Saif Ali Khan, Ram Kapoor and Riteish Deshmukh In Humshakals
Next up, we have the trio featuring Ram, Riteish and Saif who wore a waitress’ outfit in a film and gave the viewers a LOL time. On a frank note, the three celebs looked quite seductive in loud makeup and mini dresses.
Ajay Devgn In Golmaal
Ajay Devgn is one of a kind in Bollywood who is known to choose roles which are serious and on the masculine side. But as they say, if the script demands something, even the toughest man needs to go the soft way.
Salman Khan In Jaan-E-Mann
Well, we were quite surprised to see the Bhaijaan of Bollywood decked in a sleevesless gown in the film Jaan-E-Maan. Even though for a few minutes, the Being Human star snatched the limelight from the lead actress, Preity Zinta with his woman-ish stint.
Govinda in Aunty No 1
The King of comedy, Govinda is a class star. It was in the year 1998, when the actor opted for a woman’s look and played the role of an ‘aunty’ with quite consistency. But the highlight of the film was Kader Khan and ChiChi shaking their booties to Ke Aayi Ab Aunty Ki Baari song.
Kamal Haasan In Chachi 420
Fans loved his act as a big old lady in the movie Chachi 420. Yes, you guessed it right, we are talking about none other than, Kamal Haasan. Right from his comic timings to even from his screen presence, everything was in place. This film was a desi remake of Robin Williams' Mrs Doubtfire.
Aamir Khan In Baazi
This can come quite as a shocker but yes Aamir Khan also has turned himself into a girl for an entire song in Baazi (1995). Even though the actor wore a dazzling gown, pretty shoes and makeup, he however did not look convincing like a woman. Sorry Mr. Perfectionist!
