Same facial expressions through whole movie


If you watch all of her movies, she has no facial expressions. Her face stays exactly the same through all emotions and all throughout her films. All she does is keeps her face looking pretty. She just wants to look good on camera. Not a good actress at all.

Wait until you see Trishna. She shows anguish well in a few heart wrenching scenes. She is developing nicely as an actor. She is only 28 and didn't start acting until she was about 22. (I used "actor" deliberately. I believe, though not sure, that women like to refer to themselves as actors. Doesn't matter, really, not a battle I'd want to take on.)

Ignorant mobs don't get to win.

"She is developing as an actor" - yes, that might be the problem. I think she is talented, but not extremely talented. She was good in Trishna, but not breathtaking, and a role like that could make a career, you know. She was fine in that movie, but not great, her character, while going through all kinds of terrible experiences, remains the same throughout the film, there is absolutely no development, just this charming girl with a warm smile, but not a tragic heroine she was supposed to be. (Perhaps it's partially the director's fault). Not enough weight, perhaps not enough presence. Perhaps, she will be perfect for smaller roles.
