PIX: Sexy Curves Are Back In Bollywood!

The latest body trend in Bollywood tells us that voluptuous is back in vogue!

It seems the assembly-line size zero frames are out, and real bodies that add to an individual's personality are in!

It's quite thrilling to see movie-goers cheer for these women and admire them in their natural form.

Gangs Of Wasseypur actress Reemma Sen catches everyone's attention as the sensual Durga in low-cut blouses and saris. While we hope to see more of her in the film's sequel, we look at other Bollywood hotties, who are making all our worlds go round with their sensuous curves!

Huma Qureshi

Actress Huma Qureshi, who plays Mohsina in Anurag Kashyap's Gangs Of Wasseypur, had us all hooked with her Aviator shades and those thick, curly locks.

Thsi livewire makes no pretensions about her body either.

Sonakshi Sinha

Sonakshi Sinha has come a long way since her chubby teen days.

But she's still got that distinctive towering presence that is rare in Bollywood where petite frames are more common. With superhits tumbling out of her belt, her big bones are hardly a concern.

Vidya Balan

Kudos to Vidya for being so unabashed and unapologetic about her body.

After a few sartorial hiccups initially, the actress has found her groove with ornate saris and ethnic jewellery.

Parineeti Chopra

Like most other newbies, Parineeti Chopra has some rough edges that will smooth out with time and some help from a good stylist.

But her chubby frame makes her characters more endearing and relatable.

Zarine Khan

To have an angelic face is a blessing in Bollywood.

Zarine Khan is perpetually struggling to acquire a body size that meets the acceptable standard of the industry.

But it should be a breather for her that she's working at a time when curvy bodies are being celebrated.

Kareena Kapoor

After a mild obssession with size zero, Kareena Kapoor is back to being curvy and is looking like a million bucks.

Her Chammak Challo red sari had us convinced that few people can work the sari like she does.

Ameesha Patel

Bollywood's resident buxom babe is one of the few actresses who are proud of their curves and loves flaunting her assets.

We support this attitude whole-heartedly if she learns how to NOT overdo it.

Neha Dhupia

Neha Dhupia may not be the most visible or successful actress in Bollywood but the girl's got tons of sass!

The actress embraced her curves long before it became fashionable and is easily one of the best dressed actresses in the industry.

Sameera Reddy

Sameera Reddy, another big-boned actress in Bollywood, shared her experience of trying to lose weight with Oprah Winfrey when the US chat show host was in town a few months ago.
