Bollywood Apes Marilyn look


How can one forget the scene from 'The Seven Year Itch' where screen goddess Marilyn Monroe's wind-blown dress engulfs her like a halo? Down the ages, innumerable sex sirens have tried to ape the memorable scene, some with success while others ending up as hilarious gimmicks. Here’s a look at a few of them.

Dia Mirza : The wind-swept white dress and pout make Dia Mirza look alluring. She does manage to do the copy act with aplomb.

Riya Sen : Riya Sen tries her best to attempt the iconic style of Marilyn Monroe. She does look fabulous, but it’s a poor copy.

Negar Khan : Negar Khan is a confident, bold woman, and she’s not easily embarrassed! Here she takes the Monroe look a bit further, making it look crass.

Mallika Sherawat : Mallika Sherawat's got the red dress and the oomph factor and one of the few who can match up to the diva’s style.

Tanushree Dutta: Tanushree Dutta's little wavy outfit reflects her fascination with Marilyn Monroe. But golden shorts underneath the dress? Just not done!

Neetu Chandra : The picture of this glam babe's dress blowing in the wind is tantalizing, but Neetu Chandra fails to pull the Monroe act together.

Kareena Kapoor : Kareena sports an elegant, halter-neck to get the ‘right’ look. But where are those voluptuous curves, Bebo?

Divya Dutta : Divya Dutta needs to know that it’s not only the dress but Marilyn’s confidence and ethereal looks that she needs to acquire to become as iconic as her! Sorry Divya, but this one’s a no show!
