I always thought Karishma was a better actor and had more range. Kareena has mellowed down over the years but she can be really annoying when she wants to beOriginally posted by: atominis
I think both sisters are on par as actors. I do not think Bebo is superior to Lolo in acting. I cannot imagine Kareena in Fiza and Zubeida or even that childlike hypochondriac role in Dhanwaan.
However I do think Kareena has a more confident screen presence compared to Karishma. Karisma's screen presence became confident only post Raja Hindustani and I daresay she towered over Madhuri in the dance off scene in DTPH.
I also feel Karishma aged badly and began looking more mature sooner. Kareena has maintained herself better and has handled her movie choices, offscreen engagements and persona better, keeping up with times.
Some of Karishma's choices like Jaanwar, Haan Maine bhi pyar kiya hai and Baaz baffle me and made me wonder WTF was she thinking.
Karishma has more vulnerability onscreen and Kareena has a highly confident, self assured vibe about her.
