I don't think Aish ever had a consistent graph..she has always been going up & down.
Moreover, Kareena is in her own league, whereas Preity & Rani are in a completely different one altogether. Kareena started her career in 2000 & didn't receive massive popularity until Jab We Met..before that she only had one or two films here & there which she got appreciated it for, but she was never an instant fav nor was she leading a lot of actresses. It's fair to say she improved as an actress over the years & has come a long way to be where she is..however, to degrade Rani & Preity as if they were nobodies in front of Kareena is nothing a but a joke.
No one cared about Kareena btwn 2000-2006. ..btwn 1998-2007ish , Rani & Preity were prominent actresses..not Kareena. whether or not you liked them as actresses is a total different thing altogether. I'm sure many people currently dislike Kareena that doesn't deny the fact that she's one of the top actresses in bollywood today, does it? Every actress has their time in bollywood..Rani & Preity had their time & now it's Kareena's..they all peaked at different times, so not sure how one can say so & so has surpassed the other. One thing that Kareena's lucky with is that she peaked later on in her career at a time where bollywood started thinking out of the box, so most of her best work will be quite different than that of Rani & Preity's..as I said Rani & Preity peaked way earlier so their career graphs obviously are different than that of Kareena's. Overall, in terms of likability & fondness..Rani & Preity onscreen will always be remembered ahead of Kareena amongst the majority.
