wife with splendid sensitivity. Kareena accommodates her radiant beauty into an utterly credible character and performance. At her best, Kareena is incomparable. She proves it in Kurbaan."[55]
Kapoor's final release of the year was Rajkumar Hirani's drama 3 Idiots, a film loosely based on the novel Five Point Someone by Chetan Bhagat.[56] Co-starring alongside Aamir Khan, R. Madhavan and Sharman Joshi, Kapoor played Pia (a medical student and Khan's love interest). The film received critical acclaim and emerged as the highest-grossing Bollywood film of all time, grossing 2,025.7 million (US${{#invoke:Math|precision_format| 34,842,040/1E6 | 0}} million) in India.[57] It also did well internationally, earning over 1.08 billion (US${{#invoke:Math|precision_format| 18,576,000/1E6 | 0}} million), the biggest Bollywood success ever in the overseas market.[58] The Deccan Herald opined that Kapoor "brings a dollop of sunshine and feminine grace to an otherwise masculine tale. She is so spunky and spontaneous you wish there was room for more of her."[59] During the 55th Filmfare Awards, Kapoor received another Best Actress nomination for her role.[17]
In 2010, Kapoor appeared in the romantic comedy Milenge Milenge, a production delayed since 2005.[60] The feature garnered negative reviews and poor box-office returns. Kapoor's role was small, and not well received.[60] She next took a supporting role as career-oriented Shreya Arora in We Are Family, adapted from the 1998 Hollywood film Stepmom. Reaction to the film was lukewarm, but Kapoor's performance drew positive reviews and ultimately won her the Filmfare Award for Best Supporting Actress.[61] Priyanka Roy of The Telegraph praised Kapoor for "breath[ing] life and a new-found maturity into what is largely a uni-dimensional character".[62] At the end of the year, she reunited with director Rohit Shetty for Golmaal 3, a sequel to Golmaal Returns. Like its predecessor, the film received mixed reviews though emerged as the most successful entry in the Golmaal series, earning more than 1 billion (US${{#invoke:Math|precision_format| 17,200,000/1E6 | 0}} million) domestically.[63] For her portrayal of the tomboy Daboo, Kapoor received Best Actress nominations at various award ceremonies including Filmfare.[61]
Kapoor had further success in 2011 as the love interest of Salman Khan's character in the romantic drama Bodyguard, a remake of the 2010 Malayalam film of the same name. The film was not well received by critics, though became a financial success, with a domestic total of 1,409.5 million (US${{#invoke:Math|precision_format| 24,243,400/1E6 | 0}} million)—India's highest-earning film of the year.[64] A review in Mint dismissed Kapoor's role as the "sacrificial, ornamental [and] submissive female";[65] Mid Day referred to her as "bright", arguing that she "actually manages to bring her caricature of a role alive".[66] She next appeared in Anubhav Sinha's science fiction film Ra.One with Shahrukh Khan. The film, employing special effects previously unused in Bollywood, became the most expensive Hindi film ever produced.[67] Despite garnering mixed reviews, Ra.One became one of the biggest earners of the year with a worldwide total of over 2 billion (US${{#invoke:Math|precision_format| 34,400,000/1E6 | 0}} million), and Kapoor's fourth major commercial success in three years.[68]
The following year, Kapoor played the role of a carefree young woman, Riana Braganza, in Shakun Batra's directorial debut Ek Main Aur Ekk Tu (2012) with Imran Khan. Produced by Dharma Productions, the romantic comedy is set in Las Vegas and tells the story of two strangers who get married one night after getting drunk. In an interview with The Times of India, Kapoor explained that she was drawn to her character's qualities: "Riana knows what she is doing. Even though she does not have a house or a job, she is a positive person [...] very similar to the way I am."[69] The film received positive reviews and was an economic success, grossing a total of 530 million (US${{#invoke:Math|precision_format| 9,116,000/1E6 | 1}} million) in India and abroad.[70] The Hollywood Reporter found her "endearingly natural";[71] Sukanya Verma of Rediff.com asserted that "after doing ornamental roles in films like Bodyguard and Ra.One, it is nice to see the spunky actress in her element again since Jab We Met. Though vivacious, her Riana isn't a child-woman like Geet but a free-spirited, unflappable adult armed with plucky impulses and scrumptious smile that helps Rahul come-of-age and Ek Main Aur Ekk Tu worth a helping."[72] Her next appearance was in Agent Vinod, an espionage thriller directed by Sriram Raghavan. Kapoor was enthusiastic about the project, but it met with a tepid response and she was described as miscast.[73] When asked why she had taken the role, Kapoor described it as an opportunity to attempt something she had never done before.[74]
