Deepika Padukone and Bollywood Actresses on Twitter

CNN.com has an article up about the incredible rise of Bollywood actress Deepika Padukone.
I didn't realize her path to stardom was so humble, but in reading this, I think in the future, the life of Deepika might actually make a good film itself.

"After deciding to become a model at the age of 16, she was picked out of a music video by acclaimed director Farah Khan and cast in her next film opposite Shahrukh Khan. "Om Shanti Om" went on to become not only a hit in India, but also gained wider acclaim among western audiences."

I mentioned awhile back about Bollywood actress Mallika Sherawat using her Twitter account, but I really had no idea so many Bollywood beauties used Twitter.
Besides Mallika, Aishwarya Rai, Preity Zinta, Bipasha Basu, Madhuri Dixit and Ayesha Takia all have Twitter accounts, among others.
You should be able to find their accounts with a Twtter Search.

Kareena Kapoor, Madhuri Dixit and Mallika Sherawat

Bollywood actress Kareena Kapoor is featured on Maxim magazine on it's cover.
Kareena is getting a lot of press lately, including the fact that she was on Filmfare Magazine’s “most powerful women” list.
Kareena has also told the press that she's putting marriage on the back burner to pursue her career.


And Madhuri Dixit has sparked a controversy, but not intentionally.
There's a lake in Arunachal Pradesh called Tsho-nga Tser that the locals began to refer to as " Madhuri " after Shah Rukh Khan and Madhuri Dixit shot Koyla there.
The locals seem to be more than a little upset that their lake is being renamed by outsiders.


And finally, Bollywood beauty Mallika Sherawat has signed to make a film called “Female Barack Obama”, which is based on San Francisco Attorney General Kamala Harris.
Mallika is in LA of the post production of her film "Hisss" and has been burning up Twitter while shes been there.
Mallika is one of the most followed Bollywood personalities on Twitter with over 6000 fans.
She's even set to make a side trip to Twitter HQ on July 14th.

Riya Sen in Zor Laga ke Haiya

Bollywood actress Riya Sen is getting a lot of press for her new role in the upcoming Hindi film "Zor Laga ke Haiya".
Riya has discarded her sultry glamorous look to take on the role of a construction worker named Chamki.
The movie is directed by Girish Joshi and is about an egotistical award winning sculptor (played by Mithun Chakraborthy) who can not adjust to the times he is living in.
Riya plays a Marathi girl that works as a construction worker.
Besides Riya and Mithun, the movie also stars Mahesh Manjrekar, Seema Biswas, Megan, Ayesha Kaduskar, Hardik Thakkar, Ritvik Tyagi and Ashwin Chitale.
"Zor Laga ke Haiya" will be released sometime in May of this year.
