Bootilicious in Bollywood

International reality TV star Kim Kardashian was recently polled to have the best ‘bum’ in showbiz, beating the likes of bootilicious babes including Jennifer Lopez and Beyonce. DNA checked out with a celebrity panel across society, fitness, fashion and advertising as to who they think have the best derrieres among our desi brigade...

Queenie Singh (socialite):
Malaika Arora Khan for sure. We are yet to see a butt that can beat hers — perfectly curvaceous and au natural. As for the men, it’ll have to be John Abraham. Not many have managed to draw such a lot of eyeballs to theirs.

Deanne Pandey (fitness instructor):
Lara Dutta and Malaika Arora Khan have the best butt in showbiz — extremely well-toned yet feminine. As for the men, it’s Dino Morea and John, undoubtedly.

Prahlad Kakkar (adman):
Malaika is a given. But Priyanka Chopra too has a sexy derriere, and so does Urvashi Sharma. As for men, it’s John. Dino Morea, the closest next, while Ranbir Kapoor fits the cute category. Good butts have a mind of their own, and theirs, definitely, qualify.

Anita Dongre (fashion designer):
I have a big butt myself, so I’m primarily a Jennifer Lopez fan. Big is sexy and among the desi, I’d pick Malaika Arora Khan. I’m not really a butt watcher when it comes to guys, but I’d pick John Abraham. He is a kind and polite gentleman, so a nice butt is like an added advantage for him.

Sharmilla Khanna (event organiser):
Malaika of course! Even Kareena Kapoor has a shapely butt. As for men, it’s hard to find one better than John’s, but Ranbir too has a nice butt.

Shilpa Shetty and Katrina Kaif have gorgeous derrieres and in men, I think John and Ranbir have the best butts.
