- Added.
reword suggestion for third sentence "However these attempts failed for a number of reasons including being replaced by other actresses."
- Actually, she was replaced by other actresses in all those films, so I think this is okay.
Could mention the Bengali film award for her debut role and the Filmfare award for best debut for Parineeta
- Added the filmfare award.
- Wikilinked.
Reword of Lage raho sentence. "The following year, she played a radio jockey opposite Sanjay Dutt in Rajkumar Hirani's Lage Raho Munnabhai, a highly successful comedy sequel."
- I am trying to make the text a little less monotonous, that's why a different sentence structure. I can change it if it is too jarring of course.
In term of the highly successful bit, I try to avoid making such comments as success. Since you didn't specify commercial or critically, I'm going to presume both. The box office source says 120 crore but we don't know on what production/marketing budget. There is also the issue of how much an actor contributes to the success of a film. One review is not enough to support the critical acclaim.
I have added a different source for it's commercial success, which includes a "verdict" column.
- I would remove the The Hindu ref for this film as it doesn't add much apart from saying she is starring in the film.
"Vidya starred in five films in 2007; playing a variety of roles."
- Done.
I think criticisms about "styling" of an actress are more suitable for a celeb mag than an encyclopaedia.
- Under normal circumstances I would agree with you, but her poor styling in the film almost cost Vidya her career. Even in her biography, I have given importance to the criticism.
three films were commercially successful - only the gross is given and not the budget so unclear if that ref supports it.
- Included a source with a "verdict" column.
- Before I do a check through the refs later, can you make sure that each ref supports the film appearance, name of role, director, year, any awards, any cameo appearances in songs (including the name of the song)
- A comment from non-nominator. @
Cowlibob: Since year, role, director etc. (present in this or any filmography) do not contain any additional analysis and can be easily verified, I don't think that a ref. has to contain each information i.e. year of release, role, direction etc. and not every ref. contains each information. A mention that the subject was involved in the film is enough, I think.--

- Yeah, it normally is, but in this list the refs I provided do include all the information.
- It's about being verifiable. Simply citing that a person starred in a film, doesn't confirm everything. Roles they played etc. should be verifiable on the article.
- Well explained. Agree with you, Cow.--

For music videos her role in the video.
- Vidya was unnamed in all the videos, so I didn't see the need to include a column saying "unnamed" for all of them.
- They don't need names. According to the refs, she played a "Bengali bride" in Euphoria's video, "Bengali girl" in Pankaj's video, and maybe a google search could find the others.

could mention that the music videos were directed by Pradeep Sarkar who would go on to direct her in Parineeta as it probably played a part in her getting that role.
- Yup, added.
center the refs looks nicer.
- Done.
Ref 6 only confirms the Parineeta win so is not needed for the Filmfare awards for Kahaani etc. I can't see the confirmation of the award for Paa but the others are present. Repeat this ref in the table next to Paa when you find it.
- Added new ref.
Need ref for role in Guru as current on just says she appears in it.
- Added new ref.
This ref says: her role in Salaam was "Tehzeeb Hussain" [
[2]].
- Thanks for the ref. Added.
Sajid Khan should go to Sajid Khan (director)
- Done.
Ishqiyya needs ref for nomination for the Filmfare Actress Award. Critics is cited.
- Added new ref.
According to the 2nd ref for Euphoria the name of the song is "Kabhi aana tu meri gali" but if Saavn is more reliable then fair enough.
- People generally tend to call it "Kabhi aana tu meri gali", but in the album cover the song is titled "Aana meri gully".

Krimuk90: What was the name of character in Parineeta? Ref 5, Ref 7 and the variety ref in the table say it's Lolita.
- It's a Bengali name, though it is pronounced "Lolita", it's always written as "Lalita". The reviewers probably wrote the way it was pronounced in the film.--
