ash definitely has achieved quite a lot, so it's not fair to undermine her achievements...
i think she is a good actress... of course, people's views would vary... she obviously can act and has won a lot of critical acclaim as well... she has had a great inning and is counted among the top actresses of our times... like many other actors, she also needs a good director to get the best from her... :)
she is happily married now, has a loving hubby and doting in-laws... she seems quite content to me... normally, the feeling of content comes with achievement... :) i'm sure, from ash's point of view, she has achieved it all... and despite what others say, she is much more known in the international circles than some of the other mainstream bollywood actresses.. it's a fact...!!
rani and preity also have enjoyed their share of success... in the world of glamour, nothing is temporary... there was an era of madhuri, and before that sridevi... so just because madhuri came and sri retired, does that undermine sri's accomplishments...? no...!! people will come and people will go, but ash will always be remembered.... so will rani, preity and kareena...
i don't understand why there is a need to undermine someone else's achievements to highlight your own favourite... that concept never made sense to me....
kareena has some great roles, so has priyanka, and so has rani, preity, ash and kajol...
achievement is not only measured by success in bollywood... maybe guzarish will be her last big movie, i can't say... that hardly matters... she has already enjoyed great innings in bollywood and has made a place for herself... :)