For her next feature, Kapoor was cast as the protagonist of Madhur Bhandarkar's Heroine, a drama revolving around the Bollywood film industry. Originally the first choice for the role, Kapoor was hesitant to take on the project when Bhandarkar approached her with the film's initial concept.[75] With reservations about the criticism her character might evoke, she was replaced by Aishwarya Rai.[75] Days after production began, Rai left the film (due to her pregnancy) and Bhandarkar re-approached Kapoor with the film. When the director reinforced his faith in her, she agreed to do the film after receiving the completed script.[75] Kapoor (who described her character of Mahi Arora—a fading star—as "bipolar and schizophrenic") refrained from taking on any other projects, since she found Heroine "very aggressive and tiring".[76] Bollywood Hungama observed it as her best work to date noting that "[t]hough her character is inconsistent [...] Kareena furnishes the heroine's character with a rare vulnerability and an exceptional inner life."[77] She later received Best Actress nominations at the annual Apsara, Filmfare, Screen and Stardust Award ceremonies.[61]
Following the release of Heroine, Kapoor married actor Saif Ali Khan on 16 October 2012.[78] Described as India's "wedding and social event of the year" in Rupa Subramanya's blog at The Wall Street Journal,[79] the wedding consisted of a five-day celebration period beginning with a pre-wedding bash at Kapoor's residence followed by a registered marriage in the presence of family and close friends.[78] A reception was later held at the Taj Mahal Palace & Tower hotel in Mumbai and the Lutyens Bungalow Zone in Delhi.[78]
At the end of the year, she co-starred alongside Aamir Khan and Rani Mukerji as the "tantalisingly seductive prostitute"[80] Rosie, in Reema Kagti's crime mystery Talaash: The Answer Lies Within. Set against the backdrop of Mumbai's red-light districts, it follows the travails of its personnel and principal, Inspector Surjan Singh Shekhawat (Khan) who is assigned the duty of solving a mysterious car accident. The film generated predominantly positive reviews with Kapoor being praised in particular. The Telegraph described her performance as "naughty [and] nonchalan[t]," played with "an unseen mix of oomph and emotion that becomes the [film's] centrepiece".[81] Talaash eventually emerged as a financial success with global revenues of 1.74 billion (US${{#invoke:Math|precision_format| 29,928,000/1E6 | 0}} million).[82]
In February 2013, Kapoor commenced filming for two projects: Prakash Jha's political drama Satyagraha and Punit Malhotra's romantic comedy Gori Tere Pyaar Mein.[83]
Kapoor has participated in several stage shows and world tours since 2002. Her first concert tour (Heartthrobs: Live in Concert (2002) with Hrithik Roshan, Karisma Kapoor, Arjun Rampal and Aftab Shivdasani) was successful in the United States and Canada.[84] At the end of that year, she performed with several other Bollywood stars at Kings Park Stadium in Durban, South Africa in the show Now or Never.[85] Four years later, Kapoor took part with six other Bollywood celebrities in the Rockstars Concert world tour. The concert was staged in 19 cities across the United Kingdom, the United States and Canada, and was a success.[86] In 2008 Kapoor performed in Shahrukh Khan's Temptation Reloaded 2008, a series of concerts in a number of countries. The show (which also featured Arjun Rampal, Katrina Kaif, Ganesh Hegde, Javed Ali and Anusha Dandekar) debuted at the Ahoy Rotterdam venue in Rotterdam, the Netherlands.[87] Several months later she again joined Khan, Rampal and Kaif to perform for an audience of 15,000 at Dubai's Festival City Arena.[88]
During her years in the film industry, Kapoor has been involved with various philanthropic endeavours. In November 2003 she performed at a fundraiser for the World Youth Peace Summit.[89] In 2005, she and other Bollywood stars participated in a concert to raise money for victims of the 2004 Indian Ocean earthquake and tsunami.[90] Later that year, she visited the desert heartland of Rajasthan to boost morale of jawan (infantry) troops in a special Holi weekend episode of the NDTV show, Jai Jawan. The programme consists of entertainers who visit Indian troops in isolated regions (with an NDTV crew).[91] During her 2010 appearance on the NDTV Greenathon, Kapoor adopted the village of Chanderi in Madhya Pradesh to provide it with electricity.[92] Kapoor later participated in UNESCO and FIFA's international campaign, 1GOAL Education for All.[93] In March 2011 Kapoor was appointed ambassador for the Shakti Campaign, a project launched by the NDTV television network to combat violence against women in commemoration of the 100th anniversary of International Women's Day.[94]
