Kareena Kapoor Bio

Kareena Kapoor, informally known as Bebo, is a leading actress in mainstream cinema in Bollywood with a huge number of critically and commercially successful films to her credit. She made her debut in Bollywood opposite Abhishek Bachchan in the movie Refugee, directed by J.P.Dutta in 2000. Though the film failed to light up the box office, her performance was duly noted and appreciated by critics. She starred in the period melodrama Kabhi Kushie Kabhi Gham(2001) and went onto receive a nomination for Filmfare Best Supporting Actress category. The film also went onto become the highest box office grossing film for the year 2001. To avoid being labelled as a type cast, she diversified her roles and featured in Chameli(2004) which was a milestone in her career. Her performance in Omkara(2006) directed by Vishal Bharadwaj, was included in "Top 80 Iconic performances" by Filmfare. Other equally proficient performances by her are Jab We Met(2007), opposite Shahid Kapoor and the highest grossing movie of her career 3 Idiots(2009). Jab We Met earned her a Filmfare award for the Best Actress and 3 Idiots earned her a nomination under the same category. In addition to acting, she is also involved in Humanitarian causes and has also announced she will be launching her own clothing line sometime in future.
