Rakhi's attitude is: Love me or hate me, you will notice me!
Her frankness is a refreshing change from the sea of pretention that sometimes threatens to drown Indian cinema.
A Mumbaikar through and through, she's worked her way from the ground floor up to the top, becoming one of the few item girls to achieve household name status. She began as an unknown, but continued working on her image and her looks, before bursting onto the scene as a contestant on Big Boss and Nach Baliye.
A recent advertisement shows Rakhi bathing in a tub of red hot chillis. A little superfluous, don't you think, Ms Sawant? The whole of India knows you're hot!
So who do you think deserves to be on this list? And who doesn't? Post your picks on the messageboard below!
