Malayalam Movies 2013

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.
