Another Bollywood belle in town

  • IndiaGlitz, [Friday,July 15 2005]

Everybody is on the bandwagon saying that Tollywood is sold out on Bollywood babes.

Though it may be true, the fact of the matter that not all of them are successful.

There are many egregious failures from Hindi in Telugu --- the list in fact is a long one.Twinkle Khanna, Raveena Tandon, Namratha, Preity Zinta, Amisha Patel,Sushmitha Sen, Sameera Reddy, it has been one long roster with not many tasting much success.

Only the likes of Tabu (incidentally she was born in Hyderabad), Sonali Bhendre have had some extended run here.

The fact of the matter is that Tollywood, quite unlike Tamil filmdom (where actresses like Khushboo, Jyothika have made total cross-over to),does not give Bollywood actresses an extended run.

Most of them are here for glamour. And the glamour element runs out quickly.

But this doesn't deter young heroines from trying.

The latest to come knocking on the doors is Neha Dupia, who made her debut with Fiza.

The younglass is making a big attempt to make a splash here through Maistry with Sashikanth.

Of course, her Tamil film with Prabhu Deva is being dubbed here as Satti is ready for release.

Let us see what kind of luck Neha has.
