They made their country proud when they became international faces. We're talking about the ambassadors of beauty -- the Miss Indias -- who held the country, and more often than not, the World and the Universe, captive.
While some have crashed and burned, others have managed to make a name for themselves in Bollywood. Now, they're not only famous but better looking as well.
Just compare Aishwarya Rai Bachchan in the 1994 picture on the left with that of this year's one on the right. Amazing differences, don't you agree?
Sushmita Sen
She was a skinny young thing when she won the Miss India crown and the Miss Universe title in 1994. Fourteen years and a couple of films later, Sushmita has blossomed into a gorgeous and vivacious mother of eight-year old Renee.
Gul Panag
Almost tomboyish, Gul won the crown in 1999. Today, her looks and style have undergone quite a change
Lara Dutta
If anything, Lara Dutta looks more radiant as the years go by. The actress won the Miss Universe crown as well as our hearts in 2000. Bollywood does agree with her.
Priyanka Chopra
The pretty lass may have lost the title to Lara Dutta, but she more than made up for it in the years to come. Now, the former Miss World is much sought after in Bollywood.
Dia Mirza
The year 2000 was simply amazing because India won all the top three international titles -- Lara was crowned Miss Universe, Priyanka Miss World and Dia Miss Earth. Eight years later, Dia just keeps on getting prettier.
Celina Jaitley
Celina was 21 when she won the Miss India title in 2001. Just look at her seven years later.
Neha Dhupia
A lot has happened since Neha won the Miss India title in 2002. Though most of her films haven't met with much success, the actress looks unperturbed.
Tanushree Dutta
One can hardly connect the Tanushree of 2004 with the one today. Just goes to show what a difference four years can make.