In August 2007, Kapoor was appointed spokesperson for Globus in a five-year contract.[95] In association with the retail chain, she became the first Indian actress to launch her own line of clothing.[96] Her collection made its debut several months later in stores across India, and was well received.[97] Following the end of her contract with Globus, Kapoor expressed a desire to work with a design house to release her clothing line internationally,[98] but later explained that those plans were on hold.[99]
In 2009, Kapoor collaborated with nutritionist Rujuta Diwekar on Don't Lose Your Mind, Lose Your Weight, a book which focused on the principles of healthy eating habits.[100] Published by Random House Publications, the book was well received by critics, and sold 10,000 copies within its first twenty days.[100] A follow-up titled, Women and The Weight Loss Tamasha, was released in January 2011. It addressed the weight loss concerns and eating habits of women in various parts of their life, and featured Kapoor in a voice-over for the audiobook.[101] The following year, she released her autobiographical memoir: The Style Diary of a Bollywood Diva (2012). Co-authored alongside Rochelle Pinto, it became the first book to be launched under the Shobhaa De imprint of Penguin Books—a set of series that included celebrity memoirs, guides and biographies.[102] In a review published by Mint, Shefalee Vasudev criticised Kapoor's writing style as "too-breezy" but further stated that it is "a well-produced book, reproducing chirpy little post-it notes and diet charts, punctuated with Bebo's stunning pictures from her private albums to fashion magazine covers."[103]
Known for her nonchalant relationship with the media, Kapoor has gained a reputation for discussing her private life with no reservations.[50][104] As a child she regularly attended award ceremonies and events with her family, and would also accompany Karisma on-set during filming.[4] In an interview with Filmfare, she explained that growing up in a film family helped her develop a sense of professionalism and dedication towards her craft.[105] Kapoor's private life has been the subject of media attention in India, with frequent press coverage of her weight and relationship with actor Saif Ali Khan.[50] The couple—dubbed "Saifeena" by the entertainment media—has been one of the country's most-reported celebrity stories since 2007.[106]
While a segment of the press has described Kapoor as friendly and extremely close to her family,[4] others have criticized her for being arrogant and vain—an image she gained in the wake of her superficial character, Poo, in Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham... (2001).[26] She subsequently featured in films portraying similar characters, and this further established her off- and on-screen personae.[5] Before the release of Chameli (2004) (in which she played a sex worker), Kapoor stated that "there is a certain image that people identify you with [and] [i]t always follows you whichever role you play. I am trying to transgress this image and become more screen-friendly than image-friendly."[108] Chameli helped Kapoor reinvent her on-screen persona,[26] and she later explained that her honesty and openness was often perceived by the media as arrogance.[109]
Kapoor is also known for her assertive and moody nature,[109][110] and her outspoken views and independence have been singled out for making major contributions to her career; they "add to her superstar aura".[111] In an early interview, she confessed to being an "introvert, yet [...] extremely candid and blunt", reasoning: "Total faith and complete belief in myself is my attitude towards life, films and virtually everything else. I am all about doing what I feel is right. It is not easy to pin me down as I can be a bundle of contradictions."[109] Journalist Subhash K Jha explained that while this approach has sometimes been at the cost of professional opportunities, it "makes her such a favourite among the generation that believes in self regard being the highest form of creativity [...] She lives for the moment and crams all her intensity into it, not sparing a single thought for what is gone and what is waiting around the corner."[112] Meanwhile, Anu Ahuja suggested that Kapoor's demeanour is an act; she is "cold and unapproachable so that no one will act funny with her".{{#invoke:Footnotes|sfn}}
