2013 Bollywood Celebrity Comebacks

Year 2012 witnessed the noteworthy comebacks of dazzling divas like Sridevi and Karisma Kapoor. Well, it appears the trend of making a comeback will continue in 2013 as well with numerous celebrities returning to the silver screen with more of their admirable performances. You saw them start, progress with time and grow to heights which they might have never thought of and then unexpectedly they left us to mark a new chapter in their lives. However, they are going to be back in action after a hiatus from the films!

Starting with the celebrities, talk around town says that B-town's new mom, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, may be seen back to movies by mid year. Bachchan is said to be in talks with two directors - Mani Ratnam for his new project which is an adaptation of Daphne Du Maurier's classic novel Rebecca, and Karan Johar for his remake of Hrishikesh Mukherjee's 1982 film Bemisal. She is even shedding the extra weight she had gained post the birth of her daughter, Aaradhya. It is said that since her daughter is over a year old, she thinks it is an appropriate time to resume work. However, we'll have to wait and watch if the rumors turn true and we indeed get to see her in  a film or two this year!

Aaja Nachle, Nachle Mere Yaar Tu Nachle... Yes you heard it right! Our very own dhak dhak girl Madhuri Dixit Nene is gearing up for yet another comeback to the silver screen to make us dance to her tunes. She was seen last in 2007 released Aaja Nachle, which may not have impressed the critics but we loved and accepted her with open arms by making the film and notably her title song very recognized. Dixit was later seen judging several reality shows making it a point not to vanish from screen altogether. This acting queen, who ruled the Hindi cinema during late 80's and the 90's, will make her second comeback with two releases, Gulab Gang directed and produced by Anubhav Sinha and Dedh Ishqiya by Abhishek Chaubhey which will be the sequel to 2010's Vidya Balan starrer Ishqiya. Gulab Gang is expected to release on March 8, 2013 which is International Women's day, while Dedh Ishqiya was scheduled to start shooting last year but will begin in January and release sometime later this year. We surely expect some breathtaking dance moments and spectacular acting from Madhuri this time around as well!

When was the last time you saw Raveena Tandon onscreen? Was it in the celebrity chat show Isi Ka Naam Zindagi in NDTV or in a guest role in Amithabh Bachchan starrer Bhudha Hoga Tera Baap? Well now we can see her in theaters with her new movie Shobhna 7 Nights which is said to release in March this year. She was indeed seen in Bhudha Hoga Tera Baap but the guest appearance was so minor that it was barely noticed. However, she is playing a full-fledged and a somewhat experimental role in this film. The movie has a bold concept and Raveena was initially hesitant, but she felt that she was mature enough and had grown enough to try new concepts, which are quite accepted by today's generation. The film also casts Rohit Roy and newbie Amit Purohit opposite her. Raveena is surely confident with the role she has picked; so lets support and wish her luck for the film!

The dimple girl Preity Zinta is leaving no stone unturned in promoting her comeback film Ishkq In Paris which was scheduled to be released last year but got delayed due to numerous reasons. Reasons are unclear but evidently we saw an optimistic Preity still promoting the film which is now scheduled to release this year. The story is based on an Indo-French girl played by Preity who falls in love in the city of Paris. Directed by Prem Soni, the film also features french actress Isabelle Adjani and newbie Rhehan Malliek. The story seems promising and lets see how it works at the box-office.

She was the leading herione at the era of Amitabh Bachchan, Anil Kapoor, Sunny Deol and Sanjay Dutt. She left the industry after settling down with actor Saif Ali Khan who was nearly 12 years younger to her. She is still remembered for those amazing movies she had acted in and also unfortunately due to her public divorce from Saif Ali Khan in 2004. Amrita Singh might have dropped the heroine roles but she can now be seen donning the role of Arjun Kapoor's mother in Karan Johar's 2 States which will hit theaters later this year. The movie is the adaption of Chetan Bhagat's novel of the same name. Amrita Singh has earlier essayed the role of a mother to Vivek Oberoi in Sanjay Gupta's Shootout At Lokhandwala and Minissha Lamba in Apoorva Lakhia's Dus Kahaniyaan. Either a heroine or a mother, we believe that she will rock it all over again. We wish her a hearty good luck for her role.                                                                                                                                                                                                           

Remember the Baadshah girl Sonali Bendre? Though not in movies, she is seen in a variety of advertisements and in reality shows as a judge nowadays. However, now you can prepare yourselves to watch her in Milan Luthria's crime thriller Once Upon a Time in Mumbai 2, which is the sequel of 2010's blockbuster hit Once Upon a Time in Mumbai. The film already has a huge star cast including Akshay Kumar, Imran Khan and Sonakshi Sinha. Looking forward to this film, we hope Sonali has good screen space and an amazing role alongside this incredible cast.

Excited to see a new innings in the careers of these amazing actresses? Let's keep glued to the television screens and wait for their movies to hit the theaters! BollyCurry welcomes these divas back and desires that they have a fantastic comeback to Bollywood after an elongated break!
