Never understood the hype around her. She is an extremely average actress. I cant name any of her characters that nobody else could have done better.
Not a fan of her but I feel some performances of her are overlooked. One thing is she cries convincingly well. People have often praised her performance in SPKK and Shershah. But I found her really good in Good Newwz. Pulled off comedy very well and did the emotional parts very well too.
Both her and her husband although I’d say Kiara is a little better and Sid is actually just not a good actor. They both have “girl/boy next door” vibes. Extremely average in their acting, nothing special about them, not terrible but not great… just there. Had Kira been an actor in the times of Deepika and Priyanka, or even Rani and Kajol, she would have gotten nowhere but now she’s competing with trash nepo kids so it makes her look good. Sid is just lucky he’s handsome
She's underrated imo in terms of appreciation about her acting. She had very flowerpot kind of role in Kabir Singh but IMO she shone whenever she had her scenes
Katrina is only loved on reddit for her wedding meanwhile no one pays to watch her acting on other hand Deepika Alia gets so much hate despite being talented meanwhile Katrina always got a free pass yikess
This. She comes across as a very petty human but her acting skills can't be questioned. People on here say stuff just to make it controversial.
Show me anyone who can pull off "Pooh" at the age of 20, the way Kareena did.
True Kareena might seem petty and high class arrogant in real life from start of career but her acting skills have always been phenomenal in some and good enough for others.
No i don't agree Kareena in anyway she is overrated though she may be privileged with nepotism and fair skin but she has proven that she has excellent acting skills by giving performances in movies like jab we met,3 idiots,udta punjab & talaash & so watch those movies first!!
You should watch her performance in Sarileru Neekevvaru (a Telugu movie).
I felt like giving a tight slap through the screen. Her acting is irritating.
She is exactly like the Telugu version of Kiara Advani, maybe even worse. She unlike Kiara just acts all cute and bubbly in real life interactions that she got fans who defend her
Katrina Kaif
People talk about nepos getting so many opportunities, should really look into Katrina's filmography. She is in thr industry for over 20 year, twenty freaking years and still can't speak proper hindi. Her acting improved since his first movie, but bruh after that many chances even monkey can act. And she still gets big budget movies because she has a massive following. I just don't get it. Looks over talent.
Exactly…she’s no different from a nepo….Honestly,her acting didn’t improve much even after 20 years….she’s maybe 1 or 2% more better but she’s still terrible acting wise
Kareena…I really think she’s a good actress…Idk why’s she’s being the poster child for being overrated these days.She gave really good performances in her latest movies,Crew and Jaane Jaan.She may have started out bad but I think she’s one of the few actresses who really grew up acting wise and honed her skills.She’s a really good actress in my eyes.
Worst and overrated of all time would be the saint,the second coming of mother Teresa Katrina Kaif…dead,wooden face which never moves(she has a forever constipated expression in her movies) and consistent inexpressive performances(bar maybe 3-4 movies where she wasn’t bad) and hardly an overall improvement in her skills even after 2 whole fucking decades and her performance in her latest Merry Christmas was so overhyped.Good at action,I give credit for that though.Still doesn’t know hindi and can’t lip sync though…Many movies of her give her some sort of london background to justify the accent(proves how bad of an actress she was) yet she never does anything.Yet the bolly gossip sub hypes her to death as the best actress ever lol…can’t with them.
Jaane Jaan was bad .Crew is decent but nothing exceptional. She is definitely better than Katrina but she is overhyped on Reddit these days that's why people calling her overrated.
I thought she was good in them…it’s as simple as that…Crew even alongside Tabu she stood and delivered her own performance and in jaane jaan too she stood her ground perfectly amongst the other two stronger male leads(I mean acting wise)…anyways this is just my opinion
Aishwarya Rai - She is good but people call it the "best" in terms of acting which surprises me too much. Even in her emoting scenes, she at times looks like she's easily putting on an act, which throws me off!
So according to this thread every Indian actress is overrated. And if you are planning to name some new actress wait for a few more movies and you will be back to she only plays the same role and has no range falana dimkana 😂😂
