She's probably one of the rare leading ladies to have played a married woman in as many as 11 out of the 50 odd films that she has done.

She plays a wife once again, in her new film Ki & Ka -- this time, to Arjun Kapoor.

Here's taking a look at Kareena's married avatar in the movies.


Gabbar Is Back
(2015)

Akshay Kumar's wife

Kareena played a cameo as Akshay's wife in Gabbar Is Back, who gets killed in a tragic building collapse.

 

Ra. One (2011)
Shah Rukh Khan's wife

Before getting into the Chammak Challo act, Kareena Kapoor played wife to Shah Rukh Khan's nerdy video game programmer character named Shekhar.

They shared some good chemistry before Shekhar got bumped off, and his lookalike -- a robot named G.One -- took his place.

 

Kurbaan (2009)
Saif Ali Khan's wife

Kareena and her real-life beau Saif Ali Khan got together in Kurbaan, which seemed like the perfect love story at first.

It turned out to be a tale of deceit, as Saif's character is a terrorist.

Like in Ra.One, there was no happy ending once again, and Saif's character gets killed.

Main Aurr Mrs Khanna (2009)
Salman Khan's wife

A love triangle with Salman, Sohail and Kareena, Main Aur Mrs Khanna really didn't have much romance.

In the end, however, all was fine in the Khanna world.

Golmaal Returns (2008)
Ajay Devgn's wife

Kareena stepped in as Ajay Devgn's wife in Rohit Shetty's hilarious film.

A die-hard Ekta Kapoor fan, Kareena was a fan of the saas-bahu serials, who knew more about the lives of the characters in the soaps rather than the ones outside the television.

Omkara (2006)
Ajay Devgn's wife

Kareena played wife to Ajay Devgn in Omkara as well, this time, sharing a very different relationship.

Vishal Bhardwaj's beautiful take on Othello saw a beautiful love between the lead pair, which soon turned into mistrust and death.

 

Dosti: Friends Forever (2005)
Aman Verma's wife

One of Kareena's lesser known films -- Dosti: Friends Forever -- was more about the friendship between Akshay Kumar and Bobby Deol than the women they serenaded (Kareena Kapoor and Lara Dutta).

But Kareena wasn't even married to Akshay -- she was forcibly made to marry Aman Verma.

Bewafaa (2005)
Anil Kapoor's wife

Yet another film where Kareena was married off to someone else, even though she was in love with Akshay!

Fate interrupted Akshay and Kareena's love story in the film, and she had to marry Anil Kapoor.


Aitraaz
 (2004)
Akshay Kumar's wife

Kareena did play Akshay Kumar's wife right at the beginning of her career in Abbas-Mustan's romantic thriller Aitraaz.

As someone who fought for her husband in the court of law, Kareena gave a powerhouse performance. Priyanka Chopra gave a well-reviewed performance as well.


Ajnabee
 (2001)
Bobby Deol's wife

Akshay and Kareena were cast in Ajnabee as well but they were not married here. Kareena was married to Bobby Deol, while Akshay comes to them with an 'indecent proposal.'

Abbas-Mustan added their twists and turns to the story, and came out with a good thriller.

Asoka (2001)
Shah Rukh Khan's wife

Right at the start of her career, Kareena played Shah Rukh's wife in the historical film Asoka. The actress looked radiant as Princess Kaurwaki.
