Kareena Kapoor

In August 2007, Kapoor replaced actress Soha Ali Khan as spokesperson for the clothing chain Globus in a two-year contract. Vinay Nadkarni (CEO of Globus Stores) explained that to move from a multi-brand to a single-brand strategy for its stores, the clothing chain decided to appoint a different spokesperson for its new venture. On being appointed by Globus, Kapoor commented "I am delighted to be the face of Globus I look forward to spreading this new language of fashion across the nation". Since then, the brand had reported a 75-percent increase in sales.<br /><br /> Several months later Kapoor announced that she would be launching her own line of clothing, becoming the first Indian actress to do so: "I will be launching my exclusive line of clothes soon and I am quite sure people will like it. My clothing line is very reflective of my personal sense of style and will have my label on it. Just like I am pretty casual about my dressing, my line will also consist of an extremely wearable yet stylish collection. I am taking out this line in association with Globus, a brand that I am also the ambassadress for". She further stated that she would also be involved in the planning and design processes of the clothing. Her clothing line debuted several months later in stores across India, and was well received by the public. Following the end of her contract with Globus, Kapoor expressed a desire to work with a design house to release her clothing line internationally; she later explained that those plans were on hold due to prior commitments.
