FIT FOR A 4 1 1

QUEEN

As we enjoy Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s
magnanimous production Padmaavat, we can’t
help but remember these Bollywood actresses for
their iconic and commendable royal roles.
7th Edition

1 AISHWARYA RAI BACHCHAN AS MAHARANI 2

JODHAA BAI
With barely-there-makeup and heavy traditional jewellery by
Tanishq, Aishwarya gave us a realistic glimpse of the beautiful 3
queen in Jodhaa Akbar (2008). The wedding ensemble was the most JUNE 9th &10th
diffi cult to carry, as it weighed around 3.5 kilogrammes, but despite
the weight, Aishwarya remained the epitome of grace and beauty. 2018

2 DEEPIKA PADUKONE AS MASTANI
Deepika not only appeared regally royal in Bajirao Mastani (2015),
but also strong and fearless with minimal makeup and free-fl owing
hair. Anju Modi designed her outfi ts with lots of layers to give
them an anarkali look. Even when wearing 20 kilogrammes of
armour, Deepika looked her traditional best.
3 KARISMA KAPOOR AS ZUBEIDAA 4 SONAM KAPOOR AS RAJKUMARI MAITHILI DEVI

Sonam slays as a royal princess in Prem Ratan Dhan Payo (2015). Sporting
It’s been more than a decade, but moviegoers still remember one of
Karisma’s best performances onscreen. Her role as queen Zubeidaa
paired with ethnic sets, the actress wonderfully carried off the role.
(2001) was critically lauded at the time, even by fashion critics who colourful lehengas and traditional sarees designed by Anamika Khanna,
praised her traditional Rajput clothing and meticulously-styled hair.