Today, Kapoor is considered as one of the most popular Bollywood celebrities in India.[113] Her look and performances have established her as a style icon for young women.[10][114] In a 2009 poll conducted by the newspaper Daily News and Analysis Kapoor was voted one of India's most popular icons;[115] with her partner Saif Ali Khan, she was listed amongst the top celebrity endorsers for brands and products worldwide.[116] She became the only Indian actress to be featured on CNNGo's list of "Who Mattered Most in India",[2] and was later selected by Verve for its list of the country's most powerful women from 2008 to 2010.[117][118][119] In June 2010 Kapoor was described as "India's Most Beautiful Woman" by People;[2] Eastern Eye and Maxim named her as "Asia's Sexiest Woman" and "India's Hottest Woman" in 2011 and 2012 respectively.[120] The following year, she ranked seventh on Forbes' list of India's biggest entertainers[121] and was later selected by India Today for its list of the country's most influential women.[122]
According to media reports, Kapoor relies on her instincts and spontaneity as an actor.[110] She is known to commit heavily to each role, and refrains from rehearsing for a project.[110][123] Commenting on this, director Rajkumar Hirani said "I usually have a habit of conducting rehearsals for my actors, but she insisted on not having them as it would affect her spontaneity. She really surprised me with a couple of emotional scenes which we canned in just one take."[110] Karan Johar described Kapoor as a "natural", explaining that "she has no craft, grammar or process attached to her acting [...] It is a great sense of cinema that can keep her going."[110] According to Rensil D'Silva (who directed her in Kurbaan), "Kareena [..] is instinctive and has emotional intelligence. She absorbs the situation and performs accordingly. Discussing the scene, in fact, harms her."[124]
While discussing her career highlights in a 2010 article, Rediff.com noted: "[E]ven though a lot of her starring roles have been forgettable, [a] look at her filmography now, however, would show a more thoughtful selection of roles [...] playing to her strengths."[104] Her portrayal of a series of superficial characters at the start of her career were criticized; film historian Gyan Prakash explained that these roles "tended to infantilise her, packaging her as daddy's little girl, all bubble and no fizz".[27] Critics noted Chameli (2004) as her coming of age, claiming that "a new actor in her was discovered".[26] Following her portrayal of a variety of character types in Chameli, Dev (2004), Omkara (2006) and Jab We Met (2007), Kapoor was noted for her versatility.[1][50] In 2010, Filmfare Magazine included two of her performances—from Omkara and Jab We Met—in its list of "80 Iconic Performances". India Today labelled her "the most versatile female lead in the industry", noting that she "play[s] her roles with trademark spunk".[125]
Manjula Sen of The Telegraph wrote that although she has "the worst success ratio among her contemporaries", it does not affect her marketability.[50] Sen further explained that Kapoor's strength lies in her being versatile; she is "effortlessly honest in her performances. It is a candour that spills over in her personal conduct."[50] Writing for CNN-IBN, Rituparna Chatterjee spoke of her transformation to date: "[A]fter 40 films and 10 years of fighting off competition from some of the most versatile actors of her generation, Kareena has matured into a bankable actor reinventing herself with surprising ease."[126] In 2004, Kapoor placed third on Rediff's list of "Top Bollywood Female Stars".[127] She was later ranked seventh and fifth in 2005 and 2006, respectively, and returned to third place in 2007.[128][129][130] In January 2011, Kapoor placed fourth on Rediff's list of "Top 10 Actresses of 2000–2010".[131]

Place of death |
I try to breathe
Memories overtaking me
I try to face them but
The thought is too much to conceive
I only know that I can change
Everything else just stays the same
So now I step out of the darkness
that my life became 'cause
I just needed someone to talk to
You were just to busy with yourself
You were never there for me
To express how I felt
I just stuffed it down
Now I'm older and I feel like
I could let some of this anger fade
But it seems the surface I am scratching
Is the bed that I have made
So where were you?
