Actress Kareena Kapoor Khan took to social media on Friday to share a thoughtful parenting hack with her fans, reminding them that every stage of a child’s development comes with its own challenges.

Taking to Instagram Stories, Kareena, who has 12.9 million followers, has re-shared an insightful message which highlights that “babies cry, toddlers have tantrums, kids talk back, and teenagers test boundaries. None of this means you are failing.” Kareena’s words resonate with many, offering reassurance and support to fellow parents navigating the ups and downs of raising children. She captioned it as: “Good morning…Read that again.”

On the personal front, Kareena is married to actor Saif Ali Khan. The duo had tied the knot on October 16, 2012, in a private ceremony in Bandra, Mumbai. The couple have two sons — Taimur and Jeh.

Saif is the son of former captain of the Indian national cricket team, Mansoor Ali Khan Pataudi, and actress Sharmila Tagore. He has two younger sisters, designer Saba Ali Khan and actress Soha Ali Khan. He was first married to actress Amrita Singh. The couple have two children — actress Sara Ali Khan and son Ibrahim. They got separated in 2004.

Meanwhile, on the work front, Kareena was last seen in heist comedy film “Crew.” The movie featured Tabu and Kriti Sanon alongside Kareena in the lead roles. Diljit Dosanjh and Kapil Sharma played pivotal characters in the Rajesh Krishnan directorial film.

She next has “Singham Again” in the pipeline. On the other hand, Saif made his acting debut in 1993 with a leading role in the movie “Parampara.” The action drama directed by Yash Chopra, featured an ensemble cast of Sunil Dutt, Vinod Khanna, Aamir Khan, Neelam Kothari, Raveena Tandon, Ashwini Bhave, Ramya Krishna and Anupam Kher.

The 54-year-old actor was last seen in the mythological action film “Adipurush.” Saif next has “Devara: Part 1,” Telugu action drama written and directed by Koratala Siva. It is produced by Yuvasudha Arts and NTR Arts. The film stars N. T. Rama Rao Jr. in the titular role, alongside Janhvi Kapoor, Prakash Raj and Srikanth. He also has “Jewel Thief:The Red Sun Chapter” in the kitty.

Meanwhile, filmmaker Hansal Mehta, who is receiving a lot of positive response to his recently released theatrical film “The Buckingham Murders,” has shared why he chose Kareena Kapoor Khan to essay the lead in the film.

The director told IANS that Kareena has the perfect balance of acting prowess and star power but the actor in her is often overshadowed by her star power, and it’s solely because of the audience’s perception. He told IANS, “Kareena is a star with tremendous enduring appeal.

I have always looked beyond that and seen her as a fine actor whose acting prowess has been overshadowed by her glamour. I wanted to subvert that glamour and explore Kareena the actor and I was thrilled when she agreed to do the film. What a fine actor she is. And a terrific collaborator on set”.
