Kareena Kapoor Khan ready to explore web-shows, but conditions apply

Kareena Kapoor Khan, one of the most successful actresses of Bollywood in the last two decades, says she has no qualms about starring in a digital series provided its content should be as wonderful as the Netflix Original Sacred Games (2018), which had her husband Saif Ali Khan as the protagonist.

“Well, if the content is as wonderful as Sacred Games, I’m quite sure I would (do it). It’s put India on a global map. The kind of content and the characters Saif and Nawazuddin (Siddiqui) have played… It’s like a craze,” said the actress.


The actress goes on to add that no film has garnered the kind of appreciation and adulation that Sacred Games has done for her husband Saif. “I do not think Saif has got so many compliments for a film the way he has got for the series. In India, to have such bold content has not been done before,” she added.

Kareena, who was most recently seen in Veere Di Wedding (2018), is presently in news for dubbing for the hypnotic python Kaa in the Hindi version of Disney’s Mowgli: Legend of the Jungle. She will next be seen in Karan Johar’s production venture Good News, co-starring Akshay Kumar, Diljit Dosanjh and Kiara Advani.
