7 Curvy Bollywood Actresses Who Are Supremely Awesome

Enough with the size 0 nonsense; we want Bollywood actresses to reflect a positive body image, happy women with happy bodies.

Forget the skin and bones fad, don’t we all want celebrities to be our inspiration for getting out there and being fit instead of motivating us to survive on three leaves of lettuce and a cup of green tea? Here’s celebrating the supremely awesome Bollywood actresses who have rocked their curves:

1. Vidya Balan
Not taking note of what others have to say about her body, the actress carries herself with confidence and has a swelling fan following, thanks to her talent. Versatility is her forte and her acting prowess never goes unnoticed. In fact, she liberally flaunted her curves in the 2011 "The Dirty Picture" and the film fetched her a National Award for best actress.

2. Sonakshi Sinha
She weighed over 90 kilos before she joined the film industry and shed 30 kilos for her debut movie "Dabangg" with Salman Khan. Even after weight loss, she is not a size zero.Unperturbed by the comments about her weight, the 26-year-old feels her films' success is enough to stop the wagging tongues and so do we!

3. Katrina Kaif
Even after buffing up for Dhoom 3, Katrina isn’t a skinny actress. We want the number of her trainer NOW!

4. Huma Qureshi
Daughter of restaurateur Saleem Qureshi, Huma is a self-proclaimed foodie. She is not interested in losing weight, but believes in staying fit. After GOW and Dedh Ishqiya, we doubt anyone's paying attention to her weight!

5. Parineeti Chopra
Parineeti is a star, she is talented and incredibly beautiful. She has managed to cement her spot in Bollywood in no time because of her unparalleled acting prowess. Who cares how much she weighs, ain't nobody got the time for that!

6. Sunny Leone
There’s no denying the fact that Sunny Leone is incredibly hot. She has a long way to go in her acting career but for now, she sure is rocking that body!

7. Sonam Kapoor
Going by her Instagram updates, Sonam devotes a lot of time to fitness – taking up Pilates and yoga. She celebrates her body with her choice of apparel. Hey Sonam, some help here?

7 Worst Celeb Tattoo Fails!

You know what they say about celebrities and tattoos; get inked in haste, repent at leisure.

Given that they they’ll have to carry it around forever, you’d think celebs would invest a little attention and care before getting themselves inked. From horrible spellings to premature demonstrations of love, here are seven celebs who need to be shipped off to tattoo rehab:

Britney Spears
We think the Tattoo Gods might have forgiven Britney when she permanently inked herself with a Chinese symbol meant to signify ‘mysterious’ but which sadly ended up meaning ‘strange.’ But then she went ahead and got a misspelt tattoo of the word ‘God’ in Hebrew on her neck and they just gave up on her.

           
Rihanna
This grammatically incorrect tattoo is Rihanna’s way to letting people know that she didn’t pay attention during her French grammar lessons and apparently neither did her tattoo artist.

Johnny Depp
The actor gifted his fiancee a tattoo of her name on his arm but when they broke up, he had it altered to Wino, a word synonymous with the homeless. Aww shucks, and there we were, thinking that fame brought you everything.

Kesha
Why Kesha, for the love of God and all things sane, why? We tried listing down the purposes of having the words ‘Suck It’ tattooed inside your mouth and we are sadly still stuck at #1. Was this a drunken mistake? Please, let this be a drunken mistake.

Angelina Jolie
The sultry actress had her ex- husband Billy Thornton’s name tattooed above a weird dragon and when she started dating Brad Pitt, she felt obliged to replace it with the latitudes and longitudes of her children’s birthplaces. Didn’t like the former, not too crazed about the latter.

Hayden Panettiere
If tattoos had typos, then Hayden’s misspelt Italian tattoo would have an angry red slash all across her back. Ask the actress about it, and she shrugs it off; “It’s misspelled, whatever. I just put my own spin to it.”

Deepika Padukone
While their relationship was still fresh, Deepika got her then-beau Ranbir Kapoor’s initials inked on her neck; the tattoo serves no purpose now except to slap all future boyfriends with a reminder of her ex each time she turns her back. Subtle much?

Which celeb tattoo do you wish you could undo? Let us know in the comments box below!

Shah Rukh Khan
Bollywood 'badshah' SRK sang "Apun Bola" for his 2000 hit film "Josh". The track is picturised on the actor and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan.

