She may not do item numbers as frequently as her peers or not even make a big deal about them but Malaika Arora Khan is arguably the best and the most consistent item girl Bollywood has ever seen.
Unlike her counterparts, her popularity has only grown with each hit song.
And now, the hottie is set to mesmerise us all over again with her turn as Anarkali in a song in Sajid Khan's upcoming multi-starrer Housefull 2.
Here's looking at her best performances so far. Click through and vote for your favourite!
The sizzling hot mum's turn as village belle Munni was a huge hit. One of the highlights of the film, the song Munni badnam hui had Malaika bringing the house down with the film's lead actor Salman Khan.
She suffered an injury too on the sets while shooting the song. Guess it was worth all the effort in the end.
One of the few Bollywood girls who can carry of the skimpiest of outfits effortlessly, Malaika was quite a sight in Welcome's Hote rasiley as she danced along with Anil Kapoor and Nana Patekar.
After her huge hit number Chaiyya Chaiyya with Shah Rukh Khan, she reunited with him for the dramatic song sequence in Soham's Kaal.
Flanked by back-up dancers, Malaika captured our imagination as she moved dreamily to the thumping beats of the song set on a dramatic set.
Pole dancing was never so classy!
Malaika brought her signature zing to Richa Sharma's silky voice in the song Maahi ve from Sanjay Gupta's Kaante. Despite being surrounded by skimpily-clad back-up dancers, she stole the show.
And here's how it all started!
Malaika burst on the screen as a gypsy woman dancing atop a moving train with Dil Se's leading man Shah Rukh Khan.
A young journalist revelling in the first rush of love, SRK's Amar Varma sings praises of his lady love as Malaika matches his steps, urging onlookers to go 'Chaiyya chaiyya'.
