Aish is nothing but a pretty face for most of the directors, even the top ones. She has expressive eyes , so the good directors can bring those emotions from her but when it comes to dialogues delivery...she is flat. just check out her kyon ho gaya na and dhoom 2 acts...gosh, it made me cringe

To me , she is just like Katrina..she can dance well and look pretty, but when it comes to actual dialogues ..one can see the flaws.
as for Russell, i haven't heard him much..so i don't know how typical is he..but sadly, he is right in saying one thing in bollywood , any one can become famous with pretty face (especially actresses)!
Aish and Kat are the best examples of that!

Ash has her strengths and weakness She is excellent in dramatic roles,tragic roles..or roles where she plays a stong graceful woman.She uses her eyes very well!No onecan replace her as Paro,Nandini,Guru's wife,Jodha etc
She is terrible at comedies and roles which requires her toplay regular heroine's role.Her very posture,walk,laugh everything looks artificial..it is also because,with her drop dead gorgeous looks..she seems so out of place.
If you take Hrithik Roshan and ask him to play Govinda's role in Partner..or any of Priyadarshan kind of comedies..it will fall flat,because he is so graceful and poised otherwise...a DemiGod!
Most actors have certain limitations,especially if they are either phisically very ordinary,or fabulously goodlooking.
The recent polls done by,Indian Express,Filmfare(taken in a dozen cities)..is proof that Ash's contemporaries like Rani ,Preity and Priyanka..just filled her place after her fallout with Salman.Their films with Srk made their careers..that too temporarily.But only Aishwariya survived and came back stronger with 'kajra re',Dhoom2,Guru,JA etc..
Others just faded...(Priyanka's last hit was Don)..you know Preity's and Rani's..

Good Gosh...MrsAckles, I really have an effect on you whenever I say that I dont like Aishwarya, huh? LOL I've never met someone who will go to such lengths to prove me wrong.
I hate to break it to you but no matter what you say, or how hard you try to defend her, I dont like her...never have, never will. So I think you're wasting your time trying to convince me by arguing with me. Its not gonna work.
And since you enjoy listing things, heres a list for you. Her failures. (As for her hits, they have either been multi-starrers or have had competent directors.)
Aur Pyar Hogaya
Jeans
Aa Ab Laut Chalen
Mela
Josh
Dhai Akshar Prem Ke
Hum Kisi Se Kum Nahi
Dil Ka Rishta
Kuch Na Kaho
Albela
Kyun Hogaya Na
Bride & Prejudice
Shabd
THe Mistress of Spices
Provoked
Umrao Jaan
And those are just the ones that I thought of off the top of my head...who knows how many more there are! Have a nice day. 😃

Here, we talk about performances and not successes. Do you think that Sridevi, Kajol, Rani and Madhuri didn't done bad films in their career ?
Ok you don't like Aishwarya and it's fine but her fans think that she's the best actress.
We have the right to defend her with the same strength as you love to offend her.

I am not directing this at you...but quoted it for de 'acting' part..... I believe that wat one defines as acting is very subjective.......a few examples to illustrate this(does not mean that I don't like this actors or actresses-i love all of them)...
A few of us may not like the way Rani acts-cries to much, has an image in our mind and . Sharukh-most of the time portrays that my love wud be the better and most romantic one(we can't ignore in most movies his luv interest is engaged if not married)..is there any substance in those roles but then don't we just love him....Katrina---is she only a pretty face or just too stiff......we may like them we may dislike them.......just to illustrate de meaning of acting flips from mind to mind......

Its not about being hip or not. Bollywood movies don't really cater to men (I'm not a man, but I know)........sometimes they don't even cater to women (you know the sensible ones). They are mostly candyfloss movies. Bollywood hardly dishes out slasher flicks like SAW series or thrillers or horror or sci-fi THAT IS OF ANY QUALITY. They call movies like "LV 2050" sci fi (yeah right!) and call horshit like tashan action......(yea sure).
Bollywood is all about melodramtic cheesy love stories. Most men don't like this, therefore they voice out their dislikes. What's so hip about not genuinely liking something and then giving your opinion about it? I don't see anything hip about it, all I see is honesty.
On topic, I don't think Aishwarya is a great actress. She has disappointed me many times and I'm convinced she CANNOT do a full-fledged masala role WITHOUT overacting.
HOWEVER......she is a pretty damn good actress when it comes to off-bit and subtle roles. Taal, HDDCS, raincoat, choker bali.....prove that.


I agree that bollywood makes mainly candy floss type of movies but what I was getting at is having an opinion about the whole industry just because they watched one pathetic movie. Ok these folks dont watch Bollywood movies because its cheezy - that is perfectly acceptable but the same young men throw out their opinions at the drop of the hat with so much conviction. How can someone form an opinion and generalize a whole industry by just watching one movie or in some cases parts of differnt movies ?
People like Russel Peters pass such comments and feel they are superior. This is just my opinion and it has always been a fashion to diss hindi movies - I thought that phase was over when we had genuinely good movies being made in bollywood but I guess not.

my dear friend i think u didnt read the topic its not u & me who said that Aish is the bad actress its
" Russel states Aishwarya as an example of a bad actress. Here it is, from the horses? mouth, ?Aishwarya Rai is the biggest example of bad acting. She has proved it time and again how it can do wonders. In Bollywood, people can become superstars just by having a pretty face.?"

now i think every pont is cleared now we defend our actress dont without bashing her i hope u understand

I knw..wht I meant was in these kind of posts members starts stating their opinions..n as far as I knw there are million ASH haters in this section who just love to bash her..
n I knw u wanted to defend her..but there are alot more members who love to attack her..
