"Naughty" hits a new high this Friday with Vidya Balan's film, The Dirty Picture, in theatres. Here's a look at top 10 naughty heroines in Bollywood.
Vidya Balan in The Dirty Picture: "Naughty" hits a new high this Friday with Vidya Balan's film, The Dirty Picture, in theatres. The actress gave us a heady peek with her many "in character" appearances while promoting the film. The sassy pout, the plunging knotted blouse and the brazen skin show – Vidya Balan has redefined naughty in Bollywood.
Sonam Kapoor in Players: Sonam Kapoor moved away from her demure fashionista roles and image with the show of her middle finger in the upcoming racy flick, Players. With Ranbir getting away with it in Rockstar, would the ladies be far behind?
Nargis Fakhri in Rockstar: Days ago, newbie Nargis Fakhri convinced Rockstar Ranbir to watch adult flicks in a seedy Delhi single-screen and chug furtive shots - worldly-wise takes a whole new meaning in Bollywood.
Katrina Kaif in Mere Brother Ki Dulhan: Rock chic Katrina strums her guitar with confidence and has no qualms getting sloshed on road trips – beer or bhang – anything will do. Even the company of prospective in-laws is no deterrent for this happy-go-lucky "liberated" Bolly girl.
Rani Mukherjee in No One Killed Jessica: The tough-talking single reporter in the dramatisation of the Jessica Lall murder in 1999 swears, smokes and swoon, has sex and in one instance drops her partner to chase a lead, telling him to…fly solo.
Poorna Jagannathan in Delhi Belly: The leggy actress plays a journalist like co-actor Imran Khan. On the job, they flee from goons, kiss and do naughty unmentionables.
Kalki Koechlin in Shaitan: The sex and violence grabbed headlines in this thriller even before its release. Add to that, Kalki's lip-lock with Kirti Kulhari, the other female lead. The candy- floss world of genteel Bollywood heroines changed forever.
Kalki Koechlin in Dev D: A high-profile escort who can seduce in Hindi, Tamil, English and French. Kalki Koechlin's debut film gave a whole new modern twist not only to the classic Devdas, but to the Bollywood heroine as well.
Vidya Balan in Ishqiya: Vidya plays the sly seductress, but don't look for white chiffon or rain. The overt display of raw sexuality, with Vidya sucking Arshad's thumb, raised the level of Hindi cinema's sex scenes forever. Vidya even recreated this scene on Koffee With Karan, sucking on the thumb of Rani Mukherjee who had appeared on the Chat show with her.
Bipasha Basu in Jism: It's been eight years, but Jism remains one hot film – with a villain who looks drop-dead gorgeous in each intense, passionate scene. All eyes are now on Jism 2 - "naughty" is likely to be elevated once again in Hindi cinema.
