Yet another decade comes to an end and as we sit on the threshold of a new decade, let’s look back at the decade and analyse which Bollywood actress has made the maximum contribution to our world of cinema.

1. Aishwarya Rai- Former Miss World and, unquestionably, one of the most beautiful woman to grace the Earth, she has got better and better as she stepped into her 30s; mesmerizing us not only with her unearthly charm but also with her mammoth talent and acting mettle that she displayed be it in a classic like ‘Devdas’ or in an ultra-modern fast-racing flick like ‘Dhoom 2’. This was thedecade that saw her not only cementing her position on the Bollywood’s throne but also wooing the global audiences with cross-border films like ‘ Bride and Prejudice’, ‘Mistress of Spices’ and ‘Pink Panther.’

2. Rani Mukherjee- Though the last phase of the decade saw her appeal plummeting with flops clinging to her despite her credible performances, the decade, overall, gave her megastardom and countless trophies as she made us sit up and take notice of her grit and flair in films like ‘Black’, ‘Bunty aur Babli’, ‘Saathiya’, ‘Hum Tum’, ‘Veer Zaara’, ‘Yuva’, ‘Chalte Chalte’ amongst many more.

3. Kareena Kapoor- The actress who had a relatively slow start to her career with flops like ‘Refugee’ and ‘Mujhe Kuch Kehna Hai’, soon catapulted to stardom, sheerly on the dent of her merit, aggressive attitude and killer-looks. She conquered all male hearts in dozens of films like ‘Ashoka’, ‘Kabhi Khushi Kabhi Gum’, ‘Tashan’ and others where she portrayed her glam avatar clad in itsy-bitsy clothes and shedding all inhibitions to reveal her naked back or trimmed legs or smooching co-stars. Even though, majority of her films flopped, she held on to the pedestal and soon ‘Jab We Met’ happened that breathed a fresh lease of life into her image and she gladly bagged the ‘Filmfare award for the BestActress.’

Now, you readers, pick your choice as to who deserves to be crowned the ‘Actress of the Decade’.
