Priyanka Chopra's sexy cop routine in the item number Mumbai Ke Hero failed to avert the disaster Apoorva Lakhia's Zanjeer remake turned out to be.

On the bright side, Ms Exotic sure served as the perfect eye candy in her body hugging play on a cop uniform.

The gorgeous Esha Gupta donned the uniform as Rhea Menon in Prakash Jha's Chakravyuh, an IPS officer who is married to the film's protagonist -- Arjun Rampal's Adil Khan.

Neetu Kapoor, who delivered a stellar performance as a harrowed middle class homemaker in Do Dooni Char, reunites with husband Rishi in Abhinav Kashyap's Besharam, costarring son Ranbir.

As head constable Bulbul Chautala, she brings plausibility to her role.

Bipasha Basu's tough cop Prabha in Gunaah was quite a departure from the overly glamorous roles she figured in in the early days of her career.

Unfortunately, the film didn't work at the box office.
