Who is a match for Bond?

James Bond, the name brings to mind more than just a detective or a sleuth. From fancy weapons to seductive women, Bond is a complete package of excitement. They could be subtle lovers, villains, victims, deadly assassins or steely bureaucrats - attractive women who know their job are an integral part of a Bond flick. And with Mr Bond Daniel Craig, saying that he is open to offers from Bollywood, let us take a look at who could match the Bond on the Indian silver screen.

From 'Jism' to 'Dhoom 2' Bipasha can carry off the role of an object of desire to supporting investigative officer with equal ease and poise. Add to it the fact that she is one who does not shy away from enacting bold scenes. Bipasha could perhaps have everything going her way to be the perfect Bond bombshell.

She is shaping up to be the ultimate superwoman of Indian cinema. After Don, Priyanka has established herself as the lady-face of action in Bollywood. Though Drona was not a hit she still maintains her superwoman image. Priyanka could be a good match for the Craig with a little bit western touch.

Once upon a time, there were rumors that Ash could pair up with the ex Mr Bond, Peirce Brosnan in a Bond movie. And Ash had been too ready to deny those rumors. But would she reconsider now? If we were to follow the statistics, she has always done better in roles which were subdued, soft and ethereal. She would have to dump the aura of a diva to get under the skin of the Bond girl. But then, we are not forgetting Ash in 'Dhoom 2'.

Post 'Big Brother', the rumor mills went over time with 'unnamed reports' claiming that Shilpa could be in the running for the Bond girl role. Of course, as the casting progressed, these gossips fell on the wayside and Shilpa is busy with her other commitments. With her petite frame and delicate features, Shilpa would need to work on getting tougher looks to be a match to the Bond.

Lara Dutta has the soft yet vulnerable look and looks every bit the stunner be it a sexy negligee to the skimpiest bikini. She could have carried off the Bond girl look. And we did hear the little birdie sing her name too when they reportedly looked for the Bond girl.

Her fans would say that Bebo would be the perfect Bond girl. She looks stunning in anything that she wears and could carry off the Bond girl with elan and grace. She has the class, the style and the attitude which will compel everyone to say that Mr Bond has finally met his match.

If being catty and sexy were the only criterion in being the Bond girl, Mallika Sherawat would have been it long back. Add a little bit of sophistication, Ms Sherawat, and you will make it to the top of the list.

Cherubic and dimple cheeked Preity Zinta they say has a degree in criminal psychology. Sometimes, it looks like the only thing which goes in her favor to being the bond girl. She has been the girl next door, and a patriotic one at that rather than a sexy bombshell.

Complicated and choosy, Sushmita Sen has the attitude to carry a Bond girl role. She could not really convince the masses as a victim to a stalker in 'Dastak', but how good will she be as a Bond girl?

She has everything going for her right now. With her Indian looks and western touch Katrina sure is a strong contender to be working alongside Bond. Add a touch of action and some tough moves, Kats could beat everyone hands down.

Two films, two hits. The new crowned princess of Bollywood is comfortably placed as the top choices for an actress when it comes to mainstream Bollywood. From cricketers to her co-actors, she has always been in the news and also loved the limelight. The super sexy Deepika could essay the role of the Bond girl with panache.

She may have shocked the world with the revelation that she never felt like being a part of a hardcore Bollywood commercial film, but the picture-perfect Kangana Ranaut who has wowed the critics and her fans in 'Woh Lamhe' and 'Life...in a Metro' and 'Fashion' may be the perfect Bond girl as she is bold, reckless and oozes lots of attitude and oomph.

Shriya Saran shot to fame overnight with her role in 'Shivaji' opposite Rajnikant. She has to her credit a couple of good movies and a body which she loves to show off and court controversies.

Asin is the girl next door, who shot fame after Aamir Khan picked her for his upcoming flick 'Ghajni'. She has a couple of awards to her credit, but does she have the making of a Bond girl? We let you be the judge!
