Kapoor was initially scheduled to make her debut in Rakesh Roshan's Kaho Naa... Pyaar Hai (2000), opposite the director's son Hrithik Roshan. Several days into the filming, however, she abandoned the project and later explained that, "it was probably destined that I was not to be in the film. After all, it was a launch for his son. The whole focus was on the boy. Now I am glad I did not do the movie.She made her debut later that year in J.P. Dutta's war drama Refugee, alongside Abhishek Bachchan. Set during the Indo-Pakistani war of 1971, the film centers on a man known simply as "Refugee", who illegally transports civilians back and forth across the Indo-Pakistani border. Kapoor portrayed Naaz, a Bangladeshi girl who falls in love with Refugee while illegally migrating to Pakistan with her family. Her performance was acclaimed by critics; Taran Adarsh of Bollywood Hungama wrote that Kapoor "has a magnetic personality, which will make the viewer fall in love with her instantly. What surprises you is the ease with which she emotes the most difficult of scenes There is no denying the fact that she is a natural performer who is very camera friendly. On the experience of making her first film, she described it as "...tough ... [but] also a great learning experience. Refugee became the fifth highest-grossing film in India in 2000, and Kapoor's performance earned her the Filmfare Award for Best Female Debut

With superstar Kareena Kapoor announcing her desire to be a size zero, do we see more takers for that waif-like figure in India?Size continues to matter, everywhere – on the runway, in films and now even on television. Just when international fashion houses gave a thumbs down to super skinny, size zero models and termed Kate Moss and her ilk as 'unfashionable' (some even threatening to ban them), in urban India, you've got to blame Bebo for starting off a new fitness fad.Ever since the curvaceous Kareena Kapoor slimmed down to a 48 kg and announced her intentions of becoming a size zero, you have other Bollywood beauties heading that way and can expect young fans heading for a crash diet and rigorous exercise regime to be a size zero in a not-too-distant future.
Even the slim-and-sexy bombshell Priyanka Chopra, was reportedly asked to get in shape for a Karan Johar film. While Kareena's enviable figure comes from a dedicated power yoga and a soup-salad diet, do we see more such waif-like figures in the Indian glam biz?
Says actor Tanushree Dutta, "Even if models with size zero figures are banned internationally, it is a trend for sure. I'd personally never aspire for such a skeleton look as Indian women are genetically voluptuous. But, there are some people who can look good even as a size zero, so no harm there."
Fitness consultants also do not agree. Says fitness consultant Leena Mogre, "Kareena Kapoor has lost weight but she is definitely not a zero yet. Her chiselled face, good hair and shining eyes are signs of a well-toned body. Size zero is anorexic and it is definitely not the correct way to lose weight."And do our fashion gurus want that kind of figure? "Definitely not," says choreographer Prasad Bidappa, and goes on to say, "Even top designers like Rohit Bal and Hugo Boss sell their goods to plus-sized customers. So, in India, we have never wanted zero figures. For women, we want a size two or three for western wear and three and four for traditional wear. Size zero will give gaunt faces and nobody is aspiring to be a skeleton."
