Rangeela girl Urmila Matondkar's meteoric rise in Bollywood continues to inspire even as her sudden fall from grace left a trail of heartbroken fans. The glamorous actress, who is often spotted on the social circuit now, celebrates her 39th birthday today.
We gift her a life-recap on this special day. -
Five years later, she debuted as an actress in Bade Ghar Ki Beti, which entirely passed the box office by and later followed it up with equally pedestrian Narsimha.
Urmila's career making hit was Chamatkar, in which she was romanced by none other than Shah Rukh Khan. -
This was followed by Kaun, which was comparatively only average. Not to be discouraged, the duo tried again with Mast, which failed to impress.
But Jungle's hit run at the box-office showed what the hoo-hah about the two was all about. Opposite Fardeen Khan, Urmila earned herself a place in the critics' lists. -
The year 2004 belonged to Urmila. Under RGV's direction, horror flick Bhoot was her most brilliant performance yet. She won the Filmfare for Critic's Choice, Star Screen Best Actress, Apsara Best Actress, Zee Cine Awards Best Actress , Bollywood Movie Awards Best Actress, Rajiv Gandhi Memorial Awards for Achievement in Bollywood.
