Why Was Kareena Kapoor Sent a Legal Notice?
In May this year, Kareena received a notice from the Madhya Pradesh High Court for using the word ‘Bible’ in the title of her book, ‘Kareena Kapoor Khan’s Pregnancy Bible.’ It happened after Christopher Anthony, a social activist from Jabalpur, stated that the word ‘Bible’ in Kareena’s memoir’s title is hurtful to the sentiments of the Christian community. “The Bible is the holy book of Christianity all over the world and it is wrong to compare Kareena Kapoor Khan’s pregnancy with the Bible,” he is reported to have said in his petition.
Talking about her book, the Crew actress in one of her post stated, “This has been quite the journey. Both my pregnancies and writing my Pregnancy Bible. There were good days and bad days; some days I was raring to go to work and others where I struggled to get out of bed. This book is a very personal account of what I experienced both physically and emotionally through both my pregnancies.”
Kareena’s book, ‘Kareena Kapoor Khan’s Pregnancy Bible’, was published in August 2021 and initially gained popularity, even making it to the bestsellers list. However, the controversy surrounding its title led to a legal notice from the Madhya Pradesh High Court.
On the professional front, the diva is gearing up for the release of her The Buckingham Murders followed by Singham Again this year.
