What's a year-end without some sizzle and bang? Event managers realise this only too well and that explains the presence of star-filled shows to ring in the New Year.

With 2011 just around the corner, Bollywood's hottest stars are in demand like never before. What is it about these shows that make them so irresistible? Is it the tempting remuneration or the idea of regaling enthusiastic fans? Whatever it is, there's no denying star-led events regardless of exorbitantly-priced tickets are a huge draw.

Given the choice, who'd you put your money on? Take a look at some of the leading contenders and cast your vote.

Malaika Arora-Khan

She may have never really pursued a full-fledged acting career but there's no denying her popularity when it comes to show-stopping item numbers.

Plus, this year Malaika has the biggest chartbuster, Munni Badnaam Hui (Dabangg) to her credit. Let's Chaiyya Chaiyya to that, what say?

Katrina Kaif

If there's a mention of Munni, can Sheila be behind? The all new Katrina with her LCD flat tummy and recently acquired belly dancing skills is quite understandably the sexiest lady in Bollywood and beyond.

Give it up for the real Tees Maar Khan.

Mallika Sherawat

Her Hisss may have gone phoosss at the box office but Bollywood's sassy sex symbol is quite the livewire when it comes to shaking her booty.

Remember Mani Ratnam's Guru?

Bipasha Basu

Despite a de-glam avatar in Lamhaa and action-packed role in Roland Joffe's Singularity, the Bong bombshell of glitzy fare like Bachna Ae Haseeno, Race and Dhoom 2 knows her fans can't get enough of her seductive moves and oomph.

How about an encore, Bips?

Priyanka Chopra

Trust Leggy Chops to create mass hysteria with her seductive moves and luscious smile. The Saat Khoon Maaf babe has quite a few hit songs to groove on.

Take your pick from Dostana's Desi Girl, Don's Aaj Ki Raat, Anjaana Anjaani's title track to Kaminey's Raat Ke Dhaai Baje.

Deepika Padukone

This year saw Deepika in abundance with five successive releases. Her ice reserve too was swapped for a decidedly saucy and self-assured version.

All that remains is to see how the gorgeous model-turned-Bollywood A-lister handles a live crowd.

Kareena Kapoor

Like her sister Karisma, Kareena, too, has the reputation of being a terrific dancer. Every time Bebo steps on the stage, she owns it.

How do you feel about the sprightly star gyrating to her popular numbers like Mauja hi mauja (Jab We Met), It's rocking (Kya Love Story Hai), Zoobi doobi (3 Idiots), Tu saala (Golmaal Returns) or Marjaani (Billu)?

Rakhi Sawant

Looking for some heavy-duty drama and no-holds barred raunchiness? Rakhi Sawant is your girl.

It may be recalled how her voluptuous jhatkas in big bannered flicks like Krazzy 4 and Dil Bole Hadippa made quite a few heads turn.

Salman Khan

If there's one guy who can hold his own against these curvaceous beauties, it's the star behind super hits like Wanted and Dabangg.

Salman's self-styled personality, whimsical dance steps and ability to keep an audience -- live or studio, in splits or surprise make him ideal for onstage showmanship.
