We can surely trust Kareena to dish out another superb performance.

8. Even though the movie ' Shaandaar Click to look into! >> Read More... ' failed to receive good reviews, but it garnered some sizzle because of the chemistry between Shahid Kapoor and Alia Bhatt. It will be interesting to see them share screen space again in ‘Udta Punjab.’