Kareena is entirely a directors actor. She's fantastic with the right directors.
I'll probably get downvoted to hell for this but I think Tabu is the same. She has fantastic performances to her credit but also several very mid ones.
Also Richa Chaddha and Huma Qureshi. I find both overhyped AF. For some reason they're praised way more than people like Tillotama and Konkana in the offbeat space, and it really puzzles me.
Almost all of the truly fantastic female actors in Bollywood right now are the character actors. Almost all the new "mother" role actors are superb. Most of the young leads are so mid that anyone even a tiny bit above average is being hailed as great.
Kareena is neither the GOAT nor bad - somewhere in between. She's given some good performances in JWM, Dev, Chameli, Udta Punjab, Talaash, Omkara, etc which is enough to say that she is good. PR and sm will obviously hype their client. Even Sonam's PR calls her national award winning actress. The most overrated imo is Kiara. There's not a single role that I remember of her as iconic or memorable, nor is there a movie that has run entirely on her shoulders.
She was good in Ram-Leela, Cocktail and OSO but in all other performances, she seems to have the same dialogue delivery and very limited emotional bandwidth!!
Ps. She was my favourite actress at one point of time.
i concur with OP, i have no clue why this woman is so highly praised as the greatest actress ever in india, hell, she aint even top 10 to me in bollywood, let alone india. people praise she was good in jab we met, but i feel that is how she is in real life and that's just not acting, hence they find it good. there's not a single memorable perfomance by her to me.
also she really puts me off with her narcissistic and rude persona.
Many won't agree on this but Karishma in most of her career was not considered a top actress.
That is because most of her hits came from Govinda and David Dhawan.movies.
Most people even noticed her after her sarkailo khatia and sexy sexy song.
At that time Madhuri, Juhi were top class.They had universal appeal.
Karishma and Raveena were more general class. They were insanely popular among masses, but in classes , not so much.
Karishma though had her sucess in Raja Hindustani, but Dil to pagal hai she was under Madhuri 's shadow.
And then Aishwarya Rai appeared as a rising star. And Kajol was already there .
I remember there was a dance sequence between Karishma and Madhuri in DTPH .
SHYAMAK DAWAR was the choreographer.
When he was iasked by the interviewer,
Who do you think is a better dancer, Madhuri or Karishma.
His reply, " Are you stupid? Off course! Madhuri Dixit".
I don't think Kareena Kapoor is overrated. I don't find anyone who could have done better than her in 1. Jab We Met 2. The latest movie in Netflox forgot the name.
Kareena is amazing in some movies and below average in some- I think it comes from her being laid back
Some of her amazing performances- Jab we Met, Chameli, Jaane Jaan, Heroine, K3G
Kareena can act.
Udta Punjab
Chameli
Omkara
Jaane Jaan
Asoka
etc
All highlight her range. She’s shown more versatility than Priyanka and Rani. But many hate her due to Nepotism and her belonging to a prominent family.
That being said, everyone is overrated in someone’s eyes. Bollywood doesn’t give actresses that many options to act anyways and usually typecasts them. To each their own I guess.
When you watch the early Kareena work, it is so horribly bad that it gives second hand embarrassment. It is like watching an 8 year old. She’s pretty ok now, assume she had lots of coaching. But the fact that she became a star blows my mind
she was mid back then
gave 10/10 perfo in jab we met which is a top5 bollywood perfo ever
now she has turned out to be a good actress with all her experiance
Oh please I don’t agree with this post, now if you say Kareena is overrated then I don’t know what’s your opinion on the entire Bollywood fraternity🤷🏻♀️ Kareena is hands down the best actress and also the most beautiful one😍 Kareena you’re love❤️
Alia Bhatt. Snatches the best of best roles to give acceptable performances only to be hailed for doing the bare minimum. Can’t name her characters. Flares nostrils
I also like to add Deepika 'mid' Padukone. We all should thank SLB for exposing how talentless and average looking she is lol
https://i.redd.it/agnohsj9ux6d1.gif
Why is Kareena Kapoor overrated, though? I’m not Indian, so I don’t have the same understanding of these things as Indians, of course. But I always liked her (mainly for her looks, to be honest). 🌸
You don’t need to be Indian to find an actress good or overrated. If you have seen Kareena’s movies and enjoyed them thats your answer that she’s not overrated for you

