I recently saw some of last movies donw by babi and liked her acting very much. It is unbelieable now to think that the same person went crazy.

Parveen Babi joins the list of celebrities who, despite their popularity, went through similar deaths and proved that money cannot buy happiness.

Dear Interactors:

I felt sorry for Parveen Babi the way she died. Liking/disliking of film artists is largely personal, I think. There are some acors and actresses however whom majority of film viewers like. In this category are Dilip Kumar and Nargis. Hereto, fans of Devanand, Raj Kapur, and Amitabh will probably disagree with me. All of these artists are (were) great. Babi was not in that category but she certainly was unique in her own lovely way.

Both Zeenat Aman and Parveen Babi always reminded me of twins.I loved them both.Both have their own charms and class.There is no match to them both in bollywood.

Freethinker:

I was also a fan of Parveen Babi in my childhood. She had a certain grace. Whenever she starred with Zeenat Aman in any movie, I was always on her side. I never liked Z.A.

Indeed a sad end.

May her soul rest in peace.

Yes,Parveen babi was surely the most beautiful woman I have ever seen in hollywood/bollywood or lolliwood.She has no match at all.Her beauty,her charm,her personality,her charisma was and will never be found in any era.She surely was world beauty queen and will always be.

I always mistook her for Zeenat Aman. We did not get to watch movies. And I don`t like most of them anyways.

It is a trend in acting profession to do drugs and develop mental problems. I guess, the exploitation and the environment drives especially the actresses to insanity. or drug abuse. Only thick skin is not enough to survive.

And yet millions wish to lead this facade of a glamarous life.
