Years back when the sultry Priyanka Chopra entered the Hindi film industry, comparisons were drawn to a more dusky sex siren Bipasha Basu. Cut to Circa 2005 and the late entrant surpassed Bipasha as the tanned beauty with a middle-class mass appeal.
And while Bipasha's sex charm remains exclusive, it was hits like 'Aitraaz', 'Mujhse Shaadi Karoge', 'Don' and 'Krissh' that established Piggy Chops as a versatile actress.
With Bipasha now playing an ordinary young ambitious girl in 'Bachna Ae Haseeno', looks like she is all set to break the glass ceiling that comes with the 'sex diva' tag and beat Priyanka at her own game.
Meanwhile, Priyanka continues to once again play the hot-n-sweet girl to Sallu in 'God Tussi Great Ho' that is also releasing on the same day as 'BAH'. Now you may call it a coincidence or what, but the fact that the two leading ladies are playing similar characters does make one read between the lines.
Not just that, but with the two sexy ladies also sharing other common physical traits like long and slender legs, intense eyes and pouty lips, comparisons are only inevitable. While Bipasha has the backing of the 'Yash Raj' label and Europe's romantic locations to make her come across as a Greek goddess, Priyanka has the very handsome Sallu to create that unspoken sizzling chemistry. As to who we think will win, well, 'May the best sdamsel win this one'!
