Most actresses learn the ropes by trial and error. Not Kareena Kapoor.
Ever since she entered show business, Bebo came prepared to win hearts with her poise, performances and spontaneity to do bigger and better.
And we just love her knack for looking so dreamy ALL the time. Kareena has tried on a variety looks and styles over the years but one thing remains constant -- her hotness quotient.
Here's a look at some of the scorching avatars of Bollywood's numero uno star.
Heroine
Teaming a shocking pink sari with a brazen attitude and midriff overload, Kareena takes on the Chikni Chamelis and Badnaam Munnis with her upcoming item number, Halkat Jawani to portray an author-backed role in Madhur Bhandarkar's latest.

Bodyguard
While Salman Khan may harp about not doing him any favours in this blockbuster hit, Kareena obliges with no holds barred glamour in the Teri Meri Prem Kahani ditty.
Boy, can she rock a sari?

Tashan
The Size Zero seems like a distant memory compared to the curvaceous Bebo of today.
2008, however, was all about her skinny figure and skimpy wardrobe overkill in Yashraj's action drama, Tashan.

Kambakkht Ishq
Playing a smokin' hot supermodel in this Mars vs Venus rom-com opposite Akshay Kumar is no biggie for the star who loves to prance in high-end designer wear and sexy stilettos.

Golmaal Returns
Kareena takes the term 'sex kitten' to another level with her catty make-up and feline moves in the 'Meoww' number from Golmaal Returns.
Purrrfect, indeed.

3 Idiots
To break the monotony of a sweet 'n' simple girl-next-door character in Rajkumar Hirani's 3 Idiots, the actress slips into a bewitching chiffon sari, a prerequisite for any of Bollywood rain songs.

Asoka
It was her exotic, desi-goth Princess act in Santosh Sivan's Asoka that first revealed Kareena's sultry potential on silver screen.
One of her most distinct, unbeatable looks, this.

Billu
Even though it's only a special appearance, Le Kapoor leaves no stone unturned to ensure she's looking her dishy best for Billu's upbeat number Marjaani while shaking a leg with its producer, Shah Rukh Khan.

Kya Love Story Hai
In yet another hotness-personified cameo, Bebo steals the show from a film's actual stars -- Tusshar Kapoor and Ayesha Takia with her chic appearance and nimble dancing in It's Rocking.

Don: The Chase Begins Again
An unmistakably voluptuous Kareena lives up to the enormous challenge of offering a sizzling take on the seduction song, Yeh Mera Dil, made legendary by the inimitable Helen for Farhan Akhtar's Don remake.

Agent Vinod
Agent Vinod may have opened to mixed responses but no one had a word of complain for Kareena's popping cleavage or come-hither mischief in her saucy mujra rendition, Dil mera muft ka.

Kurbaan
You'd think a thriller revolving around terrorism would have no scope for intimacy?
Kareena's semi-bare act around beau Saif Ali Khan in a steamy love-making scene of Kurbaan burns any such notions.

Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham
It all started with Poo, of course.
As the smug, luscious head turner, Kareena plays her OTT fashionista with an air of inherent royalty, which is even more pronounced when she serenades the screen in a red-hot leather bustier and slit pants.

Ra.One
Red sure becomes Kareena.
The actress radiates a screen Goddess luminosity while embodying the pretty and provocative Chammak Challo in (and for a while as) Ra.One.
