In the recent post, the Laal Singh Chaddha actress shared a selfie wherein she was sitting in her car and was spotted wearing a grey coloured printed t-shirt. She had completed her look with a gold chain and had tied her hair in a back bun with perfect kohled eyes. Kareena was also spotted wearing a mask given the rise in COVID 19 cases. In the caption as well, the Begum of Pataudi urged everyone to wear a mask and take the necessary precautions during the pandemic. Bebo wrote, “No propaganda, just wear your mask.”
