It's easy to be carried away by the glamour of the film industry but Bollywood actress Kareena Kapoor says she and her husband, actor Saif Ali Khan, are very much in touch with reality.

"Saif is still in touch with his professors and teachers. These days people party with the same industry people and want to be with them but we don't attend many parties. It's important that we should meet normal people too," Kareena said at an interaction here.

"We don't like to only be in touch with the industry people. We work, but we are in touch with our college friends too. So we are in touch with reality, or else in this industry and in this glamour world, one can easily get carried away," she said.

The actress, who comes from Bollywood's famous Kapoor family, says she has never chased success in her life.

"I am very dedicated to my work but at the same time I have also lived my life. Each actor gets so lost in the competition and the glamour of this industry that they are always chasing success. I don't think I have ever chased success.

"I have lived my life along with my career. My parallel life is always there with me. I don't go away from reality," added Kareena, who made her Bollywood debut in 2000.

Kareena is currently busy promoting her film "Gori Tere Pyaar Mein", directed by Punit Malhotra. Releasing Nov 22, the film also features Imran Khan.
