In an interview earlier, Bollywood actress Karishma Kapoor says people have a misconception that the Kapoor family is too traditional to allow their daughters-in-law to work in films. "I think it is a myth that Kapoor bahus (daughters-in-law) do not work. Whether it is my mother (Babita, wife of Randhir Kapoor) or Neetu (Kapoor -- Rishi Kapoor's wife) aunty, they made a choice of not working after marriage and having children.
"On the other hand, Jennifer (Kendal -- wife of Shashi Kapoor) aunty and Geeta (Bali -- first wife of Shammi Kapoor) aunty worked throughout, even after marriage. So we all practised our choice," said Karishma. Her sister, and the granddaughter of iconic filmmaker Raj Kapoor, Kareena said: "Also, I think our parents were very cosmopolitan. They did not stop us from doing what we wanted to. My father was very supportive. Though he did not recommend us to any producer, he always encouraged us to fly."
