Their perfect figures, gorgeous faces and effortless charisma, made these women ultimate bombshells. Here’s a look at the stunning divas of Bollywood who wore bikini in style.
1. Priyanka Chopra: PeeCee is truly a sea goddess when it comes to donning the two-piece garment. Her bikini avatar, be it on or off screen she perfectly nails it. This summer she was seen enjoying a beachy day with Victoria’s Secret’s model Adriana Lima in a bikini mode. Priyanka was seen flaunting her curves and her belly piercing in a hot two-piece bikini.

3. Alia Bhatt: Bubbly and vibrant Alia Bhatt appeared in a bikini in her debut movie and later in Shaandaar. Talking about her bikini scene in Shaandaar, Alia was quoted saying, “I worked very hard for a bikini body. I and Shahid used to train together in the gym. I also followed a strict diet to get a bikini body. Also, my bikini shot was not supposed to be an elaborate one. It was initially just supposed to be me in the bikini. But since I worked so hard, Vikas (Bahl) said, ‘Shot le lete hai accha wala.”
4. Katrina Kaif: The gorgeous lady celebrated ‘World Ocean Day’, June 8, in a unique way. She uploaded a video where she is seen donning a white swimsuit and swimming with a giant whale shark.
