I'm not a feminist, I believe in equality: Kareena

Actor Kareena Kapoor Khan, who will soon be seen in Veere Di Wedding, says she is not a feminist and believes in equality.
Asked about the idea of feminism, Kareena said: "I believe in equality. I wouldn't say I am a feminist, I would say I am a woman and above all, I am a human being. I am also as proud to be known as Saif Ali Khan's wife, as I am to be Kareena Kapoor. So that is just the way I am."
Veere Di Wedding is a female buddy film about four girls living in an urban setting and their struggles in life. Kareena has always been vocal about her personal life, but in this film, she playing a character which is commitment phobic.
Asked about her role selection criteria, she said: "I think what made me take up this part is that for me, as a commercial mainstream actor who is always used to work with mainstream actors, be it Shah Rukh Khan or Salman Khan... For me, it was very different to be part of a film with four girls.
"I think the story is something I got completely obsessed by and I thought it was really unique. As far as my character Kalindi is concerned, I think she is really cool and there is a reason why she is commitment phobic, which will be seen in the film," she said.
Known for working with A-list actors in Bollywood, this time she is paired with Sumeet Vyas. On this, she quipped: "I think I have chosen A-Lister heroine this time."
Sharing her funniest memories from the film's set, the actor said: "I think it would be throwing Sumeet Vyas off the moon in the film. That was quite funny because I have never done that in my career. I never had the opportunity to throw a hero off from a moon.
The film Veere Di Wedding will be released on June 1.
