Ayesha Takia may be still trying to establish herself in Bollywood. But she has stood tall in all her films till date.
Though she gave two flops this year -- Yun Hota Toh Kya Hota and Shaadi Se Pehle -- her work in Nagesh Kukunoor's Dor was so phenomenal that it immediately got her a place among the top 10 actresses of 2006.
As a young Rajasthani widow, Ayesha instilled much pain, and hope, in her performance.
No wonder filmmakers are queuing up to sign her.
