Deepika disappointed at no 7 rank in sexiest woman in Asia 2011

Bollywood actress Kareena Kapoor has emerged as the sexiest woman in Asia, according to a survey.

Eastern Eye, a weekly, conducted a survey through social networking sites like Twitter and Kareena came out on top, edging out last year's winnerKatrina Kaif.


1. Kareena Kapoor

Kareena, who recently gave hits like Bodyguard and Ra.One, won by one per cent of votes, the narrowest ever margin and beat off tough competition from some of the most stunning women from around the world.

2. Katrina Kaif

Katrina Kaif, who had won the title for the last three years by a large margin, slipped into second place.

Eastern Eye showbiz editor Asjad Nazir said, "This battle between the two beauties is a sign of things to come in Bollywood in the next few years. Although the list contained pop stars, TV personalities, models and film stars from around the world, the voting quite comprehensively showed that Kareena and Katrina have put a distance between themselves and the rest of the contenders in terms of popularity."

3. Priyanka Chopra

Priyanka Chopra, whose upcoming movies Don 2 and Barfee are creating quite a buzz, was placed on the third spot.

4. Bipasha Basu

Widely acknowledged as one of the hottest bods in Bollywood for the longest time, Bipasha Basu slipped one slot down to number four this year.

The actress has a lot to look forward to as she gears up for two releases -- Players and Jodi Breakers.

5. Freida Pinto

Hollywood's exotic sweetheart Freida Pinto has clocked in success with Rise Of The Plaet Of The Apes and Immortals this year.

The actress has become quite adept at making headlines, be it on the red carpet or on the 70 mm.

6. Aishwarya Rai Bachchan

New mommy Aishwarya Rai Bachchan may have traded films for motherhood for a while but that doesn't mean she'll recede in the background.

Despite the fact that her last release was Guzaarish that came out last year, the actress has made it to top ten!

7. Deepika Padukone

It's not just us who drool over Deepika Padukone's goddess-like figure and endless legs. Turns out, the actress is feted by the whole of Asia.

The 25-year-old actress figures at number seven on the list.

9. Sonam Kapoor

Sonam Kapoor may have met with little success in films so far -- her last film Mausam sank without a trace -- but her fashion choices have made sure she's a part of all filmi buzz.

We are not surprised to see the young actress at number nine in this list.

12. Jacqueline Fernandez

Murder 2 actress Jacqueline Fernandez's smouldering act in the film gained her quite a fan following that seems to be increasing exponentially!

The Sri Lankan beauty claimed the 12th spot on the sexiest Asian women's list.

15. Lara Dutta

Mum-to-be Lara Dutta figures at number 15 on the list.

16. Sussanne Roshan

Star wife Sussanne Roshan is so fit even after having two kids, she could give any starlet a run for her money.

She's the only non-actress to figure on this list too. How's that for an achievement?

19. Malaika Arora Khan

The hottest mum on the Bollywood block, Malaika Arora Khan has made it to the list too.

Munni may be a thing of the past now but Malaika is sure to have more aces up her sleeve.

23. Nargis Fakhri

Bollywood's latest import Nargis Fakhri may just turn out to be the next Katrina Kaif.

With a successful film debut (Rockstar) and a reported Rs 9 crore worth of endorsement offers, this babe is set for a meteoric rise in filmdom.

38. Sonakshi Sinha

After collecting accolades for her village belle turn in Dabangg, Sonakshi Sinha is really biding her time for the perfect follow up to her smashing debut.

While we wait for her next cinematic outing, the actress has been placed at number 38 in the list.

Deepika Padukone in Desi Boyz; What are actresses working on?

Please share 

Looks like actresses are finally taking over in Bollywood -- some of the biggest upcoming films generating all the buzz don't actually belong to heroes, but to heroines.

For instance, there's immense interest in Vidya Balan as Silk Smitha in The Dirty Picture or Kareena Kapoor's Marilyn Monroe-meets-Madhubala act in Madhur Bhandarkar's Heroine.

Then, one supposes it's only fair to clock the upcoming releases that you are likely to see your favourite actresses in.

Take a look at what you can expect from Kartina Kaif, Deepika Padukone and the other hotties...

Katrina Kaif in Dhoom 3

The Dhoom franchise is getting bigger. With Aamir Khan as baddie, Katrina is toning down to fit into a bikini. The actress has avoided skin exposure so far (though she did sizzle in Boom, eons ago). In Ek Tha Tiger, she pairs up with ex Salman Khan.

Not to forget Yash Chopra's next big one.

Kareena Kapoor in Agent Vinod

Teaming up with beau Saif Ali Khan in what looks like Vijay Anand-meets-James Bond pulp thriller, this Chammak Challo has the most balanced bag of movies currently -- from the author-backed Heroine to pairing up with her favourite Khan in Talaash (Aamir, not Saif). 

