Bipasha, Kareena, Zeenat Aman, Bollywood's bathtub babes!

In the glamorous scheme of Hindi movies, even something as routine as a bath is nothing short of luxury.

Besides, it also works as a perfect excuse for filmmakers to project the heroine as a mix of playful, hot and, goes without saying, squeaky clean.

Here then is looking at Bollywood's sizzling bathing beauties.

Bipasha Basu

Whether the subject is romance, comedy or horror, one can blindly count on the Bong bombshell to scorch things up with her staple sex appeal.

Here's her version of Lady in the Water. What do you think?

Hema Malini

They don't make dream gals like Hema Malini anymore.

Doesn't the star of superhits like Seeta Aur Geeta, Johnny Mera Naam and Sholay look like a million bucks covered in bubbles and foam?

Saira Banu

Be it Padosan or Jhuk Gaya Aasman, Saira Banu's elfin charms are impossible to miss as she turns on her charm under a lather of bubbles for hit songs like Bhai Battur and Unse mili nazar respectively.

Sharmila Tagore

The original sex symbol appears catalogue-ready in the middle of her frothy bath surrounded by classic scents and her very own inimitable aura.

Zeenat Aman

There's nothing like a good shower and Zeenat Aman demonstrates this belief rather effectively with that pleased smile on her face.

Preity Zinta

Ms Bubbly and a tub filled with bubbles, it doesn't get any more literal than this.

Right, PZ?

Kareena Kapoor

A self-confessed romantic, Kareena Kapoor looks every bit at home taking a leisurely bath around scented candles and fragrant soap.

No wonder she's such a favourite with soap brands.

Anushka Sharma

Few can afford the luxury of setting a bathtub at home and understandably go wild on seeing one in a swanky hotel room.

And Anushka Sharma offers a rather accurate demo of such attitude.

Esha Koppikar

She may not have clicked as a star in a big way but there's no denying two things -- Esha Koppikar is very pretty.

Second, she sure knows how to the play temptress in a tub.

Vidya Balan

Vidya Balan let her bathtub scene do all the talking in The Dirty Picture.

John Abraham

Why should girls have all the fun?

John Abraham has his own share in style with floating rose petals for added effect.
