Gayatri Joshi in swimsuitWait a minute, isn't she the actress of the movie Swades? Yeah the same one, who was saree clad throughout the movie and was never to be seen again. Well, now you know that before she did that movie, she was a model, and was one of the final five candidates in the 1999 Femina Miss India beauty pageant, and was crowned Sony Entertainment Chania-voted by viewers, and was chosen to represent India at the 2000 Miss International event in Japan.Lara Dutta

She has also had a great run in her love life ;) After dating Derek Jeter (a pro-baseballe player in US) she is now engaged to Mahesh Bhupathi.Mihika Verma

Parvathy Omanakuttan in a red hot BikiniMiss India 2008 winner, Parvathy Omanakuttan went on to represent India at Miss World but was rather unfairly placed second when frankly she didn't even deserve to be in top 5. But once in top 3, she should have been placed first but somehow managed only second. Ok, you didn't get the mumbo jumbo, right? Well, just enjoy the red hot bikini photo and forget about it...Diana Hayden
