 A
person reared in the cocoon of cantonment
life, in a middle-class suburb of Delhi, now showered
with attention of global proportions. An ambassador
of feminine beauty, peace, love, and optimism, at an
age most kids are worried about getting a driving-license
and a drinking permit. That's Sushmita Sen. That's Miss
Universe, 1994 orginally born on 19th Nov 1975.
Sushmita made her debut in Dastak in
the role of a vulnerable girl being stalked by a psycho
(Sharad Kapoor). The film was a dud at the box office.
Soon another flop Zor followed. Things
were not going right for Sush.
Then Sushmita did a comic role in David Dhawan’s
Biwi No.1 and caught movie buff’s
attention. She had a flair for the comedy. She also
did a romantic role opposite Abhishek Bachchan in Bus
Itna Sa Khwab Hai. Unfortunately this movie
too bombed at the box office. Recently she was seen
in a very realistic role in Meghna Gulzar’s directorial
debut Filhaal. She has got very rave
reviews for convincing portrayal of her character in
the film.
Sushmita is intelligent, but it's an intelligence as
yet untainted by realism. Before all this happened,
here was yet a gossamer world, tipped between the cradle
and the crown. Creative rather than literal, poetic
rather than pedantic, it is these very qualities that
endeared her to the viewers and judges.
She has led a rather normal filmi existence and has
had her fair share of carping critics, her erratic lifestyle,
her unpunctual ways, her live in relationships, her
much married boyfriend Vikram Bhatt, her phenomenal
asking price, her undeflated ego, her problem and consequent
patch up with Akshay Kumar, all have brought her morethan
her share of flak.