The perfectionist hit all the right notes with "Aati kya Khandala" in the 1998 film "Ghulam" with Rani Mukherjee.

A special mention to Alia Bhatt for her number in Highway. We must admit that this fiery debuntante has a lovely singing voice!

7 Bollywood Actors Who Have Gone Through Unbelievable Physical Transformations For Movie Roles

Being an actor isn’t an easy job, apart from spending half your life on a set, you need to spend the other half at the gym bulking up or shedding some pounds.

While some Bollywood actors have maintained their trademark look for years, some have been more than willing to go the extra mile to fit in to a role. Here are 7 Bollywood Actors Who Have Gone Through Massive Physical Transformations For Movie Roles:

1. Aamir Khan (Ghajini)
Aamir Khan’s physique in Ghajini was unbelievable, terrifying even. The actor undertook an ungodly diet and physical routine to get under the skin of his character in Ghajini.

2. Shahid Kapoor (Kamineey)
It wasn’t just his body he worked on for Vishal Bharadwaj’s Kamineey, he also underwent an image makeover from the chocolate boy circa Vivaah to the tough bad guy.

3. Farhan Akhtar (Bhaag Milkha Bhaag)
Could you spot the difference between Farhan Akhtar and Milkha Singh? We sure couldn’t.

4. Amitabh Bachchan (Paa)
Amitabh Bachchan’s transformation in Paa wasn’t strictly physical but sitting through the entire process and embodying the role of Auro was nothing short of commendable.

5. Abhishek Bachchan (Guru)
Abhishek Bachchan had to put on a whole lot of weight to look the part of Guru Bhai in Mani Ratnam’s film. He looked every bit the scheming businessman.

6. Hrithik Roshan (Guzaarish)
Hrithik Roshan had to grow out his hair and put on a whole lot of weight. The film might have bombed but Hrithik looked perfect in his role.

7. Saif Ali Khan (Omkara)
Saif Ali Khan had to drop weight (including his muscle mass), get a buzz cut and be every bit a ruffian. From a royal to a menacing villian, good job Saif!

Before & After: 7 Celeb Moms Who Bounced Back To Shape Post – Pregnancy

One minute they were cradling a sexy baby bump, and then we blinked and somehow in the space of that time, they had managed to strip off every last extra pound.

Life as a celeb mom resembles that of a normal mom, except more hectic, what with all those extra gym sessions to plan. Losing the pregnancy pounds is a lengthy chore, one that these stars have turned into a sport, with actors burning the flab in record periods of time. Shocking as it looks, here are seven celeb moms who somehow got their sexy back almost immediately after pregnancy:

Megan Fox

The foxy star is said to have gained 23 pounds during pregnancy, not a single one of which was visible when she hit the red carpet for a movie premiere three months postpartum. Go figure.

Shakira

Her hips might not lie, but her photos sure do! While burning all those extra pounds would have taken us, the mere mortals, the better part of a year - Or a couple of years actually - Shakira simply shrank back into her pre-pregnancy self within a record period of nine weeks.

Kim Kardashian

Overtime at the gym, crash dieting or a little help of the surgical variety - Take your pick. While the secret behind the new momma’s weight loss spree remains well-hidden, her fabulous new figure makes it obvious why she’s the one Kardashian that the world loves to keep up with.

Beyonce

The world did a double take when four short weeks after her delivery, rockstar Beyonce put in an appearance at a Jay-Z concert in a hot red dress, having left the extra pounds back at home. 

Miranda Kerr

While most models would have to survive on a diet of air to look that that slim, Miranda Kerr somehow just morphed backed into her pre-baby sizzling self within three months of the delivery. What? When? How? No fair.

Jennifer Lopez

It is said that the Jennifer who stepped on the red carpet five weeks after giving birth to twins worked hard to shed the extra lbs. If you ask us, she could have just stepped into a time machine and zapped into her old self and no one would know the difference.

Jenna Dewan - Tatum

Barely seven weeks after she delivered baby Everly, Jenna Dewan was back on the circuit, flaunting her fabulously trimmed down figure. While a lot of work must have gone down to burn the extra lbs, it can’t hurt that she has the ultra-fit Channing Tatum for inspiration.
