Kareena Kapoor Khan is one of the most loved and most popular actresses of present times and it won’t be wrong to say that she appears to be aging in a reverse manner. Known for speaking her mind without hesitation, Bebo has often made headlines with her bold statements—sometimes even sparking controversies. Today, we take a trip down memory lane to revisit a time when Kareena confessed that she had wanted to date Rahul Gandhi. Yes, you read that right! She even wished for him to become the Prime Minister of India, a revelation that left everyone astounded.
Back in 2002, when Kareena was still new to the industry, she appeared on the show Rendezvous With Simi Garewal and let her guard down completely. During the interview, she was asked which celebrity she would like to date. Kareena, being her straightforward self, replied, “Shall I say this? I don’t know if I should… because I don’t mind getting to know him. It’s controversial… Rahul Gandhi.”
Kareena went on to explain how she was intrigued by his pictures, saying, “I would like to know him. I have been seeing his pictures… and as I was flipping through, I was wondering what it would be like to have a conversation with him. I come from a family with a film lineage, and he comes from a family of politicians. So, maybe it would make for an interesting conversation.”

Years later, when asked about her dating comment, the Crew actress clarified, “It’s too old, and I said it because our surnames are popular.”
Really?
