India's Most Beautiful Women

India's Most Beautiful Women

DEEPIKA PADUKONE

An incredulous combination of beauty and strength of character, she is athletic in built, slender in form and drop-dead gorgeous. Deepika Padukone, actor, activist, is possibly finding her way in the hall of legendary beauties wearing the same crown as the one flaunted by Madhubala, Audrey Hepburn and Marilyn Munroe in the past. Aquiline jaw, almond eyes and voluptuous lips are the canvas of her expression. She sure is the modern-day dream girl who also raises her voice for the right issues, proving that true beauty is indeed skin deep. Be it her emulation of Queen Padmavati, her feisty role in Bajirao Mastani, her girl next door look in Piku or her fresh act in Om Shanti Om, Deepika’s beauty shines through in each role.

PRIYANKA CHOPRA JONAS

The Quantico girl, Mrs Nick Jonas, the only Indian actor to reach global acclaim, Priyanka’s is a persona only a handful are blessed with in this world. Whether it is an Armani power suit, a Dior gown, an Elle Saab Dress or even an Hermes scarf carelessly flung across a deep neckline, Priyanka can carry any look with inimitable elan.

Both in Bollywood and in Hollywood, she has held forth her position of perfection through the sheer grit of her personality, the depth of her acting. A lotus eater and a global celebrity, Priyanka’s beauty is a matter of India’s pride.
