Vidya Balan in ‘Kahaani’
Vidya Balan is known for being the most unconventional actress of B-Town. Be it her role in 'Dirty Picture' or her Monjulika act in 'Bhool Bhulaiyaa', the lady has impressed us all. Even in her film 'Kahaani', Vidya transformed herself to be a pregnant lady. Even for the promotions, Vidya carried a prosthetic belly so that she could highlight her character from the film.
Bhumi Pednekar in ‘Dum Laga Ke Haisha’
Bhumi Pednekar had an amazing start to her Bollywood career as she dared to challenge the usual norm of an actress being slim and trim. The daring lady had to put on kilos for her character in 'Dum Laga Ke Haisha' and audiences absolutely loved her!
Priyanka Chopra in ‘Mary Kom’
Definitely, it's no layman's job to be Mary Kom, but Priyanka Chopra did it very well. At least she managed to perfectly fit into Mary Kom's character in her film 'Mary Kom'. Rigorous physical training for approximately 45 days helped her built up a physique like that of a boxer and the result was commendable.
Priyanka Chopra in ‘Barfi’
Anurag Basu's film 'Barfi' was a superhit for two reasons, one for the interesting storyline and second for the amazing star cast. Priyanka Chopra played the role of Jhilmil Chatterjee, an autistic girl who finds love in a deaf and mute kidnapper of hers, played by Ranbir Kapoor.
Vidya Balan in ‘Dirty Picture’
Vidya Balan was most praised for her performance in 2011's release 'The Dirty Picture'. For a change, an actress was applauded for putting on weight and not being shy about it, rather than being criticised her for being healthy.
Aishwarya Rai in ‘Sarbjit’
In 'Sarbjit', Aishwarya Rai Bachchan will be seen essaying the role of Late Sarbjit Singh's sister Dalbir Kaur who fought for years to unite her brother with his home country. Aishwarya has not only sported a de-glam avatar in the film, but she has also adapted to persona of a lady who is way older than her real age.
Who says only male actors go any lengths to be perfect for their roles? Bollywood actresses are no less when it comes to putting their best foot forward for their respective roles. Even if it means that they have shed off extra kilos, put on extra kilos or don some fancy costumes for the same, our Bollywood actresses do everything possible to be appropriate for their roles.
