Heroine (Hindi pronunciation: [ˈɦiːɾoːɪn]) is a 2012 Indian Hindi-language drama film written, directed, and co-produced by Madhur Bhandarkar. The film stars Kareena Kapoor Khan as Mahi Arora, a once-successful film actress whose career is on the decline, alongside Arjun Rampal and Randeep Hooda in supporting roles.
Heroine was released on 21 September 2012 across 2000 screens, coinciding with Kapoor's 32nd birthday. Despite mixed-to-positive reviews from critics, Kapoor's performance received widespread critical acclaim, and is considered to be one of her best performances. Kapoor received a Best Actress nomination at the 58th Filmfare Awards for her performance in the film.
