All praises about the Dimpled one’s early life as a model:
Well, this girl who straightforwardly transcended the “bubbly” look right from her wet-look from the “LIRIL COMMERCIAL” straight into the extremely choosy director Mani Ratnam’s heart (mm.. very few have been capable of melting this skilled director).
Other commercials, she has been casted are : Pepsi(my favorite too..NOTE : Not about the Pesticide funda.. but, when I am asked amidst Pepsi/Coke/Thums-up.. Pepsi wins hands down ),Perk(naughty little chuckle of hers just whooped away the gloom from my heart)and Scooty Pep.
In one of the old news papers, she daringly alleged “I am no face, but a body”.(Apparently, though I am a die hard fan of yours, I think it is the other way round Preity dear).
However, a volley of FAQs to be mugged and answered about Preity:
What kind of roles are your unbiased opinions to view Preity in?
Coming to think of it, I have seen her in different roles right from a sorrow-get-mother(chori chori chupke chupke) to a social outcast(kya kehna). I would like to see her as :
A happy girl who is spoilt by her rich dad.
A feminist representing a group of women against corruption.
A clumsy girl who is attached with an error at etiquette, a social blunder.
A girl who finds happiness with whatever she has.
An NRI trying to advance at guys with different hair styles :)
A journalist who needs to write just about gossiping and slurping :)
Alice in Wonderland :) et al.
Is she a versatile actress?
Not necessarily. She can manage any work request in her basket. But, she does the best which is apt for her personality.
What according to you is her apt personality?
I would say, this bubbly little spark can fade away the darkness and fill it with some pink lights that is bright enough with her vivacity and “Happy go lucky nature”.
Her best compatible on-screen performer-actor? Quotably, Shah Rukh Khan.
Her best compatible off-screen performer-actor? Aamir Khan :) (Let the spicy news be eh)
Can she pass off as a fashion designer, if not for her career at Bollywood?
I don’t think so. But, the way she endeavors in different hair styles, may be a hair stylist or a hair costume designer original by PREITY :)
Can she be rated as a sex symbol?
Keeping in mind, today’s actresses who are just fighting their ways out by wearing clothes as minimal as possible to be a sex symbol, I do not think Preity even needs to resort to this cheap trick, because she is already a “SUCCESSFUL ACTRESS”.
How good are her acting skills?
She is one actress in Bollywood who shows up all facets of emotions right in her eyeseven before she makes a move. Her voice is tuned to perfection altering away the minimal hair on the voice box to correctly portray “happiness” or “sadness”. A cheerful actress who bags the right opportunity at the right time.
Ex : Kal Ho Na Ho(from the Yash group Banner) was first offered to Miss.Kareena and she denied, but later came to Preity’s bags : ). Without any amount of least little bit of ego(impractical ego that comes sometimes to some of us).She happily accepted the role and executed the character of Naina in an UNPARALLEL way. HIGHLIGHTED : “No Bollywood actress can even come close to Preity to be Naina Catherine Kapoor!!!”
Yes, there you go, she made the right choice : ) And I made the right choice of choosing her my favo whooping one amongst the top 10 of my favorites : )
How about you guys???
