Kareena
Kapoor was born (on September 21, 1980) to Sindhi-speaking Babita (nee
Shivdasani) and Punjabi-speaking Randhir Kapoor in Bombay, India. She has an
elder sister, Karisma. Her dad, Randhir is very protective towards his
daughters and wanted both of them to keep away from acting, get married, and
settle down, as per the Kapoor family tradition. This led to irreconcilable differences
between her parents, ultimately leading to a divorce, with both sisters leaving
their dad to live with their mom. In 2000, her film debut with ‘Refugee’ along
with the debut of Amitabh Bachchan’s son, Abhishek. She went on to appear in 31
other Hindi movies, and has thus far won four awards for her performances in ‘Refugee’,
‘Chameli’, ‘Dev’, and ‘Omkara’.
