Tabu or Rani or Vidya.Who is the better actress? - Page 2

I voted for Rani because I feel she's the most versatile, but all of them are brilliant

Tabu >>> Rani & Vidya 

LMAO. Only on IF. This isn’t even a competition.

Tabu All the way. 

Rani is an all-rounder so she wins for me. 

I can't compare Tabu and Vidya as both are great actors. Rani is nowhere close to them.

Tabu anyday! She can do serious roles as well as comedy, the only thing she is not good at is dancing but she has created her own niche. Vidya did as well but she was bad in romantic comedies. Rani is good but she has not been a consistent performer, she falters in some movies i.e. Dil Bole Hadippa, Sawaariya, Hello Brother, Ta Ra Rum Pum etc. Rani only gets roles in her own home production now. 

I think Tabu is a great dancer.  I mean she’s no Madhuri but then who is?  Her Rang De dance from  Thakshak is full proof IMO.  

Tabu is boring and bland onscreen 

Rani M is the most versatile

As great as Tabu can be in serious roles, she can be surprisingly bad in out and out commercial films - just watch some of her ott films from the 90s. Even Vidya looks awkward in candyfloss/bubbly roles. Rani carried the bubbly/chirpy roles well (Hum Tum, BnB, Chalte Chalte) -- just can't imagine Tabu or Vidya doing them.

That said, Tabu in Haider is the greatest performance in Bollywood, period. Vidya in Kahaani and TDP are strong contenders as well. Nothing Rani has done comes close. But like FF said, Rani is an all-rounder - she can do comedy, tragedy, rom-coms to serious roles. She is a performer while Tabu and Vidya are just 'actresses'.

So I choose Rani even if she is not an actress of Vidya or tabu's caliber.

Oy.  I actually ended up watching the whole song again after a long time and I was remembering it differently. She did OK in some parts and was kind of awkward in other parts. I also used to think this was a great choreography. Thank you for ruining a childhood Bollywood memory for me 😏🤦🏽‍♀️😂
