Pooja Bhatt looked lovely in her younger days. She was the sexy and fiersy version of Alia Bhatt in early 90's.
In my childhood thought Aashiqui was Pooja Bhatt's film. LOL.

Her last film was Zakhm which was great.

I think alcohol abuse and smoking ruined her beauty.

She was very outspoken and unconventional for her time. Just like Manisha. They couldn't handle it. So, Neither were as big as Madhuri

She was in the news more for her relationships and shocking quotes than her work. Plus she's admitted in recent years that she never had any passion for acting let alone being number 1 like her baby sister. I think she owns a basketball team now and seems more passionate about that.

Because she didn't have KJo and she did mostly B-grade horror movies on her dad Mahesh Bhatt's camp which didn't help her much. She had very good chemistry with Aamir though.

err...for those who r saying kjo didn't adopt her and so...

it's only he started working with almost every leading actress, back then he worked with only with his favs rani and kajol...then kareena became her candy

he has admitted several times that he was pissed off when all leading ladies at that time - Karishma, Urmila, Raveena and even Twinkle Khanna rejected tina's role in KKHH. so he never worked with any of them, however now things have changed for him.

Coming to Pooja, I think she was really good in Zakhm, but other than that I never saw fire in her to become successful, her father did try hard but that didn't work out I guess...

Kjo adopted Alia so things are different lolzzz

She is not that interested in films. She was her papa's muse so he directed her. She is far better actress than Alia.

Maybe, Dex. But you gotta admit that she sucked at acting. Alia Bhatt has a much better screen presence. Even as a petite damsel in Two States, she overshadowed Arjun.
