Ayesha Takia made her debut performance opposite Vatsal Seth in an extremely forgettable film called Tarzan – The Wonder Car. The actresss had the spunk and energy but her talent was untapped due to a poor role. Then came Dil Maange More.....again a poor role was what Ayesha got from the script.
And then came the wonderful Socha Na Tha.....a simple love story with really lovely performaces from both leads. Ayesha Takia played the girl-next-door to near perfection. It was a treat watching her as she overhsadowed Abhay Deol and Apurva Jha.
Then came a string of meaningless tiny roles in Shaadi No.1, Home Delivery and Yun Hota Toh Kya Hota. And then again....worth the wait....a film called Dor by Nagesh Kukunoor of Iqbal fame...
Ayesha sans make up got into the skin of Meera and delivered a knock-out performance(even Gul Panag was damn good BTW).
And now recently I saw Salaam-e-Ishq.....where yet another time she’s got a very tiny role that barely taps her potential. Its sad to see such a talented actress signing up multi-starrers........she’d rather do solo roles and win much more accolades as a character actress apart from her good looks and slim figure for which she’s already much talked about.
