This article is in great shape. Very little had to be done in the way of grammatical improvements. Below are a few concerns, and I'm sure they can be addressed quickly and the article will be ready to pass in no time. Please address each item line-by-line and I'll strike them as we go...

Early life and educational background

•  Done "Secretary to Managing Director" Shouldn't this be lower-cased?
• "She was selected for the Parker Pen commercial with Amitabh Bachchan, just two days before her exams, and had to shoot the next day. Initially she refused, because of her exam the next day, but the director persuaded D'Souza to shoot for the commercial." Perhaps I'm missing it, but I don't see this in the source?
  •  Done
•  Done [1] This link is dead. Can you replace it? If not, drop the URL...

Debut and breakthrough, 2003-2005

• "2005, D'Souza experienced a slump in her career. Her first Telugu movie in 2005, Naa Alludu, was commercially unsuccessful." I don't see this in the source?

Return to Bollywood and recent work, June 2008-present

• "Her breakthrough performance in 2008 was through the portrayal of the role of Aditi Mahant in the blockbuster Jaane Tu... Ya Jaane Na..." The source here only reflects the box office returns, not that it was her breakthrough performance. For such a statement as that, we really need a source.
• "beautifully balances innocence, sadness, romance and anger." This isn't the quote as it read in the source...
  •  Done
• "Souza and Shahid Kapoor promoted Chance Pe Dance on Episode 8 of STAR Plus's Music Ka Maha Muqqabla." This isn't in the source.
•  Done
• "She will play the lead female role in Ram Charan Teja's upcoming movie Orange, directed by Bommarillu Bhasker." Nor is this...
• "She has also signed on to appear in the Tamil film Ready opposite Dhanush, which would be the Tamil remake of her 2009 Telugu film Ready." This needs a source.

I'll place this on hold for now. — Hunter Kahn 03:13, 18 February 2010 (UTC)

• I've made the remaining changes myself. — Hunter Kahn 05:24, 3 March 2010 (UTC)
