PIX: 40-something, and looking HOT in gowns!
While Bollywood has become more accepting of actresses who aren't in the prime of their youth anymore, women well into their 40s have taken to experimenting with their fashion choices.
Not that wearing a gown is really being experimental but it's exciting to see these divas ditch their ethnic numbers for an occasional gown at social dos.
Here's looking at 40-plus actresses, who work their gowns.
