Konkona is supremely talented and according to me, she can do all kinds of cinema with effortless ease. I find her beautiful in an unconventional way, but even if her looks are not accepted by mainstream audiences, wasn't her talent explosive enough to earn her a place in the hallowed portals of commercial mainstream cinema?
Or do you think she was clear enough from the beginning that she wanted a more offbeat careers and her choices reflected that?
She's brilliant in each and every role she does. Look at her nuanced act in Dolly, Kitty our who Chamakte Sitaare. Look at her in Wake Up Sid. Look at her stellar act in Ajeeb Dastans.
She's definitely the most brilliant performer we have after Tabu. But unlike Tabu, she seems to have confined herself to offbeat cinema more than commercial cinema.
Thoughts??
