It is very difficult to explain the love of fans for their idols, since it is not always based on common sense. As for Indian cinema, it is three times more difficult to do it. Acting talent sometimes does not play any role: the actress herself does not sing, does not know how to dance (she just hugs with palm trees) - and she is adored by millions of fans. This phenomenon was especially inexplicable at the peak of the popularity of Indian cinema in the USSR. Today the situation has not changed.
Indian producers have been and still are betting on beauty, sexuality, charm and charm. Most often they win. Another feature of the Russian viewer is that, once falling in love, an idol for many years, if not forever, settles and remains to live in the heart of the Bollywood fan. Several examples can be cited as proof.
Amrita Singh
Amrita Singh was born on February 9, 1958. She was remembered by the audience of the 80s for the role of an eccentric girl in the film "The Power of Love". She and Sunny Deol were very convincing and managed to prove to the audience that love can overcome all obstacles and melt the most cruel hearts. Many of Amrita's subsequent roles are controversial, and the scenarios that she was offered can be called cinematic trash, but her fans have not diminished. Love at first sight is an inexplicable thing.
Shoma Anand
Shoma Anand was born on February 16, 1958. The Russians remember her for two charming roles in the films "The Avenger" and "Like Three Musketeers", where her partners were Rishi Kapoor and Mithun Chakraborty. Shoma instantly won the hearts of the audience, especially the male audience. In the filmography of the actress about a hundred paintings, the last one was released in 2011. Naturally, now our idols are starring in age roles without losing their charm.
Kim
Kim was born on April 3, 1960. (There is other information about the date of her birth, for example, October 15.) The calling card of this actress is the legendary film "Disco Dancer" with the participation of Mithun Chakraborty in the title role. Thin, slender, she did not fit the standards of Indian beauty at the time. You can also say about her: "Yes, it was love at first sight!"
Rati Agnihotri
Rati Agnihotri was born on December 10, 1960. The name Rati in the credits meant an unambiguous sold-out in cinemas in the USSR. It all started with the legendary South Indian film "Made for Each Other", in which she played along with Kamalahassan, then already a movie star. Film "Justice!" secured the title of national favorite for Rati. Still, because her partner was Mithun Chakraborty himself! There were also pass-through tapes with her participation: "Star", "Upside Down", but it did not affect the love for this sweet girl in any way.
Khushbu
Khushbu was born on September 19, 1970. She was a child raised in film halls in South Indian studios. In the USSR, the film "My Soul" with the participation of this little girl (then she was 15 years old) was a success at the box office. In India, it failed. The heartwarming story of love that defeated an incurable genetic disease, told by her and Jackie Shroff, her partner on the set, could not leave anyone indifferent. In Khushba everything was the cutest and most touching, and tender, and heroic, so it was impossible not to fall in love. Until now, fans regret not being able to see hundreds of films with her participation.
