Hey

I am not bashing kareena as i like her films and think shes pretty cool. However i am wondering why is the media hyping kareena up after one hit movie soo much? i mean geet was a good role and she did it very well but i do not think it was a amazing role either it was a nice movie with nice characters.I am wondering why medias hyping her up to be the next big thing only two big film shes done that have been hits that i can think of are Jab we met and K3G ..i think they should stop building her up so much they been doing it more since shes going out with saif and lost weight like oh shes the queen bee ..yes shes good but shes still got a long way to go career wise compare her to likes of kajol,madhuri etc who have given so many hits.

Not bashing her just a point about media and her.

Nina

Thanks for saying that.

If we see Katrina and Vidya or soem other actresses they have given hits after hits but are not given any hype.

Endof the day its the HIT movie that mattes but it seems hit movies do not do wonders for few actresses..

I guess it is taking all the credit and making sure people get it that you are the reason taht movie is hit. Bragging it all over the place... 😆

The media is hyping her so much because she is paying for it. The stars these days hire publicists whose job it is to make sure their client is always in the media. Haven't you noticed how some of the so called articles sound more like Bebo "advertisements" rather than genuine.

the media has always been like this with kareena,even when she took a long break from acting,she still made it into the headlines...i have no idea why....i guess media is fascinated with her personal life!!!

I just read the article which seemed so biased and pro kareena with no clue at all in it. Its said "Kareena's good gut feeling helped her not to do a dud like love story 2050".

As if her gut feelings are so great that she has never given a hit....what about Tashan, Khushi, Fida, and the lsit go on.....

yeah it's true, even media didn't hype Rani Mukherjee so much after she played the role of Michelle in Black which I think far more tougher than Geet of JWM.....even Shahid Kapoor after playing the role of Aditya didn't got so much hype..though his role was tougher than Geet....I think Kareena remains in hype for her off screen activities rather her on screen performances....Kareena is definitely good actress but what she tells in public that ...without Rani no one is actress...is not very worthy...so much proud can call sudden fall. Kareena should remember..

She definitely has very strong PR. I am shocked how she manages to be in news all the time. People will get bored of her very soon. Or she is too media hungry and she can do anything to stay in news. Cat fights, affairs etc.

You are so correct she has been hyped by the media beyond limits and surprisingly I couldnt manage to see any article about Imtiaz Ali who actually made the character and directed the movie.........

All these years she's been talked about alot......... Katrina and vidya have given more boxoffice hits then kareena in there short careers yet it is her who is hogging all the limelight.............

I think Vidya or Priyanka or Katrina or even Kajol..they give hit and then start concentrating over their next movie.

But Kareena wants to squeeze all she can out of the movie...simpky for the reason that she herself is not very sure about her career...she is not sure when she is going togive another hit. See JWM happened after so many years.

Same like with Shahid on KWK she was trying to give money numbers for Vivah while Shahid was "ok it is a hit and I am happy" but he was not stating the numbers and trying to get attention.

Plus now she has the same PR as of her for Saif and thats whay he is always in the news too. Saif mentioned it in one of his interview that "My and KAreena has the same PR and he is trying ot get us endorsement togather but till now we have nothing"...while if you go by Kareena then "Saif and I are being offered huge amount of money to be togatherin an ad"....Please someone show me a single... ad after a year......

Hype is carefully created!

we heard Kareena tell us a few days back how happy she is that Saif was visiting her on saturday in L.A. for 2 weeks...


earlier, he was going to watch her show in Amsterdam..

Then she would spend 2 days in London with her precious Saif..


How Saif was happy to see her eating Samosas in Australia

'So sweet of Saif coming just for 3 hours to Bangkok...'

Then Saif's weekly briefings about how he is dying
without Kareena..

Poor kareena ..sooo busy ,so many films and has to shoot for 9 Adfilms too. Kareena is the highest paid actress,Kareena is the no.1 star.,she has maximum no. of endorsements,..Kareena is so hot and sexy!😆


Come on,there are other stars in bollywood too!They too are busy,have careers and love lives!!how come no one knows every detail about them??!!

ANSWER
Karan Johar admits this in his blog..

"We like to be in the news, and to make sure of that we employ publicists who plant stories under our surveillance that we later deny with an absolute straight face. It's called "The Art of Convenient Alzheimer's." Of course within close, or not so close circles, we go on about the invasive paparazzi and the trashy tabloids. The truth is we love the invasion and we feed off the trash. We deny this of course. It's a vicious circle that we're completely square about."

Well some believe in it and use it more than the others!