When all this I was going through
You never took the time
To ask me just what you could do
I only know that I can change
Everything else just stays the same
So now I step out of the darkness
that my life became 'cause
I just needed someone to talk to
You were just to busy with yourself
You were never there for me
To express how I felt
I just stuffed it down
Now I'm older and I feel like
I could let some of this anger fade
But it seems the surface I am scratching
Is the bed that I have made
I never meant to fade...
Away
I NEVER MEANT TO FADE
I just needed someone to talk to
You were just to busy with yourself
You were never there for me
To express how I felt
I just stuffed it down
Now I'm older and I feel like
I could let some of this anger fade
But it seems the surface I am scratching
Is the bed that I have made
All the photographs were peeling
and colors turned to gray
He stayed... in his room with memories for days
He faced... an undertow of futures laid to waste
Embraced... by the loss of what he could not replace
There is no reason that she passed
And there is no god with a plan
It's sad... and his loneliness is proof
It's sad... he could only love you
It's sad
The door swings to a passing fable
A fate we may delay
We say... holding on...delivered in our own brace
He let em as he laid in bed
hoping that dreams would bring her back
It's sad... and his loneliness is proof
It's sad... he could only love you
It's sad
Holding his last breath
Believing... he'll make his way
But she's not forgotten
He's haunted...he's searching for escape
If just one wish could bring her back
It's sad... and his lonliness is proof
It's sad... he will always love you
There's nothing more depressing
Than having everything and still feeling sad
Man, it's been a long day
Stuck thinking 'bout it driving on the freeway
Wondering if I really tried everything I could
Not knowing if I should try a little harder
Oh, but I'm scared to death
That there may not be another one like this
And I confess that I'm only holding on by a thin thin
thread
I'm kicking the curb cause you never heard
The words that you needed so bad
And I'm kicking the dirt cause I never gave you
The things that you needed to have
I'm so sad, sad
Man, it's been a long night
Just sitting here, trying not to look back
Still looking at the road we never drove on
And wondering if the one I chose was the right one
Oh, but I'm scared to death
That there may not be another one like this
And I confess that I'm only holding on by a thin thin
thread
I'm kicking the curb cause you never heard
The words that you needed so bad
And I'm kicking the dirt cause I never gave you
The things that you needed to have
I'm so sad, saaad
I'm so sad, so sad
Oh, but I'm scared to death
That there may not be another one like this
And I confess that I'm only holding on by a thin thin
thread
I'm kicking the curb cause you never heard
The words that you needed so bad
And I'm kicking the dirt cause I never gave you
The things that you needed to have
And I'm kicking the curb cause you never heard
The words that you needed so bad
And who are they to know, as they are to achieve it
And who are they to change, when they don't even know
An older sign of life upon their heads
And all because they came around and touched you
like you thought you had
Blew it out into the sky and someone else could even
As always in their eyes they would be true
And fly right up to you and say that they would always
trust in you
Now every night it comes
An older sign of life upon their heads
So when they came around and talked about the way
they treat their children
When they talked about their death and said that
they would sometimes hold out
When they crawled out between the boards alive and
tried to stretch for air to survive
How were they supposed to be alive at all
So every night it comes
And who are they to know, as they are to achieve it
And who are they to change, when they don't even know
An older sign of life upon their heads
How many souls have cried for years
Thank God the angels make them see
And take their souls to liberty
Arise above the way that humans treat their children
so, so low
Pushing all the love away
Showing them is this way to live
How are they supposed to be alive
(these are all the children)
Without love how are they supposed to be
(these are all the visions)
without love (these are all the children)
It's here in the horrible world
In forces of the time
In the garden of hate
And the forces that lie
It cuts into the vine
SOmeone gets to bring a change
You can help it in your mind
He never should have been in your home
You never should have left them alone
You should have recognized the ice in his eyes
And nothing would be bad enough
And no one would be glad enough
If he was thrown to the jackals and flies
Now there can be no compromise
But the Earth cannot recoil
If only the oceans would boil
If only the sky could cry black rain
If only it would never happen again
I want you to feel that baby's pain
Hate guides him, hate inside him
Hate multiplies and divides him
Suffer killing, suffocate
Suffer children, suffer hate
To never feel the daylight again
Or see the stars at night again
All the little things we take for granted
These deeds are the seeds that have been planted
Sudden adult death syndrome
He never should have been in your home
Hate guides him, hate inside him
Hate multiplies and divides him
Suffer killing, suffocate
Hardly waiting 'til the bed was warm
You closed your eyes and said,
"I'm feeling torn"
How could I be so unendingly forced into this course?
