"Never say never": Kareena Kapoor Khan tries her hand at paddle ball game
Mumbai, May 30
Bollywood star Kareena Kapoor Khan is a fitness enthusiast. From performing yoga asanas to indulging herself in strength training exercises at home, the 'Jab We Met' star loves to explore different fitness routines to stay healthy, active, and in shape. And now this time, she has tried her hand at a game of paddle ball.
On Friday evening, took part in a padel session. Sharing a picture from the court, she quipped "Never say Never" as she entered her 'padel era'.
Kareena was accompanied by her yoga coach, Anshuka Parwani.
Meanwhile, on the work front, Kareena is set to appear in 'Daayra,' an investigative crime thriller directed by Meghna Gulzar. The film also stars Prithviraj Sukumaran.
In September 2025, the lead stars of the film shared glimpses from the first day of shoot, adding several BTS moments."Day 1. 68th film Daayra with the most amazing @meghnagulzar and @therealprithvi...Send love and blessings," Kareena wrote in the caption.
From holding a puja ceremony on the first day of production to discussing scenes with director Meghna Gulzar, trying look tests, shooting scenes, and reading scripts, the actor offered an intimate insight into their preparations.
In a special highlight, veteran lyricist Gulzar also arrived on the sets and engaged in a conversation with the team. Likewise, Prithviraj expressed a feeling of thrill in his post as he added, "#Daayra is officially rolling. A new story, a new journey that challenges and excites in equal parts. Thrilled to be stepping into this world."
Director Meghna Gulzar dedicated a special post to mark the beginning of a journey of "blurred and crossed lines."
Kareena was last seen in 'Crew,' a 2024 heist comedy co-starring Tabu and Kriti Sanon. She also featured in 'The Buckingham Murders', a crime thriller released in September 2024, where she took on a more intense role.

Paddle ball? Seems like another celebrity fitness fad. But credit to her for staying active—I guess if you have a personal yoga coach, anything is possible! Still, I'd rather see her back in strong roles like in 'The Buckingham Murders.'
Love how Kareena embraces "never say never"! She's always reinventing herself, whether it's fitness or films. And seeing Gulzar ji on set gives me chills—Daayra is going to be something special! 🤩
Honestly, this is just PR fluff. She's promoting a movie, and the paddle ball thing is just a photo op. Bollywood stars are always doing this—try something trendy, post a picture, and call it inspiration. Meh.
Kareena Kapoor Khan never fails to amaze! From her yoga sessions to this paddle game, she shows that fitness doesn't have to be boring. And with Meghna Gulzar at the helm, Daayra is already on my must-watch list! ✨💪
I wish more people in India took fitness as seriously as Kareena. Padel is a fun sport, but it's barely known here—she's helping popularize it! Also, Prithviraj and Meghna Gulzar together? That's a power combo! 🔥
