Kareena Kapoor has opened up about the kind of conversations she wants to have with her sons, Taimur and Jeh, after watching films that deal with difficult and disturbing subjects.
Speaking at the trailer launch of Daayra, the actor said such stories make her "terrified" as a mother and make her want to raise her sons to be kinder and more emotionally aware.
"I am a mother of two sons, and I am terrified because, as a mother, you want to do your best and you want to protect them. You also want to show them that they are responsible. So, all I wish for is that they should be kinder. Men should be kinder. Boys should be kinder," Kareena said.
She also spoke about how boys should be encouraged to express their emotions rather than being taught to hide them.
"There is this thought that a girl is always very sensitive, but that is not true. Some men and boys have no fear of crying in front of a girl or their mother. I always tell my sons that if they want to cry, they should. They should experience that," she said.
Kareena also recalled a scene from Daayra that left her disturbed but was also one of her favourites.
"In this film, some scenes would automatically choke you. I did a scene in this movie, which is also my favourite. It just talks about how 'galti hamesha ek ladki ki hoti hai'. If you see that scene and how Meghna Gulzar has written it, I was disturbed by that scene, but it was also my favourite scene. I did enjoy it as it was challenging," she said.
