Kareena shared some gorgeous pictures on Instagram, showing a glimpse of her look for the event.

She captioned it, "So honoured to be part of a panel discussion at the WAVES Summit, where India isn't just part of the global entertainment conversation, we're driving it. India is fast emerging as a superpower in the global entertainment industry and this is the beginning of a creative movement that will define the future (sic)."

Yesterday Aamir Khan too emphasized on the lack of theatres in India at the WAVES Summit 2025.

He said, "I have always believed that we have very few theatres for the size of the country and the number of people living in India. In India, we have around 10,000 screens, and in the US, which is one-third of our population, they have 40,000 screens and China has 90,000 screens. And even in this, 10,000, half are in the South and half in the rest of the country. So, for a Hindi film, you have a maximum of 5,000 screens. Our biggest hits over the years, no matter what language, have had a theatrical footfall of three crore people. That's only 2 per cent of our entire population."
