10 Indian actresses whose fame could be the envy of Hollywood

However, the Indian film industry produces a thousand films a year, and the popularity of some artists noticeably exceeds the fame of Hollywood stars.

Priyanka Chopra

Curiously enough, it was not her film roles that made the actress world famous, but her unexpected friendship with Meghan Markle. And only after that the world was surprised to see in "Miss World 2000" a gorgeous actress with dozens of pictures under her belt, including a remake of the famous "Baywatch".

And given the fact that Priyanka is also a model and singer, and has time to do charity work, her popularity has long gone beyond Bollywood.

Tamannaah Bhatia

Making her film debut as a 15-year-old teenager, the actress quickly made a name for herself with her performances in "Happy Days" (2007), "A Little Joy, A Little Sadness" and "The Elusive Ayan" (2009), "The Chase" (2010), "100% love" (2011) and others.

She has several prestigious film awards to her credit and still has the doors of all Bollywood film studios open. And in the future, maybe not only him.

Aishwarya Rai

One of the most famous women in India, she, like many actresses, started with the catwalk, was "Miss World", flashed on the covers of famous glossy magazines.

But then she felt that she felt constricted in the modeling business, and decided to try her hand at cinema. It worked, and how indeed. Now she has almost fifty pictures, the most famous of which are "The Princess of spices" and "Pink Panther-2.

Anushka Sharma

There are very few actresses in India who can match Anushka in terms of royalties and prestigious awards in the film world. Her career began only a dozen years ago, and she has already managed to try herself in a variety of genres: from romantic comedies to psychological thrillers. And, it seems, is not going to stop.

Deepika Padukone

It is rumored that there is not enough room in this actress' house for awards, trophies and all sorts of statuettes that she gets for almost every role she plays.

Born in Denmark, who moved to India as a child, Deepika always saw herself as a celebrity. And achieved this goal. Russian viewers know the actress primarily for the film "Three X's: World domination", where Deepika played in a pair with Vin Diesel.

Frida Pinto

Freida Pinto has been called the most "Hollywood" of Bollywood actresses. Unlike most of her colleagues, she takes not quantity but quality. Her filmography has not so many works. But these have gone far beyond Bollywood.

Are there moviegoers who have not heard of the pictures "Rise of the Planet of the Apes", "Immortals" well, and, of course, "Slumdog Millionaire"?

Amala Paul

Amala Paul successfully worked on the catwalk and did not even think about an acting career. But the request of one of the directors to play a small role forced her to radically change her life and career.

That Amala did not take a risk for nothing, finally became clear after her huge success in the melodrama "Mynaa" in 2010. For the role of a naive village beauty, she won the title of best actress.

Now the celebrity has three dozen films under her belt, the most significant of which are "For Brother's Sake" (2012), "Run, Baby, Run" (2012), "Naayak", "Nimirndhu Nil" and "Velaiyilla Pattathari" (2014).

Kangana Ranaut

The perky Kangana Ranaut has literally "carved out" a career for herself in Bollywood. A girl from a poor town, she came to conquer Delhi at the age of 16 and managed to prove herself as a model. But the ambitious girl wanted more, however, for an acting career she had one big disadvantage - problems with diction.

However, even here Kangana managed to get rid of the defect, and given her looks and talent, there are few people in Bollywood today who wouldn't want to see her in their films.

Sonam Kapoor

The representative of the respected acting dynasty in India, Kapoor managed not to remain in the shadow of her famous relatives, and made her own name, and not only in the movies.

Sonam attracts the world not only for his talent, but also the ability to dress tastefully. Kapoor is so popular in America, even singer Beyonce once invited her to star in one of her videos.

Asin

Like most of today's Indian stars and starlets, Asin began her road to fame as a teenager, went through the modeling business and found her calling in the film industry.

Among her two dozen films, the best known are "Overcome Yourself" (2005), "Bully" (2007), "Ten Avatars" and "Hajini" (2008).

And although at one point the actress left her career to devote more time to her young daughter and husband, interest in her from viewers has not subsided. Everyone eagerly awaits her return and new works. Such love of people for Bollywood actresses can easily become the envy of many Hollywood beauties.
