These pictures are from a film called Rojulu maarayi ( Days have changed ) , the very first film of Waheeda Rehman. She played this small skit in a folk song, a memorable one as it is still played in Andhra pradesh , a landmark indeed. This is the song which floored Guru dutt and made him to take Waheeda as his heroine for times to come...Waheeda literally made people dance with her graceful and cheerful countenance not to say anything about her excellent dancing skills...

Nasir Bhai...Undoubtedly women do look good in thirties..the flab goes away and an elegance comes into their demeanour...You can watch how Mumtaz, Rekha, Sri devi et al.
For those who put on lot of weight in between those years, from twenty to thirty, they look old and kind of strained in later films..Vyjayantimala for instance..She was weighing a tonne in Madhumati..Still carried the role with aplomb..which is a different matter altogether.
For the likes of Waheeda Rehman or Mala sinha, who havent put on any weight all through their career..Age never touched them..By the way, i will upload the photos of Waheeda Rehman from the first film of hers..where she did a wonderful Skit dance in local folklore, telugu. After seeing this Guru dutt picked her up...and the rest is history. smile.gif



Well said simplefable.
But we need to distinguish another factor. For instance you speak of Vyjayantimala in MADHUMATI. I think she looked her best in this movie. Not to forget that this was a 1958 movie. What to say of her later movies such as Pyar Hi Pyar and Prince. She still looked good for her age. At the same time watch other aging heroines too. They ruled the roost. What this indicates? Simply that the taste of the cinegoers of yore included heroines who were busty or even a little stout (I wont use the term "fat"). That was okay then.

Today, the same set of bodies are rejected even for a mother's role. Not to speak of a heroine's roles. In short, the taste of the cinegoers and critics has changed drastically. Today they desire nymphets. Yesterday it was "real women".

By the way thanks for those lovely pictures. smile.gif

I know I'm being greedier Reeth. Dont want to intrude but is there any chance of having Kalpana's picture? You do know that she first appeared in PROFESSOR opposite Shammi Kapoor. (Not Kalpana Kartik - Mrs Dev Anand). I don't see her photos around on the net. Same is the case of Rajshri or Rajashree. Of course, you did download one of her pictures that's all.

But please take your own time. NO rush!

Thanks for those pix of south Indian actresses.
However, the gallery would be incomplete without the pix of Surya Kumari. Remember her? She had a prominent role in UDAN KHATOLA (1954) opposite Dilip Kumar. In fact she was nominated for the Filmfare Best Supporting Actress for her said role. Additionally, she was a freedom fighter and a very wellknown personality in other spheres as well. smile.gif
