Yes why not. If Ash gets credit for Robot...Kareena must get credit for SR and BB.

No. SR was a hit because of the first one and Ajay. Bebo was just a distraction. Eye candy ect. But being part of SR def put her back on the map after the disaster GTPM. You can't be a hypocrite and make fun of her flop and than hate on her again for being part of SR. However, she def promoted the film a lot.

BB was a hit because of Salman and the story/direction/script. I disagree with the comment that said Bebo wasn't needed in the film. She wasn't needed in SR, but she was needed in BB. Kareena's character was the one who suggests to Salman to take the little girl to Pakistan. She was the voice of reason in the film. She gives Salman many good advice. She acted well. Yes it's a small role but am glad she was part of such a good film. Plus it's doing so much money..even if she isn't responsible for how well it's doing she will benefit from it hugely. It's not Heroine or JWM that makes her one of the top actresses of all time..but films like BB, 3 Idiots and Bodyguard and SR do.


PS PC doesn't wanna take credit for K3 and what not because despite doing these films she can never be/ or was never declared the no. 1 actress. No wonder she doesn't want to take credit and Bebo does. Because Bebo is declared all time top actress of all time but not PC. The day she is declared no. 1 in a Srk or Salman film and says she doesn't wanna take credit is when I believe her or respect her and actually take her seriously. Because right now seems like she's speaking from sour grapes because she isn't no. 1.


The last paragraph makes no sense to me

Whether no. 1 or 3..fact remains a success is a success and every one wants to lap at it..so her not taking credit was something

As for kareena herself..as already cleared..it was JWM which did the trick than these BBs

And sour grapes? Again..she is constantly listed in top 3,4 actresses of all time and has numerous awards and NA in her kitty..doubt there is a case of sour grapes.

Hell NO! Anyone could have pulled off that miniscule of a role. She just wanted to be part of a money making movie and which better than the one starring Sally.

now why would you say that?

Why take credit away from the BEST movie of Kareena's career? Mind you that movie was both a critical AND monetary succcess

She was the soul of that film, and she was amazing in it. Films like JWM ARE the ones that make her a top actress, because people remember her FOR JWM... no one, in a decade or so, is gonna be like "omg yeah, Kareena was so bomb in Bodyguard/BB/SR"


Am not taking any credit away from JWM so please stop assuming things and putting words in my mouth. JWM made people notice her as an actress more than anything. And JWM was a clean hit. Just look at any list that mentions her hits..they don't mention JWM rather they mention 3 idiots and Bodyguard and Talaash and SR.

Also don't people say she did JWM long time back. She needs to do something good. Yes JWM was a turning point in her career and it's the film that she will be remembered for the most..but how long ago was that? She can't survive solely on JWM. Directors don't give her films now saying oh wow she was good in JWM. To get roles and have producers notice her she needs to do films like SR and Bodyguard and BB. That said am not supporting her taking up small and significant roles. But am stating how Bollywood works. Today Jackie gets films because she was part of a hit like Kick. Having commercial success and being part of big films is important that's why all top actress do it.

To be fair she actually had a much better part in BB than I was anticipating. It wasn't a big role for sure but it wasn't a blink-and-miss role either. Her character was impactful and she played it very well, narrative wouldn't worked as well had Rasika not been there to guide Pawan.

I'm sorry, I won't agree with even an iota of that 😆

way to go making Kareena sound like something to sell to bigger actors.

Most people DO in fact remember her as Geet. For Bodyguard, BB, SR, whatever else, she was literally the pretty woman next to Salman/Ajay/whomever.

Yes, JWM WAS a long time back.. people are now wishing she does something of the same sort, make a similar impact.

Jackie gets the kind of films she does because... well, she's Jackie 😆 has she ever shown acting prowess like Kareena has? Nope. So is Kareena's potential MUCH higher than Jackie's? Hell yes!

Also, I find it a bit insulting to Kareena to compare her to Jaqueline. You're the bigger fan of hers, you should defo feel the same

Lol why should you be sorry? I don't care if you agree. 😆 That's why we all have opinions. Not everyone has the same opinion. I don't come on this forum to find people who agree with me. I come here to voice my opinion, You and me never see eye too, so I don't understand why you keep quoting me. Yet again your putting words in my mouth. I didn't only mention Jackie but I mentioned all top actors and said that's why they do commercial films. Yet you choose to focus on Jackie. My point was that no talent or talent commercial films matter big time in any heroine career. But what's the point..like I said we don't see eye to eye.
To be honest...I can say this as nicely as possible..I really don't enjoy arguing with you. You don't seem to get what I say at all. So please..try to not quote me again.

I think kareena's best roles ere in JWM, along with Chameli, Dev, Omkara. She shone in these roles.
She was definitely not just an eye-candy or part of cameos in her earlier movies. I think she has evolved and come a long way, but one part where she sucks is at making good choices for good roles.

I hope she has a substantial role in R. Balki' next.

^ i'm not trying to put words in your mouth re

you mentioned Jackie, I talked about Jackie!

I don't get why people downgrade an actress's worth so wildly around here, that too someone like Kareena who actually has substance to her name

I agree with you here. Esp when her name is taken in d smae breath as Sonakshi, Jackie, or Katrina. Though I feel even Sonakshi has potentiual, but Kareena has a solid body of work behind her. Its the only in last few years this problem surfaced.
