Mumbai:
Actor Arjun Kapoor feels his Ki And Ka co-star Kareena Kapoor Khan is a simple person, who doesn't take her stardom seriously, and said that is her biggest asset.
Arjun found it quite easy to work with his childhood crush Kareena in the R Balki-directed film. "The first thing I learnt is being simple, she has not lost herself after being here for a long time. She has always been the same person. She is the same person on sets as she is off it. She doesn't take her stardom seriously. I think that is her biggest asset," Arjun told PTI.

The 30-year-old actor, who is all praise for the Jab We Met actress, further said that she listens to her directors very patiently.
"She is a gifted actor, she listens to her directors. As an actor, she just patiently listens to what the director wants. A lot of people have their opinion or point of view, but Kareena doesn't do that, she still listens to her directors," Arjun said.
"That humility towards your craft is something I love. Films are as good as directors, actors are selfish people, directors see the bigger picture," he said. (Also Read: 'Arjuntina'-Bound Khatron Ke Khiladi Really Doesn't Like Ceiling Fans)
Arjun also said he did not feel intimidated by Kareena. "I have been a fan of hers as she is a fantastic actor. I have grown up in the industry. I know Kareena for years even before she became an actress. She has done four films with my father. She is not one of those actors who intimidates another person, we have fun on the sets," he said.
"We have now known each other for quite some time, its normal for us. We did not have to break the ice or create chemistry. We have a fantastic director, great actors and a great story. We finished the film in less than 50 days," he added.
Of reports that he would be working with his uncle Anil Kapoor in the remake version of Chacha Batija, Arjun said, "It is not true."
The actor is also quite excited about his stint on small screen as a host with adventure reality show Khatron Ke Khiladi.
