I fail to see any impact she actually created .. she is relatively unknown there (HW celebs may ofcourse know her - but she failed to create an impact on the audience there).
She would have created more of a stir had she not lost out in BW movies.
Her being beautiful definitely worked to her advantage inspite of being dropped though (IDK what the situation would have been, had she been average looking).. I remember she was paid a lot for that one Kajra re song
She was filming for her first Hollywood film when the Time magazine cover happened.
She became the most famous and well-known actor from her generation all over the world, that is some impact for someone who people thought would just disappear. Won all these laurels and achievements, and became a name to reckon with. Came back with a bang in Bollywood too.
Creating a bigger impact had she only remained in Bollywood - I dont agree, but it's a subjective opinion, so it's ok.
Had she been average looking, she wouldn't have been in the film industry to begin with. Not unless she was born in some film family.
