Aishwarya Rai, Susmita Sen, Lara Dutta, Priyanka Chopra - The classic beauty contest winners!

Beauty Pageants and bollywood have long been associated with each other, almost like the Sun and the Moon.

In recent years, bollywood has been flooded with a whole lot of A class heroines, most of whom have been winners of the beauty contests like Miss India and Miss Universe, to even Miss World.

The bandwagon has many stars to its credit. Actresses like Aishwarya, Susmita, Lara, Priyanka etc, have been on top of these National and International contests and emerged great winners.


Aishwarya, who won the Miss India crown in 1994, entered into films through her South film’ Jeans’. Her foray into bollywood was slow and steady. As she was at first dismissed.

As being plastic, the actress proved everybody wrong by giving her best shot in film after film. Her films like ‘Aa Ab Laut Chale’, ‘Taal’, ‘Josh’, ‘Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam’, ‘Devdaas’, ‘Guru’,etc all proved to the world, what an amazing actress she could be. She still is one of the finest actresses of our country.

Susmita Sen, who won the coveted title of Miss Universe in 1994, after emerging the winner at the National level, was not as successful inbollywood though. Her films like ‘Kyun Ki Main Jhooth Nahi Bolta’, ‘Biwi No. 1’, ‘Main Hoon Na’, ‘Maine Pyar Kyun Kiya’, etc, made her an actress with a great screen presence, but she somehow faded into the sidelines, with her other interests taking hold.

Lara Dutta, who became Miss Universe in the year 2000, made her foray into films with counterpart Priyanka Chopra in ‘Andaaz’. However, she came into lime light much later. Films like ‘Partner’, ‘Blue’, etc made her bounce back. ‘Housefull’, recently released has her in a pivotal role.

Priyanka Chopra, who got the 2nd Runner up title in the Miss India pageant in 2000, came into films with ‘Andaaz’, too. She got many breaks with ‘Mujhse Shaadi Karogi’, ‘Aitraaz’, ‘Don’’Dostana’, ‘Fashion’, ‘Kaminey’ etc,She is still going strong in the top position run inbollywood!
