). The other films where I appreciated her performance and her rebellious and passionate character would be Dil Se, Kya Kahena and Salaam-Namaste. She failed to impress me in Kal Ho Na Ho. Despite the numerous awards she won, and the popularity she earned with that film, I never was impressed with her work there. Her acting seemed to be way too much artificial there.

Personally, I think they both have got different talents, in different fields. Rani is pretty too. However, she looks way too much pale at the first glance. She looks no different than the average Indian/Bengali girl - which she really is. But as soon as one starts watching her acting, people are bound to admire the inner beauty that she possess within the ordinary exterior, the charisma which drove hundreds and thousands of people to drool over her. She falls into the same category of her cousin, Kajol - ordinary and yet extraordinary.
And honestly, I am eagerly waiting for WA to jump at my throat for daring to criticize her idol in Kal Ho Na Ho...or am I exaggerating?
But in a way, you're correct. Even though I feel the role of Naina Kapoor (um, wasn't it Naina Catherine? Or have I started to loose my brain?) was poorly enacted by Preity (something she improved within a year), compared with the powerful performance that Shahrukh Khan and Saif Ali Khan gave, I cannot imagine anyone else at her place. Though Kareena was the first choice for this role, the thought of Kareena playing Naina is a bit...
for me.
