When Kareena Kapoor talked about ‘brotherly’ bond with Abhishek Bachchan
Abhishek Bachchan and Kareena Kapoor have a special bond: they made their acting debuts together with Refugee.
Kareena Kapoor and Abhishek Bachchan made their Bollywood debuts together in J.P. Dutta’s romance Refugee, released in 2000.
But did you know that Kareena once said that she thought of Abhishek like a brother?
A brotherly bond
On an episode of Rendezvous with Simi Garewal that aired in 2002, Kareena Kapoor was in conversation with the host about Abhishek and their romantic scenes in Refugee.
While talking to Abhishek Bachchan during the shoot of the movie, she said “AB this is our first romantic scene together, and how can I fall in love with you? You’re like my brother.”
Abhishek was engaged to Kareena’s elder sister Karisma. The engagement later broke off and he married Aishwarya Rai in 2007 and Karisma married Sunjay Kapur in 2003. They split in 2016.
Kareena ruined Abhishek?
During the episode, a clip of Abhishek Bachchan talking to the audience played where he spilled the details of this incident on set, adding “I will never forgive you for ruining me in that scene.”
The scene Abhishek was referring to in the movie took place at the Dargah, during which Kareena’s character asks Abhishek’s character to stay back when he informs her that he has to leave, marking one of the first romantic scenes in the movie.
The clip of AB aired on the show that also included a sweet message for Kareena, where he mentions “Apart from being one of my best friends, you’re also my first co-star and my first “reel” love, so I do share a very special bond with you,” considering the two Bollywood superstars made their debut in the industry together with Refugee.
“I couldn’t have asked for anything but to work in my first film with him,” added Kareena, in conversation with Simi Garewal.
Refugee recently marked 24 years since its release on June 30th, and Kareena Kapoor posted a reel of clips from the movie on her Instagram to mark the date.
Her caption says “24 years of discovering myself and my characters. The best is yet to come… Love you all…” celebrating her time in the industry since she made her debut with this movie.

3 Reasons Why Virat Kohli Is An Ideal Husband
In the tapestry of life, where moments are woven with threads of joy, sorrow, triumphs, and trials, there comes a rare instance when one thread shines brighter than the others, not because of its color or texture, but for the story it tells. This is the story of Virat Kohli, not the cricket maestro whose name echoes in stadiums worldwide, but Virat the man, the husband, whose life off the pitch resonates with a different kind of applause. In a world where the spotlight often blurs the lines between persona and person, Kohli stands as a beacon of normalcy, a reminder that beneath the layers of fame and fortune lies a human heart, beating in rhythm with the ordinary. His journey with Anushka Sharma, captured in fleeting moments like a simple stroll in London, where he holds shopping bags with the same ease he holds a cricket bat, speaks volumes. It’s not just about the act but the sentiment behind it – a silent declaration of partnership, equality, and love. Here, in these unscripted moments, we find Virat Kohli, not the icon, but the ideal husband, a role he plays with as much passion as he does his sport, reminding us all of the beauty in simplicity, the strength in support, and the power of love in its most human form. Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma: Respect and Equality Virat Kohli’s relationship with Anushka Sharma is often cited as a model of respect and equality. In a world where gender roles can still dictate behavior, Kohli has consistently demonstrated that he views his partnership with Anushka as one of equals. Whether it’s publicly supporting her career moves or sharing household responsibilities, his actions speak volumes about his belief in partnership. The recent video of him carrying shopping bags while Anushka crosses the road is just one of many instances where he’s shown that he values her comfort and convenience as much as his own. This mutual respect is a cornerstone of any ideal relationship, making Kohli a role model for many. Support and Encouragement Kohli’s support for Anushka’s career and personal growth is another testament to his ideal husband status. From attending her movie premieres to publicly praising her work, he’s always been her biggest cheerleader. This support extends beyond professional life; Kohli has been vocal about how Anushka’s influence has helped him grow personally and professionally. His acknowledgment of her role in his life, especially in managing his mental health and career, highlights a deep, supportive partnership where both individuals uplift each other. This level of support is rare and deeply admired. Privacy and Protection In an era where every aspect of a celebrity’s life is under scrutiny, Kohli’s efforts to keep his family life private, especially concerning their children, Vamika and Akaay, show a protective side that resonates with the ideal husband archetype. He and Anushka have made conscious decisions to shield their children from the media glare, reflecting a commitment to their family’s well-being over public perception. This protective stance, coupled with his public displays of affection and respect towards Anushka, paints a picture of a man deeply committed to his family’s happiness and security. Virat Kohli’s portrayal as the ideal husband isn’t just about grand gestures; it’s about the consistent, everyday choices he makes that prioritize his relationship with Anushka. His actions reflect a modern understanding of marriage where respect, support, and privacy are paramount. While no relationship is perfect, Kohli’s approach to his marriage sets a benchmark for what many aspire to in their own partnerships. His journey with Anushka, filled with mutual growth, respect, and love, continues to inspire fans and followers worldwide, making him not just a cricketing legend but a figure of admiration in the realm of personal relationships.
