Kareena Kapoor's Mind Versus Heart Conflict

Bollywood actress Kareena Kapoor has returned from her London vacation to a blockbuster Singham Returns. The movie has crossed the Rs 100 crore mark. But whether this is a redeeming act for Kareena on the silver screen is a question only she can answer, especially since she hasn't always made the right choices when it comes to selection of films in the past.

Queen, Ram-Leela and Fashion were films that were well received critically as well as financially. So who should they owe these performances to? The directors? The script? Or the supporting cast? The correct answer is Kareena Kapoor. Yes, long before these ladies got down to working on their respective projects, it was Bebo who was offered these films.

When Kareena was once asked about how she reacted when people like Anurag Kashyap advised her not to bother about who was acting in the movie but on the content, she replied, "That's the best piece of advice I've ever got and I should have got it from a lot of closer friends, but I'm happy that Anurag decided to say that because the fact is that it is the truth and my mother, my sister, Saif everyone stands by that."

The actress revealed that her decision to do certain films in the past was influenced by factors like friendship and now she would make more rational decisions in the future.

Kareena has also reportedly been talking about the films she had rejected in the past, which has not gone down to well with at least two of the leading ladies. In an interview, Deepika Padukone, who replaced Kareena in Ram-Leela, said, "It's silly for actors to talk about films that they didn't do because they are remembered for the ones they did."

Priyanka Chopra too has something to say about how she never takes credit for the Rs 100 crore-fetching films that she does, especially Krrish 3 and Don 2 and Agneepath. "I cannot take credit for the success of Krrish 3 and Don 2, I was just a supporting actor in the films and did not carry the movie on my shoulders. My film Barfi! also made Rs 100 crores, but Ranbir, Ileana and I had an equal contribution to make.

So, was Singham Returns a success only because Kareena was a part of it? Would 3 Idiots make the same amount of money without Kareena? Could SRK ever deliver a blockbuster with Ra One without his Chammak Challo are questions only Kareena can answer.
