Ileana D’Cruz



Ileana D’Cruz  : Bollywood’s starry debutante

B-town’s newest sensation Ileana D’Cruz makes a mark in the film industry with a debut in Barfi. Known as the glamorous South Indian beauty, she took a big step to venture in an extraordinary movie with a very distinctive role opposite bold actors like Ranbir and Priyanka. 

Ileana’s portrays the character where in the first half she shines with a wordless romance with Barfi and the second half as girl who helps the guy she is in love with to find his true love. Shot in the scenic beauty of Darjeeling, the bike rides, silent kiss and character of married girl heartbroken, Ileana makes an impression.  

 Being a debutante she took such an unconventional role and managed to win the hearts of the viewers not only with her charming features but also with a remarkable balanced performance. The actress reveals “I have never chalked a path for myself; instead I feel that I have just walked down the road planned by my destiny. So far it’s always been the right one and I am waiting to see where it takes me next. I’m just taking it all step by step.”

She determined to shun the glamorous avatar opposite a big celeb like Salman and others previously and instead took a gamble to enter Bollywood with an exceptional film Barfi, which is now the biggest hit with a nomination for the Oscars.

Ileana not only awed the audiences but is also being showered with words of praise from directors, actors and film critics across the industry. And now that she has impressed the people, she has bagged two more films with the production house that made Barfi.

The actress shares that she aspires to work on such interesting roles with something more substantial where people appreciate her as an actor.

Barfi Bollywood Movie of the month



Barfi:

Truly said love has no language. Barfi a very captivating movie shows how silence is so expressive.  An eccentric story of a deaf and mute man and an autistic girl, told without any background music like the traditional Chaplin and Raj Kapoor movies. 

Anurag Basu’s Barfi depicts the character of Barfi (originally named Murphy by his parents) who being impaired of speech and hearing, lives a happy go lucky life with adventure, love and humour. Ranbir Kapoor brings the Chaplinesque aura to the character of Barfi, who is a simple and innocent hearted man living in Darjeeling with his ageing father. South Indian actress Illeana D’Cruz plays Shruti , the rich girl falling in love with a simple poor guy Barfi in spite of being engaged to a wealthy man from Kolkata. However, as material comforts dominate her brief romance, she chooses to marry the moneyed man over Barfi. 

Priyanka Chopra steals the show with a brilliant performance as an autistic girl Jhilmil, belonging to a wealthy family who fail to understand her sensitivity.  Meanwhile, Barfi tries overcoming his love and getting money for the treatment of his father who is battling kidney failure. Being helpless, he tries to rob a bank but fails and then ends up kidnapping Jhilmil for money. As Barfi and Jhilmil are together they realise how they are perfect for each other in spite of their physical imperfections. Moreover, Shruti after 6 years of marriage realises that she still has strong feelings for Barfi.

Ranbir and Priyanka with their remarkable performances prove themselves as the best actors of their generation and Ileana D'Cruz gives an admirable performance making the most of her character. 

Barfi comes as a masterpiece with a warm yet humorous story, splendid cinematography, soulful songs and a sweet treat for the audience.
