19 Oct – Kareena Kapoor has recently dismissed the old yet still ongoing rumour that she and Priyanka Chopra are beefing with each other. It was rumoured back in the early 2000s, just as the two made their debut almost simultaneously, that the Kapoor heiress and the beauty queen had a rift while shooting the movie, "Aitraaz", so much so that they almost started a fight.
They also seemed to throw shade at each other via "Koffee with Karan", in which Kareena said that she'd like to ask Priyanka where she gets her accent from, and Priyanka responding in another episode that it was "from the same place" where Kareena's boyfriend (now husband Saif Ali Khan) got his.
When asked about it in a recent interview, nearly two decades after the rumour first started, Kareena responded, "No, no, no, all rubbish. I was like, 'What is going on?' But I think maybe we all had that energy - you know, some sort of thing, where we were all wanting to prove ourselves."
"The '90s were full of [catfights], the '90s started, and in 2000, everyone was having a catfight. [You say anything] and [a catfight would start]. Today, I mean, you don't even hear those things, you know. Who knows? It must be happening as a thought, but things are a little different and more chilled out [now]," she said.
