My thoughts exactly. Six packs is a recent phenomenon in the last decade or two. Rajat is living the role of Akbar and he needs a physique that is closer to that of a pehelwan more than anything else and that he does.

Devki

imagine devika physique of a pehelwaan and acting like a dibba...any day i would prefer acting over looks!

I like facts and there is nothing that irritates me more than a widely held belief which is false. From the accounts of Jahangir, we have that Akbar was of medium height, inclining to be tall. A slightly dark complexion, broad chest, long arms and a fleshy mole on his nose.

Historians have concluded that his height was around 5'7 to 5'8. That is slightly tall by the standards of those times since people were shorter then. Same height as Salman or Shahruk and no one considers them short, they are average in height.

By the way, there will be a documentary on Humayun's Tomb on Discovery Channel, Monday 27 Jul 9 P.M. Please watch.

It is not modelling Donjas where looks alone matter. Acting needs much more. Neither are SRK nor Rajinikant nor Naseeruddin Shah great lookers. They all have something extra special that endears them on screen.

Remember Naseeruddin Shah in Jaane Tu ya jaane na - he made such an impression as a mere painting.

Now that is needed while performing before a rolling camera. RT has it in abundance. He can make his eyes voice everything talk and emote. After the leap he lent a slight hunch to his walk and made his voice more basal. With PS except for the plait she wears her hair in a bun. But there isn't the slightest difference to her advancing years.

There has never been that adoring expression in her eyes ever. The kind that would melt a stone when in love. Her eyes have never conveyed the kind of adoration and warmth and intimacy that Bhagyashree's did in MPK or RT's did in JA. That severly dented the love story. You could never 'feel' Jodha's love.

I agree that she looks very pretty and looks royal. She was way too beautiful in her wedding track and her early days in Agra.

If an actor of Salim's calibre had played Akbar then perhaps PS might have shined in comparison. But with RT...she is short by miles.

But yes. The twins track and the early grina days were those that she equalled him. That is why they stand out and touched our hearts. So have been a few episodes in between. But ovrrall something was missing badly. There was more of over confidence than 100%.

Agreed, that it is wrong to judge a person by physical attributes, but the fact that person's body makes up the image we have of him is also irrefutable. Being short or slig htly overweight are not negative points, billions of people are like that but in show business, that could be a problem.

We have seen Rajat shirtless a couple of times, he has shown definite improvement in physique but the pot belly is still there. That needs work.

As for Paridhi, I find her beautiful and as shown in the twin deaths and Laboni track, she is a very good actress.
