Here is the second batch! 😉

1. Aishwarya's Hospital Visits

From the time the news of her pregnancy got out, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan took up a lot of news space as well as the readers' attention.

As the new mother readied herself for the epic event, readers grew more and more curious about the goings-on.

2. Some Like It Wet

Bathroom has served as a very promising location for amorous characters in many a Hindi film. And not without reason.

As we looked back at some of the popular sequences from several films, readers were more than happy to revisit drenched actresses frolicking with their leading men in the confines of the sexy setting.

3. Ash and Aby's Baby

It pretty much goes without saying at this point that Ash and her baby took up maximum space in the news with readers keen to know every little development.

And so when the mommy got her fuzzy bundle of joy home, it was kind of a big deal too.

4. Shooting Star

No prizes for guessing why this babe was the most googled celeb in India.

The Indo-Canadian po*n star, who recently got evicted from the Bigg Boss 5 house, contributed to the show's TRP ratings in a big way and readers couldn't get enough of her.

5. Bigg Boss Brouhaha

Bigg Boss returned with its fifth season with a renewed interest from its fans and loyalists.

Everybody wanted to know what the house would be like and who the contestants were going to be.

6. Year Of The Pretty Young Things

Many pretty debutants featured in films -- from much hyped Nargis Fakhri opposite Ranbir Kapoor in Rockstar to a relatively less talked about Ariadna Cabrol in Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara.

Audiences were equally excited about their foray.

7. Bold And Beautiful

It seems like ages ago when a fuller Katrina Kaif nonchalantly takes off her shirt and buries Gulshan Grover's face in her bosom.

Come to think of it, it seems more implausible than a distant memory. So we went back to other instances when mainstream actresses went down similar paths.

8. When A New Ameesha Surfaced

Starlet Ameesha Yadav decided to ride the anti-corruption Anna Hazare wave like scores of other Indians but with a twist.

She starred in a movie based on the hot topic and, here's the clincher, posed nude in it.

Whether it fit within the plot is anybody's guess. But who wanted to fret over that?

9. Deepika's Dum Maaro Dum Act

Deepika Padukone sure did her homework when she was summoned to do a hot item number in Rohan Sippy's Dum Maaro Dum.

The results are here for everyone to see.

10. Red Hot Sirens

Red was the favoured colour by Bollywood belles when it came to social appearances in 2011.

Readers and fans couldn't agree more.

Third batch! 😃

Here's presenting the third batch in the special five-part series of the most popular 50 Rediff Movies stories from last year.

1. Telugu Titillation

What do you get when Telugu actresses and water bodies meet?

If we are to go by the number of hits this story about Telugu film hotties frolicking in water, we can say plenty of scintillating visuals!

2. Revisiting Yesteryear Charm

Don't we all just love taking occasional trips down menory lane?

Readers were clearly delighted when we featured yesteryear female stars and what they look like now

3. The Original Item Girl

There was renewed interest in the late southern siren Silk Smitha when Milan Luthria's biopic The Dirty Picture hit the marquee last month.

Readers wanted to know everything about the iconic yet somewhat enigmatic item girl.

4. Year Of The Rockstar

Bollywood welcomed its first Jim Morrison-like film character with open arms and so did the fans.

When Imtiaz Ali's Rockstar opened on Friday, November 11, readers rushed to see what the critics had to say about one of the most awaited films of the year.

5. The Calendar Girl

Starlet Kashmera Shah spiced things up early on in the year when she released her ultra raunchy calendar featuring her in various states of semi-nudity.

Let's just say that it got the response Kashmera must have hoped for.

Image: Kashmera Shah

6. Caught In Rough Weather

Pankaj Kapur's directorial debut showed great promise and was constantly in the news ever since it went on the floors.

Unfortunately, the seasoned actor failed to replicate his acting success with his directing skills. Elsewhere, lead actor Shahid Kapoor's fake moustache and Sonam's poor acting skills were blamed.

And in an rare instance, readers conceded instead of lambasting critics.

7. Of Yummy Mommies

Hot mums are always a crowd-puller. While some just appreciate their good looks, others laud them for jugging home AND taking out time to take care of themselves.

In this case too, these filmi moms had many admirers.

8. Readers' Sexiest

Once again, Katrina Kaif emerged as the most popular actress, as Rediff readers voted her the sexiest actress among her contemporaries.

By the look of things, they were mighty pleased with the rest of the hotties on the list too.

9. The Superhero Debacle

It was really ironic that Shah Rukh Khan let his fans down with his most ambitious project ever.

The actor may have put heart and soul into Ra.One but the audiences just refused to buy it, leading to a post on all other past debacles of King Khan.

