Nowadays, a female’s belly button seems to be grabbing more male attention than her curves. That’s the situation in Bollywood where many of the sensuous babes have already said goodbye to their curves.

Welcome the new crop of actresses with vital stats 31-23-31 and forget the outdated and out-of-shape 36-24-36. Kareena Kapoor, the trailblazer of size-zero fad in India, admits that occasionally she does feel like putting on some extra kilos but resists the temptation because being a fashion icon she has to remain lean and sexy.

Not just Kareena, other Bolly babes like Sonam Kapoor or Deepika Padukone possess killer, slender figures.

The fabulous Lara Dutta who was already in good shape also had to work hard to acquire a bod that looks sensuous in bikini. With this recent trend, fashion designers are happy too.

Designer Shahid Aamir was quoted as saying, “Today’s girls are a dream to dress. They’ve got bodies of international fashion standards and lend themselves naturally to the latest designs. What is more, none of them put on weight through the making of a film? So a designer doesn’t have to rush back and forth with alterations.”
