A look at the one-film year old heroines who are now ready for their second release


The second release in some ways is more important than the first. The debut can be attributed to many factors (luck, big banner, or superstar hero) but it is with the second film that an actor really makes his/her mark. Here’s looking at one-film old heroines who are gearing up for their second release. Also, who is ahead in the game with more films, endorsements and big heroes. This will determine their position in the industry a few years down the line. Read on to find out who is leading the beauty pack…
Ileana D’Cruz
