Goafest 2025 Had Its Heroine—Enter Kareena Kapoor Khan Day 1

“Which movie of Raj Kapoor would you like to choose for a remake?” When Atika Farooqui, celebrity host, performer, and producer, asked this, Kareena didn’t hesitate—she went straight for the truth.

“None of his movies should ever get a remake… because they’re legendary. They should only be his and his!”

That was Kareena Kapoor Khan shutting down the idea of a Raj Kapoor remake with just one perfect, no-notes mic drop. And honestly? She didn’t just say it. She owned it.

The moment she walked into the venue, the energy shifted. Dressed in effortless glam and radiating that Kareena confidence, she wasn’t just a speaker at Goafest—she was the moment. The flashbulbs went off, the audience leaned in, and every sentence she dropped had a little extra sparkle (and maybe a few gasps too).

Her presence wasn’t just star power—it was stardust. Kareena brought the fire, the charm, and a little bit of that signature sass that only she can serve.

She dropped truth bombs on love and relationships, saying,
“There is nothing like a code to a perfect marriage. Being busy is never a code to being happy. Staying away doesn’t keep the spark alive—it’s about two people connecting in a way that makes it all up for it.”
Honestly, give this woman a podcast already.

But it wasn’t just glitz and glamour. Kareena got real. She opened up about something most celebs wouldn’t dare to admit: fear.
“I’m very scared of doing a movie in another language. I don’t know if the dubbing will be good enough or not.”
And just like that, Kareena reminded everyone that even Bollywood’s most celebrated stars have insecurities—and the courage to say them out loud.

She also took a reflective turn, sharing hard-won wisdom from her own journey:
“Learn from your mistakes. When you are young, you have more energy, more zest. And I look at myself and—oh God! So I’m blaming it on youth. With time you change and become more mature. It’s a journey on its own. Time is the biggest catalyst.”
“I have learnt through time.”

Her session wasn’t a lecture. It was a vibe. She made the audience laugh, pause, reflect, and maybe even tear up a little. She was real, raw, and radiant.

Kareena at Goafest wasn’t just a celebrity appearance—it was a cultural reset. A moment where glitz met guts. Where Bollywood royalty showed us that behind the glam, there’s depth. And behind the diva, there’s a woman who just gets it.So no, Raj Kapoor’s movies shouldn’t be remade. And neither should Kareena’s legacy. Because what she gave us at Goafest?
Legendary. Just hers. And hers alone.
