Kareena Kapoor Khan recently expressed her admiration for Hollywood star Brad Pitt after watching his new film, "F1". The Bollywood actress took to her Instagram stories to share a still from the movie, accompanied by a caption that read, "Who wants to be 20 when you can look like this at 60," followed by star and love-struck emojis.

"F1," directed by Joseph Kosinski, has been generating buzz since its release. The film centers around Sonny Hayes, a veteran Formula One driver portrayed by Brad Pitt, who returns to the sport after a 30-year hiatus. He aims to assist his former teammate's struggling F1 team from collapse. The movie also features Damson Idris, Kerry Condon, Tobias Menzies, and Javier Bardem.

Kareena Kapoor is not the only Bollywood celebrity to have praised "F1" and Brad Pitt. Ananya Panday also shared her excitement about the film on Instagram, expressing her love for movies, F1, popcorn, and Brad Pitt. Karan Johar, the filmmaker, shared his views on social media, acknowledging the film's familiar tropes but highlighting its entertainment value and Brad Pitt's effective performance.

The admiration seems to be mutual. Back in 2012, during the promotions for his film "Killing Them Softly," Brad Pitt was asked about the comparisons between him and Angelina Jolie with Saif Ali Khan and Kareena Kapoor. Pitt acknowledged that they were a good-looking couple and wished them luck for their marriage.

"F1" has garnered attention for its racing sequences and Brad Pitt's performance. Hansal Mehta praised Pitt's ability to carry silence and wear fatigue with grace. However, he also noted that the film relies on familiar screenwriting tropes and that the treatment of the supporting cast could have been better. Some internet users have even drawn comparisons between "F1" and the 2007 Bollywood film "Ta Ra Rum Pum," starring Saif Ali Khan, with director Siddharth Anand responding playfully to the comparisons.

Beyond his recent role in "F1," Brad Pitt also recently shared a funny anecdote from his early career. While promoting "F1" on the New Heights podcast, Pitt confessed to a blooper involving a plate of beans that led to the film crew clearing out.