Vidya Balan in The Dirty Picture

Talk of the town, Vidya looks like she was meant to portray a voluptuous beauty who uses her body to her advantage. Vidya put on weight indiscriminately, first for Ishqiya and now for The Dirty Picture.

Her biggest fan, designer Sabyasachi Mukherjee, puts it best, "She has the kind of sensuality the common man wants to see."

Deepika Padukone in Desi Boyz

After the disastrous Aarakshan, Deepika turns to rom-com in this Akshay Kumar-John Abraham-starrer. So far, it's her cat fights with co-star Chitrangada Singh that's kept the film in the news.

Bipasha Basu in Players

Exotic locales, uber glamorous heroines and pulsating thrills, Players is a typical Abbas Mustan fare. That basically means the heroines (there are two here) will be treated like showpiece furniture.

Despite the handicap, Bipasha Basu is turning on the heat in the promos (catch her in that smokin' red bikini).

Rani Mukerji in Talaash

Back in the company of old friend Aamir, Rani is hoping to resuscitate her career with Talaash.

She had already silenced her detractors to an extent with No One Killed Jessica as a feisty journalist earlier this year.

Sonam Kapoor in Players

With the ghosts of Mausam behind her, Sonam badly needs a hit to be in contention. Players could be the kind of project Sonam may have marked herself out for.

Don't forget the Kareena formula: it doesn't matter how big or meaty is your role so long as the film is a blockbuster. 

Priyanka Chopra in Agneepath

A talenthouse who's yet to realise her true potentials, Priyanka can pull a few surprises in Agneepath, a film that seems to be set in the Maharashtrian underworld.

If Priyanka's Marathi mulgi act in Kaminey is anything to go by, Piggy Chops has another ace up her sleeve. 

Anushka Sharma in Matru Ki Bijlee Ka Mandola

A reincarnation of Juhi Chawla in some sense, this very organic, natural actress has become a favourite for filmmakers looking for the Janakpuri-style firebrands.

More than Ladies vs Ricky Bahl, one is waiting to see how Vishal Bhardwaj moulds her in Matru Ki Bijlee Ka Mandola.

Preity Zinta in Ishq in Paris

It seems the actress has been working with an international trainer to get into perfect shape for this film.

Given that it's her first production, Preity is leaving no stone unturned. 

Deepika Makes Up With Kareena!

Kareena, Deepika share wardrobe!!

the best celeb assets! Deepika's eyes!!! Kat's body? (Source: Rediff)

Most-desired body: Katrina Kaif

After her sizzling item appeal in Sheila Ki Jawani, Kat is currently regarded as the most fab-figured actress of B-Town. Do you think her curves are simply the best?

models give our leading ladies tough competition in the best bod department. And the latest Kingfisher Calendar Girl, Angela Jonsson, is a super-toned bikini bombshell.

 Bips' body graph has moved only one way -- up. Is it just us or is her figure looking better every day, thanks to her dedication to fitness and eating healthy?

Moving to the mesmerising mouth department, Piggy Chops may well be our very own Indian Angelina Jolie. Her full pout is enough to have guys swooning!

She's as demure as they come, but Vidya can't play down her sensual, plump lips -- and she shouldn't try to either!

When it comes to pretty peepers, Dippy's coy look is carried off beautifully by her almond-shaped eyes. One look and you'd be smitten -- we're guessing that's what happened to Sidhartha Mallya!

Ash's gorgeous green eyes are the focal point of her beauty -- all she has to do is bat her lashes and the world is her oyster!

No doubt about it -- in a world where every second celebrity gets a nose job done, Genelia's perfectly pretty (and natural!) one is a rarity.

Rounding off the nosey side of things we have Sonam, whose straight, petite feature is an asset to her face. It looks great both on and off the camera.

Her high, chiselled cheeks are the first thing you notice about Kareena's face. Their radiance gives her a fresh, exotic look.

Munni's also got high-set apple cheeks that bring out the best in her sultry features. Most guys will agree!

Dimples are of no use when you don't have fab, filled-out cheeks for them to stand out on. Fortunately, Preity does and they take years off her looks.

Charismatic Sush tosses her mane around a lot -- and when you see those glossy, cascading strands of hers you just want to sigh!

Kangs has the best curls ever -- no frizz and plenty of volume. Her twisted locks have lots of women land up in salons to imitate that same look!

She's got movie star hair -- oh, wait, she is a movie star! But Neha's shining mane is natural and has us going green with envy.

Peaches 'n' cream -- if you saw Karisma with or without makeup, you'd be bound to agree! She's got flawless skin

And finally, we come to Dia, whose skincare regime is a winner for sure -- let us in on the secret of flawless and fab too, won't you?
