The cover will certainly help fans appreciate the way PC has transformed herself into a global superstar over the years. Furthermore, it is bound to bring back memories.

7. Then and now: Jaya Prada is a stunner forever

SHARE
Former Bollywood actress Jaya Prada may have quit films and made her foray into politics, but the lady has made age look like a number. The stunning actress featured opposite Amitabh Bachchan, Rishi Kapoor and Jeetendra in super hit films like Sharaabi', Sargam', Sanjog' and many more and hasn't lost her charm at all. The actress, who is also a big name in Telugu cinema, is a regular at award functionss and events and can still give the new brigade a tough competition.

8. Here's how Junior Mehmood looks now

SHARE
Remember the hilarious dance act on 'Hum kaale hain toh kya hua dilwale hain...' from the movie 'Brahmachari'? The little naughty boy who imitated comic style of the great comedian Mehmood Ali is still fresh in everyone's mind. Here's how he looks now. Naeem Sayyed, popularly known as Junior Mehmood, ruled millions of hearts and received a lot of accolades from the industry. Interestingly, the name Junior Mehmood was given to him by Mehmood Ali and in the year 1972, he was nominated for National Award for B Nagireddy's 'Ghar Ghar Ki Kahani' too. Today, he produces films and performs on stage. All we can say is time just flies...

9. Check out a young Varun Dhawan in this old Bournvita ad

SHARE
There is no denying that Varun Dhawan can steal a million hearts with his charm and charisma, and no wonder he has a million women going weak in their knees at a mere sight of him. But have you seen Varun when he was a kid? There are a few Bollywood celebrities who had done TV commercials as a child actor and one of them is 'Dishoom' actor Varun Dhawan. Yes! Varun did a Bournvita ad when he was a kid. In fact, the handsome hunk, also did commercials like Colgate and Haathi Cement back then. David Dhawan being a filmmaker kept Varun away from Bollywood films and never wanted him to debut in Bollywood as a child actor. However, we came across this adorable picture of him from this Bournvita commercial and we must say he is just unrecognizable. But one thing we cannot deny that Varun was absolutely adorable as a kid. What do you think guys?

10. 'Nagin' actress Yogeeta Bali: Then and now

Actor Sahil Khan along with Sharman Joshi acted in the comedy movie 'Style' and also in its sequel 'Excuse Me'. He then entertained the audience in movies like 'Double Cross', 'Aladdin', 'Rama: The Saviour' and 'The Great Khali'. However, the actor has been staying away from the limelight for the past few years and has got himself busy with his own business. However, he was caught by some shutterbugs at the screening of Irrfan Khan's 'Madaari' and we must say the actor has maintained his physique perfectly. There was no difference between the Sahil Khan who we saw in 'Style' 15 years back and the one whom we saw now. Keep it up Sahil!

12. Rahul Khanna's childhood picture will leave you puzzled

SHARE
Rahul Khanna may have done very few films like Wake Up Sid' and Earth' which can be counted on fingertips, but the actor can boast about a huge, loyal fan following. However, the actor who can make the ladies go weak in their knees with his single glimpse and ageless looks, was far from his gentleman image during his childhood. Like any other child, Rahul was also sporty and unpolished, unaware of his good looks. Well, that's history for sure!

13. Then and now: 'Border' actress Sharbani Mukerjee

SHARE
If you are a lover of patriotic Bollywood movies, it isn't possible you haven't watched JP Dutta's Border'. Remember Sunil Shetty's beautiful bride in the film who becomes pregnant and waits for her husband Bhairon Singh, who sacrifices his life in the war?
