😉 I love both actresses. But some have said both these performances and movies are overrated. Please share your thoughts. Should be an interesting discussion. 😊

Neither is Kahaani the movie or Vidya's performance in it overrated.

Both were exceptional. I rate Kahani as the best thriller I have seen from BW.

PC was great as Mary Kom but the movie was a below average affair. Too long, unnecessary details like the romantic angle and way too much patriotic element involved. That is not how you make a biopic. It depicts the real life story, not made to suit you agenda bullshit.

Vidya and Kahaani over PC and Mary Kom anyday!! I think PC as Jhilmil would be a better comparison... If so, then BOTH for me, maybe a little more for Jhilmil, cos she made me cry and feel for her.. Vidya has good acting in Kahaani as well, but I couldnt relate to her..

Jhimil is clearly better than Kahaani or Mary Kom.
Both actresses are icons. I love both their work. 😊

Mary Kom had a lot of potential. SLB ruined it. 😡

I wouldn't say clearly better. Kareena in Talaash, PC in Barfi and Vidya in Kahaani were all fabulous performances. Rani too though her role was shorter. You can pick anyone over the other (it would be by a whisker though) but all are right about the same for me.

Acting of the highest order. No stupid songs, over the top dramatic moments or dialogues etc.; which is what we used to seeing in BW. Just putting a character in a situations and the letting it blossom out on screen.

The funny thing is that all of the these three movies came out in 2012. What a year that was for movies.

*Spoilers*
The climax of Kahaani where Vidya pull out the water bag, stabs the guy in the foot and then proceeds to shoot his brains out, was amazingly shot and acted in. I had goosebumps watching and nearly fell off my chair. Vidya has totally me believing that he was a pregnant woman up to that point and then that she was well capable of pulling off a murder.👏👏

Sad we don't have good movies like this much anymore. Anuskha did great with NH10. 2015 could
get better. Let's see. 😊
