1.Kareena Kapoor Khan: The richest among Kapoors
Today, Kareena Kapoor Khan needs no introduction. Randhir Kapoor and Babita Shivdasani Kapoor's younger daughter is currently among the top female leads in Bollywood, and also the richest Kapoor, among cousins Ranbir Kapoor and elder sister Karisma Kapoor. However, Kareena had earned this living with her hard work. She has come a long way since she couldn't afford school fees as well.
2.Kareena Kapoor Khan's flop Bollywood debut
Kareena made her debut in 2000 with the film Refugee opposite Abhishek Bachchan. While the film didn’t do very well at the box office, critics immediately noticed her potential and predicted she’d become a big star—and they were right.
3.Kareena Kapoor Khan's rise to stardom
Though her debut film tanked, Kareena became a star over the years. She impressed audiences and critics with her performances in films like Asoka, Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham, Chameli, Mujhse Dosti Karoge!, Fida, Main Prem Ki Diwani Hoon, Chup Chup Ke, Dev, Omkara, Jab We Met, Bodyguard, 3 Idiots, Golmaal 3, Heroine, Udta Punjab, Veere Di Wedding, Crew, and Good Newwz.
4.When Kareena Kapoor's parents couldn't afford to pay her school fees
Though Kareena hails from the famous Kapoor film family, Kareena didn’t grow up with great wealth. Her father, Randhir Kapoor, had a brief and not very successful acting career. Reportedly, at one point, he couldn’t even afford to pay school fees for Kareena and her sister Karisma. During those tough times, the two sisters travelled by local buses and trains.
In a 2014 interview with Rediff, Randhir Kapoor said, “I wish I were young today. Actors today earn a lot. We had to work very hard to earn money. We couldn’t afford to do just one film a year—we had to keep working to make ends meet.” Perhaps these early struggles are what kept Kareena grounded, despite her stardom.
5.Kareena Kapoor turned royal after marrying Saif Ali Khan
Kareena married actor Saif Ali Khan on October 16, 2012, at the Pataudi Palace in a grand wedding. This was Saif’s second marriage after divorcing Amrita Singh, but it was Kareena’s first. The couple has two sons—Taimur Ali Khan and Jehangir Ali Khan. As far as her net worth is concerned, reports estimate Kareena Kapoor Khan’s net worth to be around Rs 500 crore.
Kareena reportedly charges Rs 10 to 12 crore per film. Alongside acting, she endorses several brands and is said to charge around Rs 5 crore per endorsement. Even for appearing on reality TV shows, she commands a huge fee—she reportedly earned Rs 3 crore for judging Dance India Dance.
