I don't want be size zero any more: Kareena Kapoor

Mumbai, Dec 12 (IANS) Size zero is out for actress Kareena Kapoor. In her next release, 'Kambakht Ishq', she plays a surgeon who moonlights as a supermodel and for it she has put on extra pounds.

'I weigh 54 kg now, which for a girl of my height is quite fine. People used to wonder what 'size zero' is and I'd joke, 'Just look at me'. I don't want that any more. I want to look like a normal healthy girl. My forthcoming releases required me to get back to a fuller shape,' said Kareena, who sported size zero in 'Tashan' and 'Golmaal Returns'.

'In 'Kambakht Ishq', my character flies to Italy to become a supermodel to support herself financially. I didn't want to play the character looking like an international model because she's basically in another profession. So she can't really have the figure of Victoria Beckham, can she? I had to look more filled up,' she told IANS.

In 'Mr & Mrs Khanna' too, Kareena is sporting the same look.

'Again, for my next release 'Mr & Mrs Khanna' with Salman Khan, I play a wife. So I wanted to look more filled up. Not that wives can't be curvaceous. The one I played in 'Golmaal Returns' certainly was,' she said.
