The stunners of yester years

Bollywood in the past also had some stunning beauties who took the viewers’ breath away on screen and off screen. They came from humble backgrounds with nothing but their good looks to recommend them for the leading roles they were offered often on the spot by directors who saw potential in them to become stars. They did not have to go through the dubious process of auditioning which has become a must today for new entrants. They were chosen for their attractiveness and were groomed by the directors to face the cameras and act.
