Graceful and Gorgeous. An Indian actress called Tabu.

There are many Indian actress's who are gorgeous, beautiful and captivating. Madhubala's charm is legendary. Jayaprada had a stunning persona though her political adventures may have made her a caricature and killed the mystique. Kareena Kapoor has, like wine, grown even more intoxicating and gorgeous as the years go by.  I do find Isha Talwar amongst the new kids to be ethereally beautiful, especially in Vineet Srinivasan's romantic movie, "Thatathin Marayathu" . I actually like the siren Nayanthara too. I find her persona refreshingly straightforward,very sensual and very sexy.Vidya Balan was mesmerizing in Parineeta and in Munna Bhai but somehow  looks a tad matronly now. Madhuri Dixit and Hema Malini have a kind of timeless and graceful appeal, but somehow, the aura is not unique.
 Tabu amongst  all of them is someone who has kept aloof and mysterious. The mystique makes her even more attractive and alluring. Her filmography has added to her stature. I do rank her as one of the most captivating women on screen. This collection of photos therefore was a pleasure to watch.Tabu at her gorgeous, graceful best.

Suchitra Sen. RIP.

I remember seeing Devdas and fell in love with Suchitra Sen's Paro. There was a grace and class about the lady that was mesmezising. Like most Bengali women, she had lovely eyes and came across as cultured and refined. There was also intelligence and intensity in the performances. I remember Aandhi too, which was equally captivating. Rest in Peace Madam and Thank you for some memorable movie moments.
