I still dont understand the criteria for her being "done"

Is it a flop film? Coz there are two flaws with that approach.
A) Kareena's always had flops. She never rose up due to hits, never was down due to flops
B) If it's flop that's the criteria, why no one wondering about Priyanka and Vidya, who's last films were flops as well.

Is it hype in the sense of personal life, coz of course she's married, she wont have that "when will she get married or who is she linked to" hype

Is it projects in the pipeline?
Coz she has 2 HUGE projects in her kitty. She's doing less films now, yes, but in an interview that came out months before her marriage, she confessed that she's exhausted doing 4 films a year and wants to change up her strategy and do maybe one or two. And that she doesnt wanna be overexposed either, so it's best to be selective then.

So what exactly is the criteria here for being "done"?

Done in as being done...with her acting career. I don't think flops matter to her & then there are hardcore fans like us who will watch all her movies for her, but then at this point I don't know whether she will be appreciated for the Bodyguard, Ra-one kind of roles that she does for too long to rake in big numbers at BO!! And I don't know if she wants to do heroine oriented, heavy kind of cinema. GTPM may be a gr8 role for her..it's her strength & if it's not accepted, I don't see her being offereds such roles in the future as there are pari & others willing to do it, for less money! And Shuddhi reminds me of Ashoka for all the wrong reasons😕So I don't know, she needs a revamp of her image to stay in the industry & Kareena is the kind who will do something only if she wants to & believes in it. I just hope she doesn't fade off like Kajol with so much talent. BW is not easy on married actresses & with Aish's fiasco with Heroine, producers are scared!

People don't say Vidya is over because Vidya was never part of this race. She does not compete for the same roles as the likes of Katrina/Deepika/Priyanka. Her appeal has always been completely different. Vidya's films are commercial in a different way. Priyanka also is better at balancing, so if one option closes, the other one is still there. But Priyanka is also on the last leg of her career, at least as a commercial heroine.

Kareena competes for those roles. In fact, those are the roles she wants to do...big stars, big PH's, big budgets...she doesn't care for those small budget roles with good scripts and good roles for her. Hence she is not even approached for them anymore. There are better ie younger options for the commercial films she wants to do now.

Karan has films for her. But he is running a business not a charity. There's only so much he can do. He has stopped giving Kajol films too, toh Kareena kaun hai? Anyways, Alia is his new fav. He is working with lots of young actors, who need young, compatible heroines with them.

what with selling colgate toothpaste, levi handbags some metro shoes.

What does brand endorsements have to do with acting career😕 Aish was a model, ms.world & has some int. brands trying to get into India as she has a gr8 photogenic face!!
Kareena's problem is her body of work does not match her talent! And this is the time for her to do gr8 roles that are memorable but she prefers to stick to big budget, beaten to death roles! She did heroine which was different, even daring for her but the script was so crappy, no actress could save it & this is where Kareena has to use Saif's good script sense. I think he knows exactly what works for him(exception being cocktail😆) & has been able to survive tho' he has never been in the league of SRK/Sallu! Kareena needs to find that sweet spot!

why i am bringing endorsement cos i hope some don't get their hopes high, chalo, at least our kareena will be like ash, always in news and as popular. NO. she can't match ash here.

actually now that you have brought in kareena's body of work, i think ash might even win here. say for eg. if tomorrow bhansali and KJO decide to produce and direct a movie together, and the toss is between kareena and ash. tell me who is going to win? honestly tell me?

i seriously think chances are from this married curse, ash and vidya are going to be picked over mrs kajol and kareena now. seriously. i know its scary but...

and about heroine, can you see how kareena is replaceable. when she had date problems and couldn't do heroine, did madhur wait for her. no. he went straight to ash.
when bhansali got news of kareena's marriage, immediately she was replaced.
she can very easily get replaced with other actresses. if she such a big star and so talented how come producers and directors are not willing to wait for her. i bet bhansali can wait for ash. believe me. .

ohh now this is killing, she is NOT doing small movies like vidya and pc, BECAUSE, she is NOT getting offers for those either. yes, its hard to digest this, but i think this is the truth. kareena kapoor is not getting a barfi, kahaani, mary kom offers from producers, not because she is a some big shot, but its because producers feel vidya and pc will deliver better than kareena. maybe they find kareena an average performer. there you go. yup...kareena is not getting great roles cos the first choices for these great roles are vidya and pc.


just last month i was reading an interview of hers, where she said she is not like other actresses running around the trees or something. now tell me what is she doing in chewing gum chabake. after 13 yrs still doing this.

well i hope gtpm does some magic, cos i do like to see an underdog come out shining. hell i supported kareena when she was in dungeon, and then jwm happened. but after jwm, if one sees her resume, it totally sucks. don't know, i say its too late.

oh and saif WHO?
