In the early 2000s, there was intense competition in the film industry, and rumours mills had that these two leading ladies, who were co-starring in the movie ‘Aitraaz,’ were in a feud or at odds with each other with some suggesting that they had a heated argument that it almost came to physical blows. However, in a recent interview with MidDay, Kareena Kapoor dismissed these rumours and clarified the situation.

Kareena denied any such altercation, stating, “No, no, no, all rubbish. I was like, ‘What is going on?’ But I think maybe we all had that energy – you know, some sort of thing, where we were all wanting to prove ourselves.” Further, talking about reports of catfights, Kareena stressed, “Oh God! The ’90s were full of it (catfights), the ’90s started, and in 2000, everyone was having a catfight. Kuch bhi bol do (You say anything) and catfight. Today, I mean, you don’t even hear those things, you know. Who knows? It must be happening as a thought, but things are a little different and more chilled out (now).”
