Can’t relate to Kabir: Arjun

After portraying a goal-oriented IIM student in 2 states, actor Arjun Kapoor will be seen essaying a house husband in the upcoming film Ki and Ka. He says cannot relate to his unambitious character from the R. Balki directorial.

“My character Kabir is not ambitious, unlike me. So I cannot say I can relate to him,” Arjun told.

The 30-year-old actor will be seen playing an IIT graduate and a house husband to actress Kareena Kapoor Khan's character Kia, an ambitious and a career-oriented woman in the upcoming romantic comedy which is slated to hit the screens on April 1. “He (my character) has grown up wanting to be like his mother and not like his father. He's an educated boy from IIT. But he is very clear about why the way he is,” he added about his character.

The much awaited trailer of Kapoor and Sons is out and it has all the ingredients needed to make a blockbuster. The story has everything Bollywood thrives on - a family (albeit rather dysfunctional), brotherhood and a love triangle. Until the credits roll out in this Shakun Batra movie, Rishi Kapoor, as the Kapoor grandfather, is unrecognizable.

While Rajat Kapoor and Ratna Pathak play the Kapoor parents, Siddharth Malhotra and Fawad Khan portray the last generation of the family. Enter Alia Bhatt, the love interest of the brothers and the plot thickens.

Career as a holiday for Kate

Actress Kate Winslet says she doesn't see her busy career as a job and, instead, prefers to look at it as a “holiday.”

“I really do love acting, and as I get older I find myself loving it more and more. I'm so struck by how long I've been doing this. I suddenly feel like one of these people who's been around a long time - and I have!” she said to a magazine.

“The great thing about acting is that every role brings different challenges and new mysteries. It's like going on holiday; I love it. I do,” she added.

And despite having a catalogue of movies under her belt, the 40-year-old actress prefers to take on only one job a year.

“In terms of being a workaholic, that's not for me. I like to think that I have this way of working which is to just do one thing a year, which often can take four or five months of my life,” she said.
