Sunil Shetty Biography

Cover of Mohra An actor who completely depends on his director for his performance, Sunil Shetty could have done better in business boardrooms, but anyway, made his B-Town journey with the completely inconsequential films like Balwan , Gaddar or Prithvi . His beefcake physique and square jawed face made him a director's ideal choice for an action hero, but his expressionless face gave away the ham actor in him. Yet nothing teaches better than experience. So after a long barren spell at the box office when around 21 out of his 28 films flopped miserably, Shetty finally saved his dwindling career with films like Mohra and Border. Then the resounding success of Priyadarshan 's Hera Pheri gave his career a new lease of life while Refugee and Jungle has got him on cloud nine. One of the promising stars to have hit the silver screen in the last decade Sunil Shetty stays clear of petty politics of the tinsel world and maintains a low profile.

Image via Wikipedia Aishwarya had become the darling of India appeared in popular Bollywood films Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam in 1999, Taal 1999 and Mohabbatein in 2000. Particularly interesting is how the media treated her in her early bollywood days. She was tempestuous, sexy and drop-dead gorgeous but she wasn’t aptly praised for her acting skills. For example, the Tribune India has a little paragraph about her activities, published on 28th of November 1999: Aishwarya Rai has oodles of sex appeal. Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam and Taal or the long line of filmmakers queuing outside her door is ample proof of this. It seems even the Southie directors are under her spell! This despite her forays into Mani Ratnam’s Iruvar and Ashok Amritraj’s Jeans being damp squibs. Ash is starring in a Telugu film Raavoya Chandamama , a remake of Mann (which was a remake of An Affair to Remember ) starring Nagarjuna and Anjana Jhaveri. So where does Ash fit in? In Rani’s sexy one song appearance for a fat ...
