Kareena Kapoor Khan turned heads at the Lakme Fashion Week Summer/Resort 2019 as she took over the ramp as the glamorous showstopper.

Ahead of her stint, the actress took had a brief interview with IANS where she spoke about her strong belief in reinvention in her personal and professional life which has driven her survival as a star in showbiz.

She also shared that she has the self-confidence to make even everyday fashion look like couture. She also shared that she finds her elder sister Karisma "more of a fashion icon" between the two, without a second thought.

"Most of the time you will see me in a jeans and a T-shirt. It's besides the point that I can make jeans and a T-shirt also look like couture. I know I have that... I can... It's just that I don't like dressing up."

From her maiden film "Refugee", which saw in her in bare minimum make-up, to Karan Johar's "Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham..." -- in which he presented her as the uber stylish Pooja aka Poo -- Kareena has been fearless about trying different looks.

"It's (the fearlessness is) a part of being successful... Actually I was trying to do different kind of stuff at a very early stage. In fact, I'd say I was very experimental when I was 19.

"'Refugee' was a very experimental launch. It was not the typical glamorous girl. But again, I think there would have been no fun if there was no fear or excitement.

"It is good to be a fearless actor, but it is good to have a little bit fear so that your performance level is always high," added the actress.

Reinvention is something she takes seriously.

"If I can't reinvent as a person, I cannot be a better actor. The reason I feel that I have been in this business through decades and still been here is only because of reinvention.

"To constantly reinvent as a human being is so important," averred the actress, for whom marriage and motherhood have been life-changing.

"They have made me and my thoughts so much better than what they were, say 10 years ago.

"Just sometimes not doing so much work, cutting out on travelling, taking a break and not really being a part of the Bollywood herd... A lot of things in my life that I have chosen to do are a part of me reinventing," she said.

The actress, who came up with "Veere Di Wedding", a coming-of-age story on female bonding last year, said she is glad that subjects and scripts are being reinvented.

"'Veere...' was a revelation. We have always spoken about male friendships, but we had never seen what female bonding is like. So I think in a way it took it forward in terms of content," Kareena said.

Steering the conversation to her upcoming film "Good News", which is on surrogacy, she said: "It's a topic which not many people will touch upon, but of course it's in a commercial space. It's a lot more funny.

"But we have to keep those dynamics in mind. The idea is to keep entertaining your audience, but with more content-based films."

Bebo is also a part of Karan Johar's period drama "Takht" and giving insights about it she revealed, "The entire ambiance and setting will be so different. Besides that, I haven't worked with Karan in many years... He has grown as a director from strength to strength and I am a very different actor today. So it will be very interesting."
