Malaika, Karisma, Tabu: Getting hotter with age!

Last updated on: October 14, 2014 19:15 IST

These gorgeous veterans will make all your age-related anxieties away!

Ageing gracefully is an art form few people strive to master. But the ones who do are a sight to behold.

Time obviously does not matter for these ladies -- they look just as gorgeous, if not more -- and it makes us want to skip right ahead to middle age!

Watch and learn.

Malaika Arora Khan

 

This onscreen stunner has been hailed a hottie right from the time she emerged as a model.

But looking at this radical transformation over the years, even you'd feel grateful that she shed the tacky 1990s bling look for the chic elegance she so effortlessly exudes now, just a few days short of turning 41 later this month.

Karisma Kapoor

 

Isn't Karisma Kapoor's current look -- with glossy hair, nude makeup and minimalist designer clothes -- a serious upgrade from her Anari days? 

Sridevi

 

The present-day Sridevi is distinctly different from her former self. The Chaalbaaz hitmaker is quite the diva in her designer best, both on and off screen/ramp these days.  

Tabu

 

Who knew the young and awkward Tabu (seen here in her debut film Prem) would grow into the divine beauty she is today?

Her social appearances are events in themselves.

Aishwarya Rai Bachchan

 

And here we have the breathtaking Aishwarya Rai Bachchan.

This widely regarded beauty has cleaned up well over the years too, if you compare her Jeans days to her Cannes persona.

Shilpa Shetty

 

Big hair, loud makeup and the thick nose have been replaced by all-round awesomeness in the case of Shilpa Shetty.

You slick city girl, you.

Bipasha Basu

 

The slightly frumpy and rather confused style of Bipasha Basu has given way to a more self-assured and decidedly fitter version of her, over a decade on.

Madhuri Dixit

 

The 1990s Madhuri Dixit (from Saajan) seems to be doffing her hat to her future self.

That 100-watt smile has got more power now!

Twinkle Khanna

 

And here is the queen bee of stylish star wives and former actress Twinkle Khanna.

After a lacklustre turn on the big screen (she's seen here in Mela), this sassy soon-to-be 40-year-old shines the brightest in the galaxy of star wives in Bollywood with her tasteful outfits, elegant accessories, and dignified demeanour.
