Kapoor: 'Don't compare role to real life'

Kareena Kapoor has said that she will not compare her latest role as a stepmother with her own personal relations with boyfriend Saif Ali Khan's children.

The actress also claims that she got on very well with her co-star Kajol while filming We Are Family, the Indian version of the Julia Roberts hit Stepmom.

She told The Times of India: "We discussed life, relationships and movies during the outdoor shooting of We Are Family. It is an outdated thought that actresses cannot be friends."

Kapoor said that her character "is very complex and complicated. She is contemporary, forward-looking and is awkward with children".

However, the star dismissed parallels about her own attitude to Khan's children, which is reportedly frosty.