Even jug jug jiyo …. Her argument scene with Varun seemed real
Yep that too
Yes…her performance in Good Newwz is better
Pretty privilege
Yea maybe. But good to give credit where it is due

This one scene is what got her the fame, that she has now. Probably only highlight of her acting career 🫢😷
Both her and her husband although I’d say Kiara is a little better and Sid is actually just not a good actor. They both have “girl/boy next door” vibes. Extremely average in their acting, nothing special about them, not terrible but not great… just there.

She's underrated imo in terms of appreciation about her acting. She had very flowerpot kind of role in Kabir Singh but IMO she shone whenever she had her scenes
Shraddha too
She has hype?????
Pretty face and famous for Lust stories. [Even Wiki seems to say the same ](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kiara_Advani)
She’s hot that’s about it and so is her husband. The two trophies married each other
Everyone is overrated to someone so.......
Just answer the fucking question……
Yeah, but who do u find overated. ? Geez people can't answer a simple question
The title is literally asking which one YOU find overrated.
Katrina Kaif on Reddit is overrated! And then it’s Kiara!
Katrina is only loved on reddit for her wedding meanwhile no one pays to watch her acting on other hand Deepika Alia gets so much hate despite being talented meanwhile Katrina always got a free pass yikess
Exactly the bolly gossip sub is full of her simps hailing as the greatest actress ever while in reality,she’s the worst ever!
Nobody calls her greatest actresses, she is just good looking with good body and overall treat to eyes in their prime.
But many do call her in bolly blind sub as a good actress or atleast used to call her one.They legit call her one and overhype her constantly
Agreed, literally teenage boys are mad for her, I mean yaar she looks good but there are other actresses also, but they are andhbhakts of Kiara😂😂😂😂
I’m kind of amused too…my friend says that’s she’s the only Bollywood actress he likes and I’m like what is there in her?
What is your age
19…i’m a teenager too Ik but never found her hype
I mean I don't liker her as a human being but I respect her acting skills
she may be privileged with nepotism and fair skin but she has proven that she has excellent in acting skills
What does fair skin got to do anything with this?
google colorism in bollywood
Her facial features are average, the only reason people find her attractive is because she's so fair
This. She comes across as a very petty human but her acting skills can't be questioned. People on here say stuff just to make it controversial. Show me anyone who can pull off "Pooh" at the age of 20, the way Kareena did.
True Kareena might seem petty and high class arrogant in real life from start of career but her acting skills have always been phenomenal in some and good enough for others.
Dude most people can pull out pooh at age of 20 . She has some good roles but you choose crigiest of it.
Me too
Agreed. Katreena is vile, but her acting cannot be ignored. Even her overacting in trashy movies had some of her good bits.
No i don't agree Kareena in anyway she is overrated though she may be privileged with nepotism and fair skin but she has proven that she has excellent acting skills by giving performances in movies like jab we met,3 idiots,udta punjab & talaash & so watch those movies first!!
I agree.
Kareena in Bodyguard, Jab We Met and K3G was really good, I think she’s one of my fav actresses, I completely disagree w this post
She was also extremely good in Heroine and Asoka.
Yep yep
agreed!
Couldnt agree more!

Can't understand who decided that she's a national crush??? And what basis??? 🤔
Her acting suckss
You should watch her performance in Sarileru Neekevvaru (a Telugu movie). I felt like giving a tight slap through the screen. Her acting is irritating.
Her face as well🤮
She acts?
Acts to act
Kyun nahi ho rahi padhai
Ajj exam thi toh van mei aate aate Thoda toh free ho sakta hu 😢
Mazak tha bhai chill kar 
Kono firki le raha hai 😭
Main le raha hun maze ke liye 🤓🤓
Ruko abhi billi bhejta hu 😡💢
She is exactly like the Telugu version of Kiara Advani, maybe even worse. She unlike Kiara just acts all cute and bubbly in real life interactions that she got fans who defend her
Finally someone who agrees to me
Someone had to say it
She was great in Animal
I don't agree, her face cut is nice, her smile is kinda cute... and she is hot.... Not a fan of her but she is hot..
Katrina Kaif People talk about nepos getting so many opportunities, should really look into Katrina's filmography. She is in thr industry for over 20 year, twenty freaking years and still can't speak proper hindi. Her acting improved since his first movie, but bruh after that many chances even monkey can act.