10. Butt Of Course

Vidya Balan's sexy FHM cover as a run up to her lead role in The Dirty Picture was by far, her most sensational cover we'd seen then.

No wonder then, it forced us to think of all the other shapely bodies we'd seen and admired in Bollywood.

Fourth batch! 😊

One of the most popular stories on Rediff Movies was the one on Southern actress showing off their bikini bodies!

Have a look at the fourth installment in our five-part special series on Rediff Movies Top 50 stories of 2011.

2. Being Potty-Trained

Delhi Belly may have turned out to be a hit but its toilet humour didn't go down well with certain sections of audiences and critics.

When this review pointed it out, readers turned up to respond in great numbers.

3. Bachchan With A Bump

Once again, the Bachchan bahu and her Beti B reigned supreme.

Aishwarya's first public appearance after the news of her pregnancy was broken by pa-in-law Amitabh Bachchan on Twitter was a momentous event.

4. Star Wives And Their Sex Appeal

Star wives are just as popular and fashionable as their better halves, as they take equal interest in their own grooming and social skills as their better known spouse.

It couldn't have been more evident than this piece's popularity.

Image: Gauri Khan

5. Bong Shell

Bipasha Basu sent many hearts racing when she appeared topless for a Maxim cover.

Flaunting her shapely back, the actress put all sceptics' wagging tongues about her weight to rest.

Image: Bipasha Basu

6. Katrina's Bold Avatars

Katrina Kaif may have moved on from being a starlet to a mainstream A-list actress and hence is rarely seen in any bold roles now.

But that doesn't mean her Boom days have been forgotten by her fans.

Image: Katrina Kaif

7. Bordering On Stardom

Pakistani beauties have made inroads into the Indian show business and have been successful to various extents.

Nargis Fakhri first appeared in headlines as Imtiaz Ali's choice for Rockstar and we revisited other hotties from across the border, who've enjoyed some fan-following in India.

Image: Nargis Fakhri

8. Calendar Stars

Ace lensman Dabboo Ratnani's calendar launch every year is a quite an event.

So when we featured a couple of his pictures from last year, readers just couldn't get enough of them.

9. Money Matters

One of the most expensive Hindi films, Shah Rukh Khan hoped great things would happen to him after his superhero film, Ra.One.

Sadly, as this story revealed, it was not to be.

10. Showered With Blessings

Aishwarya Rai Bachchan's baby shower was like a national festival for her fans.

As the film industry attended the grand event, they wished great things for the actress.

Last batch! 😊

We bring here the last installment of Rediff Movies' Top 50 stories from 2011.

. Bodyguard Has Arrived

When our critic said that Bodyguard was unimpressive, Salman loyalists took it upon themselves to prove her wrong.

They needn't have bothered, the film went on to become the biggest weekend opener of all time at the box office.

Image: Movie poster of Bodyguard

2. The Big Bollywood Wedding

When Aamir Khan threw a grand reception party for his nephew Imran and his new bride Avantika Mallik, the cream of Bollywood and high profile politicos turned up in their finest to congratulate the Khans.

It was one of the most high profile weddings of the year too.

3. Calendar Girl

Curiosity around Kashmera Shah's smoking hot calendar act refused to die down.

Readers just couldn't get enough of the starlet's new avatar.

Image: Kashmera Shah

4. The Real Rocker?

Rockstar released to largely positive reviews but, quite ironically, failed to impress musicians.

While the masses, who can't tell two different kinds of guitars apart, loved the film which is about a musician, there were others who didn't approve of Imtiaz Ali's immature treatment of a relatively untouched genre.

Image: A scene from Rockstar

5. Calendar Beauties

No one does it better than Bollywood babes.

And so, whenever one of them graces a calendar, it's a treat most mortals can't resist.

Image: Katrina Kaif

6. Ra.One Takes The Bigg Apple

Ra.one continued its dismal performance when it opened in New York theatres, which is quite surprising since Shah Rukh Khan has a huge fan base overseas and worse films have made money there.

Image: A scene from Ra.One

7. Mums And Item Numbers

Malaika Arora Khan's Munni act prompted us to dig for other mommies from Bollywood who'd fired up the screen with their sensational dance numbers.

And readers were quite pleased with the outcome

Image: Karisma Kapoor

8. Southern Superstars

Southern hotties Suriya and Shruti Haasan struck gold with their hit Tamil film 7 Aam Arivu as the film was a hit at the box office as well as with critics.

The fans thoroughly enjoyed watching their favourite stars too.

Image: 7 Aam Arivu movie poster

9. Age Of The Bold Babe

Vidya Balan was hot topic all throughout the year. Her role-of-a-lifetime in The Dirty Picture cemented her position as the only 'real' actress in Bollywood.

Everything about the film was a talking point for fans too.

10. Cinematic Crusades
