'Karan Johar And I Would Love A Poo Spin-Off', Kareena Kapoor Khan On Her Iconic K3G Role

"Woh kaun hai jisne dobara mud ke mujhe nahi dekha? Who is he?"- When Kareena Kapoor mouthed these lines in the 2002 film Kabhi Khushi Kabhi Gham, she had little clue that it'll change her life.

'Poo' remains a sensation even today and thanks to Kareena's style and grace that she instilled in her character.

Kareena Kapoor Khan, who essayed the character on screen, says the role initially left her bewildered. As the movie clocks, 20 years this December, Kareena revisited the unapologetically bold 'Poo in an interview with PTI.'

She said, "There has never been a character on Indian screens where a mainstream actor will be so open and bold. It was way ahead of its time. When we were shooting it 20 years ago, Karan used to tell me that 'This is going to be an iconic character' and I would be like, 'Why am I doing this?"

Talking about the role, she said,

"Even after 20 years, every girl remembers Poo or has some connect. It's just the way she carried herself. She was not a typical heroine. It's a difficult role to play... to have that kind of timing and dialogue rather than putting glycerine and crying. I think even I can't do that timing again if I tried getting back to her."

In 2018, while there were some reports that Kareena would be returning to play a character inspired by 'Poo' for a streaming giant, nothing was officially announced.

Kareena said Johar would love the idea of making a spin-off on 'Poo,' but she would like to remember her character for what it was in the movie.

"Karan and I would love to have a spin-off; he would love the idea. But we should remember it for what it was. When people talk about 'Kabhi Khushi...' they talk about Poo, and I would like it to remain that way and live with that," the 41-year-old actor said.

'Poo' turned out to be one of the most memorable characters from the 2001 film that starred already established actors like Amitabh Bachchan, Jaya Bachchan, Shah Rukh Khan, Kajol, and Hrithik Roshan.
