Actor Sara Ali Khan says she is in awe of Kareena Kapoor's professionalism and going forward wants to imbibe the same.
Daughter of Saif Ali Khan and Amrita Singh, Sara says the way Kareena, who married Saif in 2012, carries herself is amazing.
"I think Kareena is extremely professional. The way she does her work, it's amazing. So I would want to imbibe her professionalism," Sara said.
The actor was speaking at the trailer launch of her debut film Kedarnath. The romantic-drama is directed by Abhishek Kapoor and features Sushant Singh Rajput as male lead.
Sara said her father always wanted her to first finish her studies before entering the film industry.
"My father used to say I should finish my studies first before entering films. He was fully supportive if I wanted to do films but wanted me to study first. When I got a chance to be a part of Kedarnath, I liked the script so much I knew I had to do it," she said.
The actor already has her second film, Rohit Shetty's Simmba, lined up for release.
When asked if she feels any pressure since she represents a legacy, Sara said, "Pressure is there but a lot of people also say 'it's easier for you, you are getting work without anyone even seeing your work.' There are two sides to everything.
"We can say we have pressure but there are benefits too which I can't escape from. I know that the fact that I can ask for work from Abhishek or Rohit is in itself a big deal. I feel very lucky that I have two films coming up."
This year, Janhvi Kapoor also made her debut with Dhadak and Sara says just like her good friend, she would want people to appreciate her work as well.
"All of us are here to do our work. I saw Dhadak and I thought she was fantastic. Everybody loves her work and I hope people like my work too. The rest is in your hands," she added.
Perry's onstage quip about "Englishmen" felt like a deliberate signal.
Those yacht photos are, frankly, undeniable.
It started with a Montreal dinner most people missed.
Both are out of long-term relationships.
Well, she’s as good as confirmed it, hasn’t she? Katy Perry just tossed a verbal grenade into her London concert, and the pieces all point to Justin Trudeau. That line about Englishmen? You do not say that by accident. It lands just days after those, let's face it, pretty steamy pictures of them surfaced on her boat. This Katy Perry and Justin Trudeau thing is suddenly feeling very real, shifting from rumours to a full-blown celebrity romance.

So what did she actually say?
Mid-show at the O2, looking out at the crowd, she hits them with this: "London, England, you’re like this on a Monday night?... No wonder I fall for Englishmen all the time."
Pause.
Then came the kicker: "...but not anymore." The place erupts. It was too specific, too perfectly timed. And then, almost as if scripted, some fan proposes to her. Her comeback was: "I wish you’d asked me 48 hours ago." What is that, if not a nod to a new, serious someone?
Let’s talk about the yacht. The Daily Mail got those shots and, while grainy, the story they tell is crystal clear. The photos were taken off the coast of Santa Barbara, on her 78-foot Caravelle. He is pulling her in, kissing her cheek. His hand was on her backside in another frame. This follows that low-key Montreal dinner in July that almost flew under the radar.

Where does this leave everyone?
Right, let us look at the context. Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom only finalised their split recently, with the co-parenting news coming out in July. Justin Trudeau’s marriage to Sophie Grégoire also ended last year. Both are prominent figures with busy lives who have only just become single. Sources are already saying he has been "persistent," flying to see her on tour breaks. It has the feel of something that is accelerating fast. And Perry, with that London comment, seems ready to let it.
