"We cried a lot, we prayed...": Kareena Kapoor Khan reflects on 2025, pens emotional note
Mumbai, December 31
Bollywood star Kareena Kapoor Khan is all set to welcome 2026 with immense gratitude and positivity.
On New Year's Eve, Kareena took to Instagram and penned an emotional note, reflecting on a challenging 2025 with her husband, Saif Ali Khan, and their family.
"As we sit down and reflect on the fact that we made it to the last day of the year...we walked this far.2025 has been a difficult year for us,our children and our families...but we went through it head held high, laughing and holding on," she wrote.
The 'Jab We Met' star admitted that there were many challenges and tough phases in 2025, moments when they cried a lot but they also learned invaluable lessons along the way.
"We cried a lot,we prayed and now we are here...2025 taught us that human nature is fearless ,love will conquer all and that children are braver than we think...We want to thank our fans,our friends and everyone who stood by us and continue to support us...and above all the lord almighty We are entering 2026 with a renewed fire in our bellies,immense gratitude and positivity and an undying passion for what we do best ..the movies...Like i always say CHAR DI KALA Happy new year everyone," she concluded.
2025 began on a difficult note for Kareena, as Saif was attacked by an intruder who allegedly entered their home with the intent to commit theft in January. The year grew even more painful in June, when Karisma's ex-husband, Sunjay Kapur, passed away, leaving his children, Kiaan and Samaira, mourning the loss.
Kareena and her family conquered all odds with love and positivity. Now she is looking forward to seeing what 2026 has in store for her.

"Char di kala" – such a positive spirit! It's a good reminder for all of us. Everyone faces tough years, even celebrities with all their wealth. Her focus on family is very relatable.
Respect for her honesty. Losing a family member (Sunjay Kapur) is never easy, especially for the kids. Glad they are supporting Karisma and the children through it. Family first, always.
While I admire her positivity, I do feel a bit disconnected. This level of personal security breach is something most Indians can't even fathom. But her message of hope is universal.
True star power isn't just about box office numbers, it's about grace under pressure. The Kapoor-Khan family showed that this year. Onwards and upwards! ✨
Her note felt very genuine, not like a PR statement. "We cried a lot, we prayed" – that's so real. Wishing them lots of love and amazing movies in the new year!
