‘Survival of the fittest’ is Bollywood’s big, unspoken credo. Hit machines stay, flop masters are shown the door. In showbiz, when your stars can shine or decline, nobody can predict. Once instant sensations, many a stars seem to have vanished from our sight and periodically appear at small-time parties and events.
Worse, some of them have been forgotten. Take a look at stars who once enjoyed monumental overnight success, but now, have gone missing from the radar.
Are they one-film wonders? We don’t know. You, dear readers, have the last word.
Diana Penty – Sizzled, then Fizzled
Debut Cocktail with Saif Ali Khan and Deepika Padukone
When Lady Diana made an entry into Bollywood, everybody stopped to stare at this new diva. Not only her looks overwhelm us, her acting chops had us stunned. However, post Cocktail, Lady D is nowhere to be seen. The only time we hear her name is when she appears on the cover of some fashion magazine.
Genelia D’Souza – On the Way to Motherhood
Debut Tujhe Meri Kasam with Ritesh Deshmukh
At just 26, the bubbly, chirpy and happy-go-lucky Genelia was among the very few actors to have achieved instant stardom. She was a sensation down South before moving to Bollywood and did get her fair share of recognition. Last seen: in hubby Ritesh’s Tere Naal Love Ho Gaya. As of now, the actress is expecting. Do we expect the end of her career now? Well, you never know!
Preity Zinta – Cricket Boss, Our Loss
Debut Dil Se with Shah Rukh Khan
Her name spells cheer and joy. Effervescence personified, Preity came as a breath of fresh air. Even today, she is loved and adored by everybody. Not until long, Preity was ranked among Hindi cinema’s top heroine but the lovely lady seems to have disappeared completely from the scene now. She did make news post IPL 2014, but as far as movies are concerned, the actress was last seen in the disastrous Ishkq in Paris. Cricket world, can we please have our PZ back?
Mugdha Godse – Fashionable Disaster
Debut Fashion with Priyanka Chopra
There are few Bollywood actors whose career start off on a good note. In fact, we’d say great note! Mugdha Godse is one such lucky gal. Her performance as a spoilt brat in Fashion was extolled. She was promising, it was felt. But that was it. Despite a great kick-start, Mugdha didn’t soar to new heights. Her last film was 2013’s Satyagraha – Democracy Under Fire. But now, it looks like her career is on fire!
Bhumika Chawla – One Hit Wonder
Debut Tere Naam with Salman Khan
A Salman Khan find (another Bhagyashree?), BC had all the makings to score it big in B-Town. She had the looks and the acting skills, as proved in Tere Naam. After which, as we all know, she became a household name. But unfortunately, Bhumika could not recreate the magic again. The actress went to Tollywood, but Bollywood remained an unconquered dream.
