Welcome Cherry to the thread.
The results are out #SexyList2013
#SexyList2013 Women TOP SIX
6: Sanaya Irani (In Top 10 for first time)
5: Sonam Kapoor
4: Deepika Padukone (same as last year)
We all tried our best this time, Sanaya is in a better rank then last year. Next year we will vote more and hopefully have many more RR fans to support 😊 .
If we go the site where auditions are posted, there are many more actresses auditioning for Laila, some being seductive, others sweet, so a lot depends on how the character is conceived by writers and how it is interpreted by different artists. The fact they are auditioning so many actors, Laila seems to be quite an important character.
There is an audition for the character of Rudra's father and uncle too (going by the dialogues). I had the same thought about the sweet fiance of Paro, was he killed by Rudra? If so, why? Guess, having questions is good.
Agree Diya trying hard to keep expectations low, but tough after seeing such interesting array of characters and yes, I too hope that this time they a story in place already.
After reading that asjadnazir's replies on twitter, I am least bothered about this poll, to be honest ... this was pretty obviously doctored. All the sites worth their name, and some who are NOT worth their name, are onto the poll bandwagon to get hits for their sites ... the polls become meaningless after a while. Good to see Sanaya in the top 10 ... but like someone has mentioned, seeing her as the ONLY telly actress in the People's magazine list means more ... because that list was not doctored, but decided by a jury.
More actresses for Laila? This must be a pretty important character then, you're right. I think this must be the one Barkha was approached for, since she is not doing it, they are auditioning others ... or they were ... they must have finalised by now.
I'm getting very impatient now for the show to begin ... U, I need a good storyline more than anything else to grip me ... the inspiration being Othello is a good start, let's see what more they have in their kitty. I liked Omkara very much, it was a superb adaptation to the Indian context, with a TV show, they can actually stretch out the story and flesh out the characters even more, and make them really interesting.
I liked a reply by Neelu Kohli about acting in television ... In a television show we get to explore our acting talent through the shades of your character you are portraying but that is not the same in movies. In movies you are restricted to just one shade that you have to portray.
An interesting viewpoint, and one I haven't read before ... she is right, with the longer duration of a TV show, there is much more time to explore nuances in the characters, if done well. So let's see what Nautanki comes up with.
