PIX: Hottest pin-up girls of our times!

Presenting the first in a series of four lists of sexy sirens that make us sweat under the collar.

Pamela Anderson was the stuff that Indian men's dreams were made of. Back in the day when Doordarshan telecast family soaps that ran at snail's pace, Pam in her red swimsuit probably made television viewing such a pleasure!

Almost two decades later, as the hottie steps into the Bigg Boss house, we take a look at some of the contemporary pin-up girls -- sexy sirens who make us weak in our knees.

Mallika Sherawat

She may not have belted out a single hit film and may have had barely one-and-a-half bit role in that forgettable Jackie Chan movie. But that rarely stops us from having wet dreams of Mallika Sherawat, does it?

Be it facing the camera dressed in little else but a whip or tweeting like a maniac on a death row, Mallika Sherawat's chutzpah doesn't just make her endearing but also one you'd like to go to bed looking at!

Her film's crew called her 'dumb as a rock'. But let's accept it, unless you are blind as a bat, there is no way in hell you would not have noticed this heavenly body called Megan Fox.

The sexy 24-year-old sure knows she's hot and makes little or no bones about it.

Remember that scene in Transformers where she goes on to fix Shia LaBeouf's rundown car? We wanted to be that car!

There was no one in Bollywood who we wanted more desperately to see in a bikini than Bipasha Basu.

Much to our delight, the sexy star of course obliged in Dhoom 2 -- the scene if we may say was the only one worth watching in that entire movie.

But what really puts her on the map with women ten years her juniour is that immensely (ahem) educative workout DVD of hers where Bipasha showed just how she got that desirablly sculpted figure.

Watch it  in slo-mo!

What do we say about the Queen Bee?

From being an absolute nobody in that disastrous debut called Boom to being a star topping all the 'hottest women' polls in the country, Katrina Kaif sure has come a long way.

The hottie who can carry off a pink miniskirt (Singh is Kinng) as seductively as a sari (Tees Mar Khan) apparently isn't very good at Hindi.

But then again who cares? We like our pin-ups to not speak at all!

There are yummy mummies and there is Malaika Arora Khan.

The hot-as-hell item girl and mom has been making us sweat under our collars right from the time she danced atop a train in Dil Se down to the day she posed in a black lace bikini in Maxim and most recently shook her booty in Dabangg.

Now name one other mom who could do that!

Sameera Reddy cannot really boast of an hourglass figure that most of her contemporaries do. But from that girl-next-door role she played out in a music video over a decade ago Sameera has evolved into something of a sex goddess.

The hottie is just as comfortable wearing a bikini and leather bodysuit as she is wearing a simple sari. That, we suppose, makes her even more endearing, doesn't it?
