Skin show is no skill.
Even if Bollywood's hottest women would like to make us believe otherwise.
While in some cases channeling the sex symbol within has led to great advances in their careers, like Urmila Matondkar in Rangeela, Mallika Sherawat in Murder and Priyanka Chopra in Dostana, not everyone's gotten far with it.
