Kareena: Can’t imagine life without acting

Kareena Kapoor Khan says she has been acting for such a long time now that she cannot imagine herself in any other profession.

Asked what she would be if not an actor, Kareena said: "After 18 years of working in this profession, I don’t know if I can even think of myself doing something else. I always wanted to be an actor, so I can’t imagine life without acting."


She was speaking at the Lokmat Maharashtrian of The Year awards. The actor also received an award at the event.

"Every award is important but to be awarded Maharashtrian of The Year is extremely special. I am very proud of my state, my city. I feel very humble to receive this honour," the Bajrangi Bhaijaan star said.

At the event, actor Akshay Kumar was also honoured, and Kareena said the Airlift star is most deserving of the award.

“There is no one more deserving than him because his film choices are so brave. He has made films on varied topics and tried to do something different,” she said.

TroyBoi returns to his Indian roots with Rootz EP using Lata Mangeshkar’s voice to redefine British diaspora music

Highlights:

  • TroyBoi’s five-track EP Rootz is a personal return to the sounds of his childhood, released via Ultra Records in September 2025.
  • The single Kabhi uses an officially cleared sample of Lata Mangeshkar’s vocal from Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham.
  • Collaborations with Amrit Maan, Jazzy B and BombayMami plug Punjabi, Bhangra and south-Asian textures directly into modern trap and bass production.
  • This EP is part of a wider wave: British artists born into diasporas are using heritage not as garnish but as foundation.

Some albums hit you in ways you don’t see coming. Rootz is one of them. Not just another trap EP. TroyBoi, the London-born producer known for global bass and trap, has made something that’s also deeply personal. He didn’t just want to make music that bangs in clubs; instead, he wanted to reach back to the India of his childhood. And he did it with Rootz.

The track everyone’s talking about is Kabhi. Because it’s not just sampling Bollywood. Lata Mangeshkar’s voice was officially cleared for use on a non-Bollywood release, a milestone reported by multiple outlets. It’s history. It’s memory. And it’s a bridge.
