Post marriage, most actresses worry about their careers. And if the actress happens to be Kareena Kapoor, then the fears are heightened because Bebo married Saif at the peak of her career.

More than ever, she needs success. ‘Talaash’ is her first release after marriage and the film has got a fabulous initial response. But when the lead actor of a film is Aamir Khan, he takes away all the credit which Bebo is well aware of.

That’s reason enough for Kareena to hand over the charge of her next film to close buddy Karan Johar. Kareena Kapoor Khan is slated to shoot for Karan’s film in January. Earlier, she was to start work with Prakash Jha’s film ‘Satyagrah’ with Ajay Devgn and Amitabh Bachchan. But Kareena didn’t want to start her married actress career with a realistic film and chose her lucky charm Karan Johar instead as there are better chances for the film if the movie is made in Karan’s style.

Punit Malhotra directs the film which stars her co-star from ‘Ek Main Aur Ekk Tu’ – Imran Khan. Though that film did averagely at the box office, it is hoped that KJo’s film fares better.

2012 wasn’t great for Kareena either. Her other films — the much anticipated Heroine and her home production with Saif Agent Vinod — also fared badly at the box office. But then Bebo wasn’t married then. Now every release will be unfairly equated with her marriage. And failure could prove fatal. Hence Karan seems a safer bet so that her fans could get stuck to her like Fevicol.
