People are STILL hung-up over Rani and Preity?! I like them, don't get me wrong, but there are other actors in the industry who deserve this sort of attention more. Rani is a good actress but so is Kareena, and Preity ain't bad either. Right now, in terms of versatility, consistency, bankability and popularity, Kareena wins it hands down. Let's stop basking in past glory, shall we? If Rani/Preity makes a proper comeback, and manages to stay in the top for at least two years, then we can have this discussion. Otherwise comparing Kareena with Rani/Preity is like comparing Kareena with Madhri/Karishma. Rani/Preity's time is gone (prove me wrong), and I don't say this because they have become oldies (Kareena is only two years younger than Rani as far as I know), but because they look jaded, their appeal is gone, they lack the versatility to play and get into diverse roles, they don't have the bankability and charisma to stay in the top.

Considering all factors, I think Ash can be said to be on per with Kareena (and I don't even think very highly of her acting, and in fact put her below all three of them).

And anyway...I think Kareena will face this sort of criticism for another five years at the very least, but she will survive, I can say that for sure. So I don't think these criticisms should have any effect on the fans as the ones she is being compared to always fade into oblivion but she...remains.


@bold: are you kidding me? Preity & Rani are hardly ever talked about in today's times. 😆 It's all about the current actresses, Katrina, Priyanka, VIdya, Kareena, Deepika etc. I think most of us (excluding Kareena fans)..are trying to make a point that one can't just degrade Preity & Rani like they were nobodies b/c today, someone like Kareena's leading. As I said in an earlier post..it's all about the time these actors/actresses peak. Sure, Rani is merely a few yrs older than Kareena..but she reached heights way earlier. Her career graph is totally different than someone like Kareena's. & we all know how that bollywood isn't great when it comes to welcoming back actresses after a few lows...so, no it's basically just not easy for the likes of Preity or Rani to be accepted like they once were because that's just how bollywood works.

& I think we just have a habit here in this bollywood section to compare Kareena with everyone. Why not compare the likes of Priyanka? or Vidya with Rani/Preity/Aish? 😆 It's really not all about Kareena, or Kareena always facing criticism, IF just makes it seem that way.

well I think everyone is comparing Kareena with the other actresses in different ways. the TM wasn't specific with HOW she surpassed them. in terms of popularity, performance, films, etc. because it would be a different answer for each.

she hasn't surpassed them in performance. I could never take Kareena seriously in the early stages of her career. she improved though. but with Rani, Aish, & Preity, they always knew had to act and they only got better or at least Rani did. I just don't see any essential growth in Kareena's acting since JWM. never a performance that made me go WOW.

that might change with heroine. I don't know ..

WORD!
And true that, what difference does anyone make? Kareeana's success will still be hers 😉
I remember how some boasted similarly of Karisma having more starpower than Bebo and how she's more talented, etc etc.
One Dangerous Ishq later...well, lets just say, Bebo remains undisputed queen 😆

I just hope Kareena comes with a packed performance can't wait for Heroine and her next films, she is way ahead of Rani/Preity. She's done versatile work. Proud of some of her films. Insha Allah hope to see Heroine and get "wowed"

In terms of acting, Rani and Preity were much better.I dont find her ahead of Rani and Preity. Now that being said, kareena CAN act unlike other "actresses" but i find her to be very glamorous. Kareena has a lot of movies coming up and she is not going to go anywhere for the next little while. These movies look promising and i just hope she doesn't do any movies with saif. they never do well. (other than omkara)
Anyways Rani and Preity's era has ended. I like them both but unfortunately their time is not coming back as much as I'd like it back. Soon kareena, katrina, and PC's time will end too and someone else will take over. (Hope katrina's time ends sooner than kareenas)
I am looking forward to Heroine and the movie with Ranbir where they play siblings 😃
