Shruti Hassan
Shilpa Shetty

Preity Zinta
Many Bollywood buffs keep pondering as to what happened to this dimpled, bubbly babe. Zinta’s cute looks in her earlier flicks that made her a sensation across the country, but after a dose of Botox many started disliking the actress’ new avatar. Many even wished they had the Preity from the past decade back again.
The drama queen of Bollywood has been more in the news for weird experiments than her work. Similar to buxom babe, Pamela Anderson, Rakhi Sawant too tried to pull off a silicon implantation on her breasts as well as a lip and nose reconstruction. Although the bosom experiment did pay off to a certain extent, the lip and nose jobs were disasters, as you can see.
Priyanka Chopra
Priyanka, who first shot to fame after being crowned ‘Miss World’ in 2000, soon made it big in Bollywood. The actress then decided to tamper her lips and trim it, in a bid to make her pout seem more attractive. However, shelling out too many bucks on the surgery didn’t help in receiving too many praises from the fans. Interestingly, Piggy Chops has ever since been in a denial mode and has rubbished the claims that she went under the knife to get her lips re-shaped.
Minissha Lamba
The red-cheeked actress was one of the prettiest faces of Bollywood and was adored by many for her role in the movie ‘Bachna Ae Haseeno’.

Gauhar Khan
Popular page 3 celebrity Gauhar, known for her supporting roles in movies like ‘Ishaqzaade’ as well as an appearance in television reality shows such as ‘Bigg Boss’ is also not far behind her contemporaries.

Anushka Sharma
The actress has been making headlines for quite a while now for her famous ‘lip job’. Many have even criticized the actress for tampering her natural looks and resorting to surgical procedures to enhance her beauty. The diva became a heartthrob overnight because of her girl next door looks in the Shahrukh Khan starrer ‘Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi’, but her transformed face hasn’t impressed many.
Koena Mitra
Koena Mitra’s current facial features are a standing proof of the fact that a haphazard plastic surgery can spell doom, especially if you have a career related to the field of glamour. The dusky bong beauty was hot property in Bollywood, especially during the mid-2000’s, all thanks to her sensational item numbers. In a bid to look even better and woo her fans, the actress opted to go under the knife. The experiment not only misfired but played a crucial role in putting an end to Koena’s tryst in the limelight.
Kangana Ranaut
Her curly hair and unconventional looks made this girl from Himachal Pradesh an instant hit amongst Bollywood fans world over. However, even Kangana got carried away by the Botox bandwagon of B-town and decided to transform her looks through artificial methods. The actress spent a whopping amount on getting her lips shaped and breasts augmented.
Gauri Khan
The wife of the reigning King of Bollywood, superstar Shah Rukh Khan, is known for being more of a socialite and indulging in interior decoration projects. From a good-looking, simple Delhi girl, Gauri has turned out to be one of the leading consumers of Botox and nose jobs in the world of Bollywood. The surgeries have made her pout seem bigger and relatively unattractive compared to her younger self.
