LOL Sonia.....well I wouldn't personally slot myself in either of those two categories.....I don't hate Deepika......but I just find her quite bland for the most part.....in all her other movies....Maybe she was better in LAK like everyone is saying....but the few dialogue promos I saw frankly didn't impress me that much....it's like you said...she's passable at best....I don't see a wow factor to her acting skills.

Most newbies aren't perfect actors off the bat ofcourse.....so I'm not expecting that either.....but everyone starts off with some kind of spark....some natural thing somehow.....I mean dude....Socha na tha was Ayesha Takia's first movie and in that itself she was a million times better than Deepika has managed after doing THREE movies so far......LOL

I like Sonam....but I'm not blind about her either to say she's a great actress.....no, I don't think she can really act much at this point either....but she's got a spontaneous infectiousness to her personality that gives her a spark.......



Lol Anu you dont have to justify your choices, for the most part I agree with your reasoning. About the natural kind of spark, I dunno if its natural but Deepika has great screen-presence? Haha lol actually you're right not much of a spark is there! 😆 But I agree Ayesha Takia was brilliant in Socha Na Tha... Definately a class above from Deepika!

However that aside, I don't think there's much of a natural spark to Sonam Kapoor either! She looks really natural but acting-wise I've yet to see it. The thing Sonam Kapoor has got going on for her, in my opinion, is that she seems to have tons of potential to play a wide array of characters... coz you just can't pin her down, you know? She can play a bubbly character, a quiet character, a shy character, a gregarious character... So that way I see a lot of potential in her... This is good, coz even if her acting doesnt match up to the required level, she will never get boring as an actress! 😊But so far yeah, neither Deepika or Sonam have managed to completely impress me....

BTW the dialogue promos dont show her best scenes (which are in the climax) so I guess maybe thats why you weren't impressed.

I wasn't trying to justify my choices, Sonia......you made mention of there being only two categories of opinions about Deepika and I just put forth mine....About the natural kind of spark, I dunno if its natural but Deepika has great screen-presence? Well I don't think she has great screen presence....she is a pretty girl, but cuz she lacks a spontaneity to her screen presence, I find her to be bland.Haha lol actually you're right not much of a spark is there! 😆 But I agree Ayesha Takia was brilliant in Socha Na Tha... Definately a class above from Deepika!

This is good, coz even if her acting doesnt match up to the required level, she will never get boring as an actress! 😊I'm not quite sure what you're trying to say about Sonam here but if you read my earlier post again, I clearly said that I don't consider her to be a good actress at the moment....her dialogue delivery is quite terrible....but she DOES have the natural spark...SHE has screen presence now....and it is more than obvious even in a pretentious piece of work like Saawariya.....I actually think that until she opens her mouth and mumbles out her lines at hyper speed, she's actually doing great😆😆.....Sonam's eyes speak volumes many times unlike Deepika's But so far yeah, neither Deepika or Sonam have managed to completely impress me....As actresses, they both have a long way to go....but I will maintain that Sonam has better screen presence.

BTW the dialogue promos dont show her best scenes (which are in the climax) so I guess maybe thats why you weren't impressed. Oh ok....guess I'll watch and decide then.

@ Anu; Mhmm, it looks kind of "wack" if I can say LOL
Okay I don't know but AB's not impressive any more =(
He's done soooo many films and hands down he's amazing but now I think he should take a break and pick some good films even though he wants to do many different roles.. I think it's beginning to look silly :S I don't know if that's the right word but yeah..

The movie will be good for time-pass I guess.. :P

And will watch the VM now! =D

Anu: Fair enough. 😊 I don't view it the same way as you, coz I think both Deepika and Sonam have different (but equal) strengths acting-wise, but both of them lack the spark as of now. 😕

It was beautiful from beginning to end.. Shyam seems soo sweet.

This song really suits this couple! Brilliant work, Jai! I totally loved it.. don't know about their other scenes but the ones you chose to go with the flow of the song were really nice. Your VMs are always shooooo pleasant to watch! I love their flow and transitions from one scene to the next.. you are amazing. I hope you know it ;)

No actress in the current crop of newbies has the spark of icons like Kajol and Madhuri obviously....I thought Ayesha Takia was a very promising newcomer but sadly she has retired after marriage now :S LOL

Deepika's eyes just always have this far off dead sort of look to them.....I can't describe it clearly....maybe Imtiaz managed to extract some good stuff from her in LAK....but I'm basing this assessment on what I've seen in her movies so far.....she just can't do bubbly....spontaneous....it doesn't look natural.

I guess to each his own....but in my opinion, Sonam deffo has the spark....even in a 20 min miniscule role in Delhi6, that spark shows.....the girl has pizzazz.....Deepika is more elegant no doubt....but I rate spontaneity higher....and she lacks that.....Sonam on the other hand, has loads of spontaneity...I think this is a very important characteristic for anyone to be a good actor/actress.....so that characteristic should help Sonam in the long run.

I think this is what is cinematic screen presence....

Now this right here ...this is a charming smile, no doubt.....but I don't see much depth :S

Rest I'll watch LAK and decide I guess.....lol
