Ganga Jamuna Sarasvati- Undrrperformer

From GJS onwards Amitabh faced a bad time with constant flops except Aaj ka Arjun and Hum.

The second actor I would like to present didn't give that many hits as he gave memorable films one after another. Let's see the filmography of Naseeruddin Shah between 1975–87 before he moved to commercial cinema completely.

Out of the 44 films he did during 1975–87 22 won National Awards, means every second film won a National award.

Between 1975–87 he has done films like

Nishant

Manthan

Godhuli

Bhavai

Junoon

Bhumika

Aakrosh

Hum Paanch

Albert Pinto ko Gussa Kyon Aata hai

Chakra

Bezubaan

Bazaar

Mandi

Woh 7 Din

Masoom

Ardh Satya

Sparsh

Paar

Mohun Joshi Haazir ho

Holi

Jaane bhi do Yaaro

Trikaal

Ghulami

Khamosh

Genesis

Pestonjee

Libaas

Ijaazat

Such a great filmography is something to marvel at. This was before he turned into commercial cinema. He did Karma, Tridev Jalwa, Hero Hiralal, Mohra and Sarfarosh etc but his art house supremacy was at another level.

Which actress or actor has an incredible past?

 Charlize Theron

Charlize Theron grew up on her parents' farm in Benoni, near Johannesburg, South Africa. Her name is of French origin and was spelled Theron.

In 1991, Charlize was 15 years old.

Charlize Theron isn't afraid to talk about her difficult childhood. While promoting her latest film, "Bombshell," the 44-year-old Oscar-winning actress opened up about a traumatic event from her past: her mother, Gerda, shot and killed her father, Charles, when she was 15 in South Africa. Her father was an alcoholic and often violent at home.

What are the challenges faced by actresses in Bollywood who are labeled with a "non-glamorous" image, and how do they navigate their careers?

 Meet Smita Patil

One of the finest actresses of Indian cinema, but never got the same recognition in commercial cinema because of her unconventional looks and lack of glamour. Problem arose when it started affecting her work in art films as well.

Smita was replaced by Shabana Azmi from the National Award winning film Sparsh because the producers wanted a more saleable face to sell the film to distributors at good price. Shabana Azmi was more popular commercially with films like Amar Akbar Anthony, Fakira and Parvarish etc. This exclusion hurt Smita so badly that she decided to work in commercial cinema and prove her commercial viability. She signed films like Shakti, Namak Halal, Chatpati, Badle ki Aag etc. Problem was that she couldn't adjust to the commercial style of filmmaking. She was so disturbed by the picturization of Aaj Rapat Jaaye from Namak Halaal that she was in tears saying “I didn't came to films to do this”. Otherwise also her performance and dance in films like Badle ki Aag was heavily criticized and she said that she can't dance with latke jhatke and thumkas as Reena Roy can.

Shabana Azmi herself faced the same problem. She came with a bang in the industry winning a National award but she was very awkward working in commercial films. During Fakira, she had to do a romantic scene with Shashi Kapoor and she couldn't do the typical romantic heroine role, she was also in tears. Also she remembers she was badly scolded by the dance master during the shooting of Parvarish because she was dancing alongside Neetu Singh who was trained in Bollywood style dancing.

Many actresses who were labelled with non glamorous image tried to change their image end up losing their credibility as a performer because more often than not they are not accepted in glamorous roles by the audience.

Has any Bollywood actress consistently delivered box office hits like the male superstars, and why or why not?

 There are many such actresses who have delivered consistent hits (sometimes more than their male counterparts).

Hema Malini gave 13 hits between 1974–75. This includes 1 All Time Blockbuster, 1 Blockbuster, 3 Superhits. In 1974 Hema Malini delivered the 3rd highest grosser (Dost), 4th highest grosser (Prem Nagar), 6th highest grosser (Amir Garib), 8th highest grosser (Patthar aur Payal), 10th highest grosser (Haath ki Safai), 16th Highest grosser (Kasauti) and an average grosser (Dulhan)

Even Bezubaan (1.75 crores) was critically acclaimed.

In 1986, The highest grosser was Karma with Sridevi, 2nd highest grosser was Aakhiri Rasta with Sridevi, 3rd highest grosser was Nagina with Sridevi. 5th highest grosser was Ghar Sansar with Sridevi and sixth highest grosser was Janbaaz with Sridevi.

Deepika Padukone had a terrific 2013 with hits like Race 2, Chennai Express (Industry Hit), Ye Jawani hai Deewani (Blockbuster) and Raam Leela.

What should I know about the Indian actress Soundarya?

 Sowmya Satyanarayana, better known as Soundarya, was from Kolar in Karnataka. Her father, K. S. Satyanarayana, was a film director. She was studying MBBS when she entered films, and acting soon became her career.

Soundarya — a smile that still feels familiar, even after all these years.

She became a very popular actress in Telugu and Kannada cinema and also worked in Tamil, Malayalam and Hindi. She could do a family drama in one film and then take up a completely different role in the next. That was one thing I liked about her.

In Ammoru, she played a woman who is badly treated by her in-laws. Ramya Krishnan was brilliant as the goddess, but Soundarya's character is the one you keep feeling sorry for. She made that suffering look very real.

Anthapuram was completely different. She played a mother caught in the middle of violence in Rayalaseema and spent much of the film trying to protect her child. There was a lot of fear in that character, but she never overdid it.

She acted with so many big stars too — Chiranjeevi, Venkatesh, Rajinikanth, Nagarjuna and Amitabh Bachchan. In Sooryavansham, Amitabh Bachchan played both father and son, and Soundarya played his wife.

She also produced Dweepa, a Kannada film directed by Girish Kasaravalli. She played Nagi in the film as well. It was not the kind of commercial role people normally associated with her, and the film went on to win the National Award for Best Feature Film.

I was a kid when she died in 2004, but I remember how shocking it was. She died in an aircraft crash with her brother Amarnath.

Her last released film was Apthamitra. She played Ganga/Nagavalli, and the film came out after her death. Watching her in that film now has a strange feeling to it. You know she was no longer there, yet there she is on the screen.

Soundarya's career was very short, but she managed to do a lot in those few years. Actress, producer, commercial films, serious films — she had already started doing different things when her life ended so suddenly.
