Bollywood Surprise

Look what I found when I was browsing through my copy of A Century of Thai Cinema the other day. I totally forgot that I had placed these two Bollywood actress prints between the pages of the book late last year in order get the curl out of them. I love surprises like this!

I've only dipped my toe in the vast ocean of Indian cinema (thanks to the nudging of my friend Todd), but it was enough to convince me that I could easily devote myself to the Hindi films of the 1950s and 60s — that is, if I weren't so stuck on Hong Kong movies.

Nevertheless, I think you will agree that the Bollywood stars of that era were just as beautiful and glamorous as those of Hong Kong. Click on the links below the pictures for more information about the actresses.
