Rangeela

Costar: Aamir Khan
Director: Ram Gopal Varma

Urmila’s earlier films like Narsimha, Drohi, Chamatkar and Aa Gaye Laga Ja were disasters at the box-office.

After as many as 12 flops, Urmila finally made her mark in Ram Gopal Varma’s Rangeela. The film gave Urmila a new look and a new image.

Though a chawl girl, she sported trendy outfits and became the new sex kitten of Bollywood.
