I have seen some people praise SONALI BENDRE on this forum. 😆 But, I wonder why she gets so much appreciation. Her career was nothing pathbreaking. In fact, she was one of the weakest 90's heroines and actresses like Madhuri, Manisha, Raveena, Juhi, etc. were the league that noone could beat. I find SONALI a tad better than MAMTA Kalkurni, but that is not saying much. She may have come with all the KHANS, but are her roles remembered? Her only decent film was probably HSSH and that is a multi-starrer. Good thing she retired when she did. Her last good role came in a Marathi film called Anaahat. I think she got an award for that. What was so special about SONALI BENDRE? Please share your thoughts. 😉

justt an okay actress nothing much, but she wasn't annoying offscreen as today's actresses, that's a big plus for her

sonali was pretty but she seemed weak in dancing and acting.
In the 90's I was a huge fan of Madhuri and Kajol
For some reason, I never liked Raveena. She was good but never was a fan of hers

Shonali was really beautiful...liked her in "Hum Saath Saath Hain" & in "Sarfarosh" too...

Her song "Jo haal dil ka" from "Sarfarosh" was my fav once...she was drop dead gorgeous in that song.

isn't it Sonali? lol

she was a nice, simple actress. Not too loud, but yeah, she didn't get earthshattering roles
I think what worked with her well was she was easy on the eyes.. by that don't mean hot or sexy or whatever, just pleasant.. some sort of a universal face

Sonali is BEAUTIFUL 😍. She always looked so poised and graceful onscreen.She had decent acting skills too and could actually dance(Compare her to todays Kat,Sonam,Asin and u will understand) .But I think her potential was never properly utilised.Yeah there was Madhuri,Juhi,Manisha ruling the 90s and unfortunately Sonali didnt get much attention.I loved her in HSSH,Dupicate,Zakhm,Sarfarosh and many more movies.She has an endearing offscreen personality and never annoys you.Elegance personified in short 😳