Sad, I feel sad for you, so sad
You'll be left alone and broken,
Bleeding from the heart when he doesn't come home
Softly sighs my nightingale
Another broken promise tips the scale
And it goes pale
He sings, shifting from side to side, can't
Make up his God given mind
No, why don't you just go?
She's waiting
Whoa honey I am telling you
Painting over portraits again, I pretend
This isn't how I knew it would end.
Cause there are no more pages in my book
And there is too much ink in my pen
So now I'm wishing that the cycle would end, so then
I'd learn to be somebody's man
Cause there is too much history for the history books
And I'd like to start them again
I hate me, so unoriginal
No other feeling could feel so traditional
Cause every year I end up here
I end up here
So now you hate me?
Oh, how original
Well I'm used to it
Lone, individual
Another year and I'm still here
And I'm still here
Looking in the mirror, I'm sure I'm sure
And I didn't do those things from before
Cause there is no more time left on the clock
And you are walking out the front door
So now I'm learning to be wrong even more, the whore
The emptiness I try to ignore
Cause there are no more bullets in my gun
And I am trying to prepare for a war
I hate me, so unoriginal
No other feeling could feel so traditional
Cause every year I end up here
I end up here
So now you hate me?
Oh, how original
Well I'm used to it
Lone, individual
Another year and I'm still here
And I'm still here
And you say,
"I'll take it out on myself, I'll take it out on my
friends."
And you say,
"I've got this knife to my throat, and there's this
blood on my hands."
(And if you pick me up...)
Is it selfish?
Well if so fine,
I've always been selfish
And that's just one of the many problems I will never
be able to fix
I believe I am making everyone's lives around me worse
Increasingly worse
I am a disease to my friends and family
Please leave me alone
We're still young
It's over
I'm so dumb (...pick me up)
I love her
I'm sorry (if you...)
I hate me
It was fine (...pick me up)
Til lately
I hate me, so unoriginal
No other feeling could feel so traditional
Cause every year I end up here
I end up here
So now you hate me?
Oh, how original
Sorry about your life
Sorry about your face
I didn't break your heart
Or tamper with your brakes
You were headed for a spin
So you tried to drag me in
Maybe you had a difficult life
Maybe you're just the faithless kind
Well I got my revenge
My name in neon lights
You got what you deserved
Your sad and miserable life
Sad sad sad sad sad sad
And worse than that you think you're so bad
I could beat ya
I could teach ya
I'm not coming down to meet ya
You're so sad
You're so sad
Sorry about your lies
So who are you calling thief
I didn't cry your tears
And I did not lose your sleep
You were headed for a spin
So you tried to drag me in
Maybe you had a difficult life
Maybe you're just the faithless kind
Well I got my revenge
My name in neon lights
You got what you deserved
Your sad and miserable life, that's right
Sad sad sad sad sad sad
And worse than that you think you're so bad
I could beat ya
I could teach ya
But I'm not coming down to meet ya
You're so sad
You're so sad
Mirror mirror on the wall
Who's the biggest hipocrite of all
I say you, you say me
Either way we disagree
I won't forget your treachery
So easily
No way
No way
I'm so sorry about your face
I'm so sorry about your life
Your bitterness your spite
So sad
Hateful love sweet enemy
All over me
We try to sleep
But we're awake and we weap
We tried to set ourselves free
But when we came out
there was nothing to see
I?ll sit here and wait for you
But when you appear
it will be to late
We try to sleep
But we're awake and we weap
We try to set ourselves free
But we are awake
cause it?s so hard to be
We live by the sea
in a small shack
There we all meet
and put on our masks
Today is ok
so calm and pretty
Darkness don?t come
my worst enemy
We try to set ourselves free
But we are awake
cause there is nowhere to be
We try to set ourselves free
But we are awake
I want you to know
to let me go
The chains in my veins keep on
stealing the life from the inside
I'm taking this life
