There are some performances in Bollywood which remain in our hearts for a very long time. For example, the bubbly, happy-go-lucky geet with her highly energetic take on life stole our hearts and etched a place there forever. This was when Imtiaz Ali created a number one slot for Kareena Kapoor Khan in the Bollywood rat race by giving her a Jab We Met; the slot which she truly deserved.
Many years down the line, Imtiaz Ali is back paving the way for another Bollywood heroine to reach that highly craved-for space. Though it is still a long way before an Alia Bhatt can dethrone a Deepika Padukone, Imtiaz has certainly put her on the right track. Alia's performance in Highway is being compared to milestone performances of Nargis, Meena Kumari, Nutan and Shabhana Azmi.
While Geet had the breezy, coolness about her, Veera has the spunk and the innocence, all characteristics projected excellently by these two ladies. Who, however, outdoes the other? Who will remain a little longer in your hearts ...and in the Bollywood charts? Would love to know your thoughts...
