Was Meena Kumari a great actress? Mehta, finally, takes on this question with some diligence, evaluating her eyes, voice, bearing, versatility, professionalism and technical cunning (she required no glycerine to cry), and concludes that even with poor material “there was always a minimum level of artistry.” As a comparison, he offers Sharmila Tagore. “I saw [Tagore] play an old woman... she gave no intimations of the fifty years she was supposed to represent.” But when it came to Meena Kumari in Mere Apne, “doddering along the street, her posture slightly bent, she looks every inch the woman she is supposed to be.”
