Bollywood Cover Girls

The covers of magazines are usually clad with models. But more and more magazines are including actresses in these photo spreads and it's not a surprise to see one on the cover. Many Bollywood actresses are known to have come to acting via modeling, so it's even less shocking when they're seen on a big name magazine. We have picked out 5 covers that have featured some of the most successful woman in the film industry.

Check out the list below and tell us which cover girl is your favorite.

Not too long ago, Freida Pinto was on the March cover Vogue India. While some may argue that she doesn't look her best on the cover, there's no denying that her meteoric rise to fame has catapulted her to become a fashion idol of sorts. Every time she is seen out at an award show or party, the next day fashionistas are buzzing about what she was wearing.

Priyanka Chopra looks oh so fashionable on the cover of this month's Grazia Magazine! She shows off three different looks on three different covers, just in time for spring! The fashion magazine features 3 different cover pages that the Miss Chopra is on!

It was about a year ago that Katrina Kaif was looking downright sexy on Maxim Magazine.

Kareena Kapoor was ready for spring on last month's issue of Harper's Bazaar India. She was a fresh sight in the soft pink dress.

On the November 2008 issue of Jade Magazine, Deepika Padukone was a mixture of fierce and beautiful.
So we want to know what our readers think about each of the beautiful women we chose for our list.

We want to know which one of these women looked the best on their magazine cover and why? Is it their outfits, their make-up or just the confidence that makes them the hottest of them all?

Katrina Kaif and Freida Pinto - Global Beauties on the Forefront

The International spotlight is on Katrina Kaif and Freida Pinto. These prominent beauties have swept up two major international campaigns. Katrina Kaif is excited to work with Matel as the new face of Barbie. Freida Pinto, who has already taken strides to global stardom, will take her strut from the runway to the big screen on to Estee Lauder's new campaign.

Matel has been looking to India to further globalize the iconic Barbie. Before Katrina Kaif agreed to the deal, Matel asked Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and Genelia D'Souza. Both actresses declined, but Katrina Kaif was thrilled. The Barbie doll, which turned 50 on March 23rd has featured the likeness of other international celebrity faces including Diana Ross, Cher, and Beyonce.

Every girl at some point in time in her childhood has played with a Barbie doll and wanted to be just like a Barbie doll, and so have I. She makes a sweet, fun and lively companion," said Katrina Kaif to Brit-Asian Magazine. Matel not only found a new face for the Barbie, they are breaking ground. Katrina Kaif is the first Indian to be made into a Barbie. Matel also worked beside Indian designers to reveal a new line at Lakme India Fashion Week 2009.

Freida Pinto is now Bollywood's highest paid actress in history, reportedly drawing in a £200,000 for the Estee Lauder campaign. In the past the campaign has featured Liz Hurley and currently has Gwyneth Paltrow on board. It has been rumored that Gwyneth Paltrow is worried about being pushed to the side by up and coming Bollywood actress Freida Pinto.

This is the fourth time that an international cosmetic brand has promoted an Indian actress. Previous Indian actresses featured have been Diana Hayden for L'Oreal Paris, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan also for L'Oreal Paris, and Ujjwala Raut for YSL. Freida Pinto 's management wants her to be a global star, it looks like she's doing a pretty good job. She's been seen on glamorous magazine covers like Vogue, Elle, Cosmopolitan, and Maxim and there is hype that she may be the next Bond girl.

What do you think is next for Katrina Kaif and Freida Pinto? How do you feel about these stars going global?