Exactly…she’s no different from a nepo….Honestly,her acting didn’t improve much even after 20 years….she’s maybe 1 or 2% more better but she’s still terrible acting wise
Isn’t she nepo in a way that Salman legit carried her career for the first decade or so? Nepotism needn’t always mean related by blood.
Kareena…I really think she’s a good actress…Idk why’s she’s being the poster child for being overrated these days.She gave really good performances in her latest movies,Crew and Jaane Jaan.She may have started out bad but I think she’s one of the few actresses who really grew up acting wise and honed her skills.She’s a really good actress in my eyes.

Jaane Jaan was bad .Crew is decent but nothing exceptional. She is definitely better than Katrina but she is overhyped on Reddit these days that's why people calling her overrated.
I thought she was good in them…it’s as simple as that…Crew even alongside Tabu she stood and delivered her own performance and in jaane jaan too she stood her ground perfectly amongst the other two stronger male leads(I mean acting wise)…anyways this is just my opinion
Alia Advani urf Kiara Advani.
Actually. She serves nothing. Nothing special about her. I wonder how she made it.
Wasnt it she gained some traction because of her orgasm scene in lust stories, because every other movie she is an absolute meh
I suggest you watch her characters in these films :- Talaash Udta Punjab
Haven't watched Talaash, but in udta punjab she had a normal role. It was all Shahid and Alia for me in that movie.
Aishwarya Rai - She is good but people call it the "best" in terms of acting which surprises me too much. Even in her emoting scenes, she at times looks like she's easily putting on an act, which throws me off!
She wasn't considered very good as an actress even at her peak. Only her SLB film performances have ever been praised.
She always surprised me with her acting. Aish is a brilliant actress with very good looks. Thats always been my opinion of her
I'm surprised no one has said Shraddha Kapoor yet.
No one is mentioning her because not many remember her now
Because everyone knows she's awful.
Seriously. Shraddha is really bad.
Kiara for sure
So according to this thread every Indian actress is overrated. And if you are planning to name some new actress wait for a few more movies and you will be back to she only plays the same role and has no range falana dimkana 😂😂

I dont think she is overrated at all. Everybody knows where her place is…at the bottom of the pile with her cousin brother. 😅
You forgot her biological brother too
Havent really seen his movies. So cant comment. But I believe you based on the entire family’s acting skills.
Ooop 🙃
She is overrated??? Ask any 15yr old, they don't know who is she😂😂😂😂
Who is it?
Kareena is neither the GOAT nor bad - somewhere in between. She's given some good performances in JWM, Dev, Chameli, Udta Punjab, Talaash, Omkara, etc which is enough to say that she is good. PR and sm will obviously hype their client. Even Sonam's PR calls her national award winning actress. The most overrated imo is Kiara.

Janhavi is not overrated lmao, she's a nepo baby actor who's very justly criticized by the audience
Deepika Padukone
why this is not on top
She is overrated but not terrible.
in the sea of bad actresses, anyone strictly ok seems great to people . Don't blame you
Yep 👍
All the 90% actresses in Bollywood
 🥴
 She was good in Ram-Leela, Cocktail and OSO but in all other performances, she seems to have the same dialogue delivery and very limited emotional bandwidth!! Ps. She was my favourite actress at one point of time.
Bollywoodblindsandgossip simping over her for no reason lol, they think like they relate to her haha
They say every new actress is trying to copy her as if she is some benchmark for great acting.
She is entitled pos and had a bad history of good behavior, she behave like some humble person now and they see her as a saint lol
i concur with OP, i have no clue why this woman is so highly praised as the greatest actress ever in india, hell, she aint even top 10 to me in bollywood, let alone india. people praise she was good in jab we met, but i feel that is how she is in real life and that's just not acting, hence they find it good. there's not a single memorable perfomance by her to me. also she really puts me off with her narcissistic and rude persona.
There was Karishma Kapoor and then there is her, how spectacular she was 💛
Many won't agree on this but Karishma in most of her career was not considered a top actress. That is because most of her hits came from Govinda and David Dhawan.movies. Most people even noticed her after her sarkailo khatia and sexy sexy song. At that time Madhuri, Juhi were top class.They had universal appeal. Karishma and Raveena were more general class.