to be all mine
I’m breaking these chains here
to see the love inside
Still I'm feeling sad
I know it will ease
Still I'm feeling sad
I know it will ease
This breathtaking ride
has been so high
making me blind here to see
the one inside
Still I'm feeling sad
I know it will ease
Still I'm feeling sad
I know it will ease
It's waiting so wild
to fill all this time
Maybe I’m trying to seek
another tie
Still I'm feeling sad
I know it will ease
Still I'm feeling sad
I am sick of you You make me feel so sad Everyday I walk near you after that I'm feeling bad Hate every part of you Every little inch of you Pillow says good night But there is no escape in the dream Because you are watching me From the night From the day I'm so sad
i'm believing, i know it's true
i'm believing for you
i'm conceding this much is true
i'm conceding for you
i'm believing this time it's true
i'm believing for you
i'm conceding for you
i'm believing for you
When I’m alone in my car I keep falling apart,
My troubles start to kick in; my wounds are bleeding again,
Things no one would know, but in my car they explode,
Consumed by my memory, sometimes my worst enemy.
I’m wounded, withdrawn,
Worried, the unknown,
Discouraged, used, (can you take the pain away?)
Depression, alone. (can you take my pain away?)
I’m sad,
I’m feeling like I never have,
Can you help me?
I’m sad,
I’m feeling so bad,
Can you help me?
I feel at home in this bar; my second home is this bar,
The casual drinking is gone, and now I just pour it on.
Empty and numb,
Erosion, bitterness,
Mistreated and hurt, (can you take the pain away?)
I’m weary with the tears. (can you take my pain away?)
I’m sad,
I’m feeling like I never have,
Can you help me?
I’m sad,
I’m failing so bad,
Can you help me?
Have you ever had one of those dreams that seems to go on and on, and on and on?
Well, last night I dreamed that Jesus walked right into this bar, and looked in my eyes and said…
Rejected, betrayed,
Hated and afraid,
I suffered, crucified,
Degraded, and I died.
I’m sad,
I’m feeling like I never have,
Can you help me?
I’m sad,
I’m feeling so bad,
Can you help me?
I’m sad,
I’m feeling like I never have,
Can you help me?
I’m sad,
I’m feeling so bad,
Can you help me?
Love is full of accidents
the break is never clean.
We may not capture what we want,
just the things we need.
Untie the knots inside this mind
and set this spirit free.
There's another trail of tears;
they all lead back to me.
So sad, so sad
The things we never had
So sad, so sad, so sad.
So hide your love and guard it well,
Curse that sweet disease.
Protect every fading truth.
Brave hearts may touch their dreams.
I will always be this way.
I cannot deceive.
When I turn to face myself
You're not not here with me.
So sad, so sad
The things we never had
So sad, so sad, so sad.
Wretched are the feint of heart
when all their truths unfold.
The thieves of love they cought us out
while we were lying low.
So sad, so sad
The things we never had
It's so sad that I feel today I now live so alone all day I can't believe that chance went today 'til she left me alone since I am all alone

This is...
wrong to give you something
breaking who I am

so you are said that
so you can,t just give me more
You,d be absurd if you prefer hot to roll
you,re gotta go far away
you,d loose so much if you,re not anymore
you,re gotta go far away
you,d be stupid if you pretend just fall
you,ve gotta far away
you,d blues will drawn your dream or
would, you give me more
So i gotta feel what you don,t feel anymore
that is so much, then take is slow
I can drawm every new thought, I can
draw, take it slow
there,s...
worng to give you something
as a school with no faith
to straight to find a circle way
a school of shame
there,s something that could be
there,s something tomorrow,ll bring me
so someway you can save me
a school with no lights
a school with death sound
your soul can,t fade so young
now i dont care
now i feel better
only when I climb
that,s when I rise
so you can,t just give me more
so then give me more
there is maybe
there is something
together get it
sometimes you can break me
a school with no faith
a school with...
together with it
