Urmila Matondkar
Urmila Matondkar, petite and full figured, was a child actress who struggled as an actress until Rangeela saw an overnight transformation. She became more than just a ravishing face as she performed varied roles in the movies that followed.
Shekhar Kapoor's Masoom, is more remembered for the great performances by the three kids who played Naseer and Shabana's reel children in the film.
One of those three lively kids was Baby Urmila, an immaculate little actress who delivered her dialogues with accuracy and knew the right frames and angles of the camera. Shekhar, apparently did not have to explain the shots too much to this little girl.
The sparks were there, so when Urmila returned to films after she grew up, she did not get scared to face the director and the camera. All that she needed was good films to show to the world that she was a capable and glamorous actress.
After a couple of inconsequential films came Ram Gopal Verma as Urmila's saviour and Urmila never looked back since then. Verma's Rangeela catapulted Urmila to the status of a glamour queen. Her potential to dance and sex appeal discovered and displayed by Verma in the film made Urmila an overnight star.
For those who say that Urmila is at her best only when she is in a Verma film, the actress has proved her worth in films outside the Verma camp like Judaai.
Urmila Matondkar is undoubtedly a talented actress, but it is her great body, glamorous look and dance that give the 'oomph girl' an edge in the cutthroat world of films. Basics on Urmila Matondkar
