I don't think its fair to have Rani, Preity and Aishwarya in this list because they were newcomers at that time, their prime was the 2000s.

So barring them I'd say:

Madhuri

Urmila

Tabu

Karishma

Kajol/Juhi

Raveena

Sonali

Twinkle

1) Madhuri (90s belonged to her) / Sridevi (Can't ignore her impressive follow-up to 80s success)⭐️

2) Kajol (almost on par with Mads, had a solid run in the 90s and even later decades)👏

3) Urmila (Fantastic, versatile, Criminally underrated)

4) Tabu / Manisha (Solid performers) 😊

5) Mahima (Not on your list, but deserves a mention for her breakthrough run in late 90s)smiley20

6) Karisma / Raveena / Sonali (Good, but almost interchangeable) smiley36

7) Juhi (almost overrated during the 90s, due to her bubbly image)smiley24

8) Shilpa / Mamta
(Weak performers, but deserve a mention nonetheless)smiley12

9) Twinkle
(Bad)🐷

Divya Bharti was talented, but she was too young and her best was yet to come. smiley38
Can't rank her, but she deserves at least an honorable mention.🤗

I am keeping Rani, Preity and Aishwarya out of the 90s bracket because they rose to prominence towards the end of the 90s and their best came in 2000s.😃

Wow thanks for this amazing, amazing summary😃


But just have to say...Urmila and Tabu are better actresses than Madhuri and Kajol IMO

You're welcome.😃



I partly agree, and partly disagree with you Minty.

Because for me, a perfect BW actress would be who could do all types of roles (glamour, offbeat, dance etc) , especially when we take 90s into consideration.

Mads got an upper hand because of her dancing skills which was almost a perquisite for actresses in the 90s. She acted well, did versatile roles and her Madhubala-like features also helped her.

Kajol lacked glamour, had the most unconventional looks but it worked in her favor because the audiences connected with her. She acted decently. DDLJ/KKHH factor also contributed A LOT to her success. Till today I believe that, no one can do emotional/crying scenes like her.

Tabu took a while in founding her niche in offbeat roles. She also failed in dance and glamour roles, which is not a bad thing, but considering her 90s competition, I have to take that into account.

Urmila is a sad story because she actually could do all kind of roles. Not sure why Bollywood ignored her after the 90s. Lack of better opportunities, internal politics... who knows what happened?

Along with all this, when we take Filmography, BO success, fan-following, craze and overall 90s hype into consideration, then Mads and Kajol seem to be quite ahead of Tabu & Urmila.