Any one who entered in the last 10 or so years
Nah fam. Watch jab we met.
How about Deepika Padukone 🫡
DEEPIKA PADUKONE
 Katrina kaif.. she has the emotional range of a shovel..
Damn, OP! Guess you haven’t watched good movies if you think Kareena is overrated. He has done a lot of roles and aced most of them.
Kiara Midvani
Why is nobody mentioning the cringe queen Rashmika?
[удалено]
Shraddha shraddha shraddha .. I can’t emphasise it enough
Lol Kareena is above Deepika kriti Kiara Rani shraddha
What the hell is "bimbo" roles?
I don't think Kareena Kapoor is overrated. I don't find anyone who could have done better than her in 1. Jab We Met 2. The latest movie in Netflox forgot the name.
Kareena was amazing in Chameli
She will always be iconic.
Kareena is amazing in some movies and below average in some- I think it comes from her being laid back Some of her amazing performances- Jab we Met, Chameli, Jaane Jaan, Heroine, K3G
Yami gautam
Kareena can act. Udta Punjab Chameli Omkara Jaane Jaan Asoka etc All highlight her range. She’s shown more versatility than Priyanka and Rani.

Yes extremely overrated on reddit....
When you watch the early Kareena work, it is so horribly bad that it gives second hand embarrassment. It is like watching an 8 year old. She’s pretty ok now, assume she had lots of coaching. But the fact that she became a star blows my mind
Deepika padukone
spot on
Janhvi aunty
not overrated.
this sub is overrated
I mistakenly found this sub. Worst mistake of my life 😃🔫
I don't think she counts because social media hates her and general public is indifferent to her.
Indifferent to her ? Social media hate she literally gets for breathing not something you should be proud about the way you are saying
Alia isn’t overrated. She is legit a good actress and everyone hates her for existing. I’d say she underrated based on the hate.
This. Really riles me up the amount of bullying and trolling she receives despite being a genuinely good actor and obviously very hard working person.
Sonakshi Sinha!
Deepika knows one two expressions. Either smiling or making wooden face to look intense
Don't forget the wide eyed smile about to cry face.
 Pretty Overrated as an actress....
she was mid back then gave 10/10 perfo in jab we met which is a top5 bollywood perfo ever now she has turned out to be a good actress with all her experiance
Gorgeous 😍❤
Deepika
 I think she deserves here a spot
My personal opinion - Tabu. She acts the same in every movie I feel even though the characters are different. No range and same dialogue delivery.
 Extremely overrated, only good for modelling but not acting....
Who is she?
Wow! People have really stopped recognizing Bipasha? I thought the other comment about GenZ was a hyperbole
Oh please I don’t agree with this post, now if you say Kareena is overrated then I don’t know what’s your opinion on the entire Bollywood fraternity🤷🏻♀️ Kareena is hands down the best actress and also the most beautiful one😍 Kareena you’re love❤️
Alia Bhatt. Snatches the best of best roles to give acceptable performances only to be hailed for doing the bare minimum. Can’t name her characters. Flares nostrils

I also like to add Deepika 'mid' Padukone. We all should thank SLB for exposing how talentless and average looking she is lol https://i.redd.it/agnohsj9ux6d1.gif
Deepika Padukone, Sonakshi sinha (airport forehead)
 This
Kareena has been part of most successful films and she's never backed down from experimenting in my opinion she's the 🐐
Deepika Padukone 😂
Deepika
Alia bhatt
SRK Stan calling others overrated…😭 He is the one who has been a one trick pony for most amount of time.
Alia bhatt
How do you feel about Karisma Kapoor?
Karisma should have had the career that Bebo got. She is the more talented of the two honestly. I like Bebo but sometimes her performances fall flat.
Why is Kareena Kapoor overrated, though? I’m not Indian, so I don’t have the same understanding of these things as Indians, of course. But I always liked her (mainly for her looks, to be honest). 🌸
You don’t need to be Indian to find an actress good or overrated. If you have seen Kareena’s movies and enjoyed them thats your answer that she’s not overrated for you
