Actress of D : Rukshar

I came across an interesting tibit of information. The actress who is opossite Randeep Hooda in D who plays the actress Bhakti Bhatnagar is Ruksar. She did a movie which is atleast 10 years old. "Yaad Rakhegi Duniya". It had Adtiya Pancholi and she had cancer or a congitnal heart disease. Something fatal I can't remember what. But she died at the end of the movie. She had a very goody goody look in the movie. Plus the character was very mischievous and bratty. The role in D is totally different. I think she did a decent job in the movie but doesn't have a screen presnence in the movie. In fact Isha Koppikar even in the miniscule role of Chunky Pandey's wife comes across much move effective.

Since D is a prequel to Company it is so easy to imagine Ruksar's character metamorphing into Manisha Koirala's character in Company. I think it is good they didn't use the same actors. It would have negated the effect of D. It might have done a little better at hte box office. Well for any movie based on the underworld in typical mumbai style has a very small demographic that it appeals to. And it has done great in Mumbai.
