For that he need to direct or produce such movie. If we look at the movies he directed or produced there are only handful of them which has substantial role for a female actress.

Kuch Kuch Hota Hai- Kareena didn't enter the industry.
Kal Ho Na ho - She rejected the movie.
Kabhi Alvida Na Kehna/Dostana - I guess at that time he was pissed off at Kareena for rejecting KHNH.
Kurbaan- During this time they patched up. So kareena got the role
Wake up Sid - Couldnt cast Kareena , Ranbir being the lead.
My Name is Khan - May be he thought Kareena wont be convincing playing mother to a 6 year old. So he chose older Kajol.
We are Family - Kareena was there.
I hate luv story - nothing substantial.
Agneepath - nothing substantial.
Ek Main aur ek tu - kareena was there
Student of the Year - all are youngsters
Yeh Jawani Hai Deewani - Ranbir is the lead
Dostana 2- Abhishek has problem working with her. So for continuity sake he had to choose Abhishek.

Kareena's roles in We Are Family + Kurbaan are amongst her best ever. She was so effortless in Kurbaan and WAF was not an easy character to portray and she played it absolutely wonderfully.

Even Ek Main Aur Ek Tu - the role was amazing and she really surprised me, I didn't think she'd be able to carry off the young care-free girl attitude so naturally - especially after seeing her in films like Bodyguard + Ra.One where she was more mature.

But the bottom line is, Karan Johar is a terrible film maker. He has great ideas but as a director he is too over-melo-camp-tastic-dramatic! She doesn't need to look to him for great work. She should do films like Mahie Gill is doing if she really wants to remain Queen. There is a shift happening in the industry. She needs to crossover or she will fade at the drop of a hat.

Prime examples:
Sridevi - post Lamhe
Madhuri - post DTPH
Rani/Preity - post 2006
