Mumbai: Bollywood actress Kareena Kapoor says her mother-in-law, veteran actress Sharmila Tagore wants to see her in glamorous roles.

Kareena said, "She likes me in glamorous parts. She liked me in the Fevicol song (the item song. She loves singing and dance, so she always says that I should look sexy and glamorous," Kareena told PTI in an interview here.

"I think that is a compliment. I like it," she added.

Kareena, 34, said she took inspiration from her mother-in-law in managing her household and career.

"She is my inspiration as she continued her career despite getting married and having children. She worked with biggest superstars and filmmakers. It is important for me to do that. She will always be my inspiration to have a career and family together," the actress said.

When asked to comment on Sharmilaji's absence from films, Kareena said, "I do miss her in films. I have been a great fan of Hema Maliniji and my mother-in-law. I think they have been iconic actresses."

The Singham Returns actress said she was looking forward to the release of Bajrangi Bhaijaan in which she stars opposite Salman Khan. She plays a school teacher in the film.

"This is a story about how she meets Salman and how she helps him in his journey with the girl to Pakistan. Salman's fans will get to see his different side. It is not which he normally does, a song-and-dance kind of thing. After a long time, there are performances and an in-depth story, drama," Kareena revealed.

The actress, who has worked with Salman in quite a few films, said the Dabangg actor had mellowed down with time.

"I think Salman is lot more calmer now. I think most of the actors that I have worked with from that generation have become like that. I have known them back then, be it Salman, Shah Rukh, Ajay Devgn or Akshay Kumar, they are a lot more calmer now and lot more good-looking," she added.
