While talking to Indian Express the âJab We Met' actress said that she is still excited about acting. She said, "If I lose that, then I feel I should hang up my boots. Because the excitement of wanting to be on set, the excitement of wanting to face the camera still, it's still there at 43. But I know that the day that's not there, then I know that I'm not going to work because I'm that kind of person." She further talked about how passionate she is for everything, including her meals, outings with friends, and travel. "That's the person I am. So if a day comes that I realise that I'm somehow losing that, then it's time for retirement", she added. When asked about her retirement plans, she said: "Hopefully at 83 or 93, I don't know! I want to keep working, I want to keep doing that."

In the same interview, she revealed how Karisma had to break through stereotypes and doubts within the industry. "She kind of sowed the seeds, and I reaped a lot from it," Kareena explained. "A lot of exposure happened being with her on sets. I have to give her so much credit."
Karisma faced comments like "light-eyed actresses won't become stars," but her determination and hard work proved those skeptics wrong. She became the darling of the 90s, and her fans' love extended to Kareena as well. While Karisma dominated with blockbusters, Kareena chose an alternative path with films like "Refugee," showing their distinct yet equally captivating styles.
On the work front, the actress has quite an interesting lineup including Hansal Mehta's The Buckingham Murders
