During her Oscar acceptance speech in 2008, actress Kate Winslet said, "I don't think any of us can believe that we have been nominated in any category with Meryl Streep." The line, not surprisingly, attracted the maximum applause, reflecting what ageless and irreplaceable actors like Streep mean to the art of movie making.
Says Vikram Bhatt who is casting 37-year-old Karisma Kapoor in Dangerous Ishq, "I don't want to pass judgment on the current heroines, but I needed someone who would bring emotional depth to my protagonist's character. Only Karisma can pull it off and her age doesn't matter."
Madhuri too will join the cast of Ishqiya 2 soon and her role is expected to be quite different from that of Vidya Balan in Ishqiya. Says Habib Faisal who cast Neetu Singh as his lead actress in his first directorial, Do Dooni Chaar, "The story required a middle-aged couple and I couldn't think of anyone better than Rishi and Neetu. Even today, she has electrifying energy on the set."
Adds Sarika, who bagged a National Award for Parzania, "There has to be a change in the attitudes of people who are responsible for films, only then substantial roles can be written."
