Kareena Kapoor did go to Harvard to study computer science but 'ran away' after just 3 months. What happened?
Before becoming one of Bollywood 's most iconic stars, Kareena Kapoor Khan took a brief detour from films to pursue academics—one that included a short stint at Harvard University . While many associate the Kapoor clan with cinema, Kareena's time at the prestigious institution is a chapter that not many fans were familiar with. A Kapoor at Harvard Kareena Kapoor created a buzz when she revealed that she had enrolled for a short course on Micro Computers at Harvard University. In a resurfaced video featuring her in conversation with actors Vijay Varma and Jaideep Ahlawat, she proudly acknowledged being the first from her family to attend Harvard. But what caught everyone's attention was her confession that she left the course just three months in because it was too demanding.

Responding playfully to skepticism about her claim, Kareena clarified that it was a legitimate course and not just for show. She described the experience as overwhelming but reiterated that she did attend, calling herself 'the first brainy Kapoor,' though in a tone that seemed self-aware and humorous. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Er baute ihn in seiner Garage – nun erobert er Deutschland showbizinsider Undo Academic Phase That Didn't Last Long This wasn't Kareena's only foray into education. Long before her film debut in Refugee (2000), Kareena had briefly considered a career in law. She attended Government Law College in Mumbai but quickly lost interest, finding it too tedious. Her stint at Harvard followed soon after. Though her interest in academics was genuine, she admitted that her decision to join Harvard was partly motivated by a desire for a new experience. In past interviews, Kareena mentioned that her summer school experience at Harvard gave her a sense of independence and broadened her perspective. She remembered the campus fondly and even kept a photo from her time there. Despite leaving early, she remained proud of having stepped into an academic world far removed from the film industry. A Family Surprise For the Kapoor family—known more for its cinematic legacy than academic credentials—Kareena's move to Harvard came as a surprise. She once shared that relatives reacted with disbelief and excitement when she went abroad to study. Many in her family over-celebrated the achievement, joking that a "Kapoor girl with no brains" had gone to Harvard, reflecting the family's self-deprecating humor about their academic record. Even Kareena's mother Babita and sister Karisma initially opposed the idea. However, she went ahead and enrolled, later joking that she went more 'to have a good time' than to seriously pursue computer science. Ultimately, the lure of the screen proved stronger than the classroom.
