No! Anushka is far from a beauty and doesn't have the grace/poise needed. And Sonam toh don't get me started, horrible actress and even worse dancer. Also zero grace and looks like a joker.

Deepika did well in the grace part and looked stunning but her performance was totally flat, she was so wooden in the film. It was like watching a Robot/ I think she was focussing so much on trying to be this graceful/ dignified princess that no attention was paid to the acting part. And the part was very poorly written...one dimensional and very sketchy. Easily SLB's worst written female character.
Always felt this from the start but after ADHM I am 100% sure that Ash would have been the best fit by far. Despite the underwritten, limited part in ADHM she made a stunning mark, she was sensational as Saba. So I think she would have salvaged this even though poorly written part of Mastani. Plus, she is an exceptional dancer.. would have killed it and done better.

I think actresses like Sonam or Katrina would have looked the part but acting... 🤣👎🏼 Katrina is a good dancer though. Sonam - no.
Anushka, Kangana Sonakshi would have acted well as Mastani but somehow I just can't picture them as Mastani. They don't look 'out of the world' beautiful or mystical. Sonakshi is a good dancer but I'm not sure if she's that graceful. Anushka, as a dancer, is okay... Kangana can't dance. 👎🏼

Kareena, Karishma, Urmila, Aishwarya, Madhuri, Rekha, Sri Devi - they'd have been amazing as Mastani. Vidya Balan has that 'old world' charm about her, she would have enacted the role well too... but her weight & her dance. 😵

In the current generation... apart from Deepika & Priyanka Chopra (yes I know she played Kashi but I think she couldve pulled off Mastani too), I can't see anyone really pulling off Mastani.

What about Tamanah? I haven't seen much of her work but she is super fair, sort of fits the Mastani 'look'. I know she's been in the south movies for more than a decade but does she dance well too? Someone shed some light...

Anushka might look the part coz of her fair skin but her body language is more of a tomboy. She cannot get the nazakat required of a dancer. And Sonam neither looks the part nor can act or dance.

Aab Dipla hogayi toh hogayi Mastani.

How good does Ileana dances?? She is a good actress and when properly groomed looks out of the world beautiful too.

Actually I feel even Rani mukherjee could pull it off it this was offered in her prime... she is a great dancer, has that nazakat, she acts well & she can look really stunning too if people work on her...

Of Course Ram Charan is a better dancer his cousin Allu Arjun is best dancer and his father Chiranjeevi is the bestest dancer of all. In Tollywood, most of the guys are super dancers. I gave the Example of Tamanna's dance to be compared with BW heroines, not tollywood heros.

She's alright I think, just like most BW heroines, didn't find it extra ordinary. Besides, I couldn't pay much attention to her in the video. 😛😆

NOPE.
Deepika is a better actor, dancer and looks far better than both of them. So unfortunately no. 😆
