Madhuri Dixit comes straight to the thinking minds whenever we trouble ourselves over the face behind that smiling assassin. Even the late Madhubala whispers into our ears with her million dollar smile that had the entire nation drooling over her hypnotic charm. But, amongst the current rooster of actors, I have picked up the two ruling ladies: Katrina Kaif, the Princess of Popcorn and Aishwarya Rai, the beauty personified.
1. Katrina Kaif: With a complexion as milky as the resplendent moon, her toothy smile gives her an electric look. When she smiles, her eyes narrow to mere slits as men find themselves getting forlorn behind that oozing sex appeal. No wonder, hunks like Salman and Ranbir have been mesmerized by that brilliant spark behind her lips.
2. Aishwarya Rai: She has carried the mettle of the world’s most beautiful woman for close to two decades. From Salman to Abhishek (with a Vivek in between) have fallen preys to those predatory eyes that lighten up when her lips split into a curve. Her killer smile, undoubtedly, adds to her lightning bolt beauty often transporting the male voyeurs into a world of fantasy and dreamy imagination.
So, dear readers, think and vote and be impartial. It’s a battle between Ash and Kat.

1. Madhubala- The little girl who debuted with Basant(1942), sprang to stardom with her mystifying performance in Mahal(1949). Rightly compared with the sex-bomb Marilyn Monroe, Madhubala’s beauty was unearthly. Her milky-white complexion & bulb-like radiant eyes had a hypnotic effect on the spectators. After Howrah Bridge & Chalti ka Naam Gaadi(1958), she immortalized the character of Anaarkali in Mughal-e-Azam. Even 4 decades after her demise, fans remember her mystifying smile with her posters still selling hot on Indian streets.

2. Sharmila Tagore- The Bengali sweet-dish dazzled up the silver-screen in the 70’s with her bold but gorgeously graceful portrayals. The sexy-siren dimpled girl pioneered the bikini culture in Bollywood as she sizzled in a skimpy one-piece in An Evening in Paris.

3. Madhuri Dixit- She broke zillions of hearts when she sailed off to Florida & tied the knot with a cardiac surgeon. The true diva of the 90’s, she was a sorceress and had the uncanny ability to disarm her audience with her smile-of-the-millennium.

Most new-age actresses wouldn’t mind being compared to Bollywood Diva, Aishwarya Rai but Salman Khan’s girlfriend and one of the top actresses of today, Katrina Kaif has an objection.

Katrina has replaced Salman’s ex Aishwarya Rai in most of her commercials. Interestingly when she was asked if she was as big as Ash in Bollywood, forget reverting, Katrina showed as if she didn’t care. But when she was compared to legendary yesteryear actress Madhubala she took it sportingly.

Being humble to the new comparison, Katrina replied, “There can’t be any comparisons between Madhubala and Katrina. She was unique in her own way. Madhubala is my favourite and I think she was the most beautiful woman in the world. I don’t think I can match even one per cent of what she was.”
