About KI- dont know it was a complete flop or made somewhat money. But I do remember the media mocking Akshay for calling the movie a hit beforehand because after the opening the movie dropped hugely. Also, all Akki movies open well...Blue, DDD. So really, not Kareena's doing. And then all Akki movies end up falling. I would put the blame on Akki here too, to be consistent. But it's not like Kareena was still praised or appreciated for her performance. If that were the case, it wouldve been different.

KKKG, Omkara, Golmaal Returns and JWM.. I don't know whether I can put KI in the hits list. That's an abysmal record. For some reason, even though her acting prowess and Bollywood stature are quite substantial, the fact remains that she cannot lure audiences to see her movies like a Madhuri, Kajol or Katrina can. That's why I always find it strange when people anoint her as the No.! actress.

Hits

MKKH

K3G

Ajnabee

Aitraaz

Hulchul

JWM

Golmaal Returns

Above Average/semi hits

36 Chinatown

Kambakkht Ishq

Chupchupke

The rest are flops.

And btw, kareean DID get good reviews for her role in KI. That's the sad part. Reviews said she was the only actor who made a decent attempt at performing.

Too many films, too many bad ones at that. Poor script selection, and doing everything that's offered to her. She needs to cut down on her work, choose her scripts more carefully.

She doesn't choose wisely.Step mom is okay for Kajol,but too early for Bebo.She needs box office success now more than ever and this weepy is not the film.

She has Agent Vinod...Well,what can be more embarassing than producers asking for budget cut and reworking the script.Recession is over and If producers have earlier refused to shell out money even before the film starts,it was not made so public.

I don't know of any other films in the pipeline,there must be a few...

Bad choices in film. Like someone has mentioned earlier .. it's her Kapoor name that has helped her stick around for so long. Except for JWM and Chameli, nothing else Kareena does is really all that memorable. This is just my opinion.

I'd rather her do great roles like in Stepmom and Agent Vinod than worry about doing a box office comedy caper where she stands by and does nothing .SHe was offered Golmaal 3, and offered 10 crores for her role. She turned it down, thank god.

It's a fact of life....four things help you stick around in Bollywood 1) a good surname 2) good looks 3) lots of media coverage for affairs, cat fights, nose jobs whatever the hell u want 4) relationships. I am not gonna name names but we know there are people int he industry who get by (and has gotten by) without even knowing how to act or giving 10 flops because they possessed one or more of the four things. They all got 50 million chances before they were even decent or had a decent hit for the above 4 reasons. Of course if you know how to act and you have one or more of the four things as well...then you are here to stay hits or flops. Until the system changes....no point picking on Bebo or anyone else!
