Mallika Sherawat

Presenting the first in a series of four lists of sexy sirens that make us sweat under the collar.

Pamela Anderson was the stuff that Indian men's dreams were made of. Back in the day when Doordarshan telecast family soaps that ran at snail's pace, Pam in her red swimsuit probably made television viewing such a pleasure!

Almost two decades later, as the hottie steps into the Bigg Boss house, we take a look at some of the contemporary pin-up girls -- sexy sirens who make us weak in our knees.

Mallika Sherawat

She may not have belted out a single hit film and may have had barely one-and-a-half bit role in that forgettable Jackie Chan movie. But that rarely stops us from having wet dreams of Mallika Sherawat, does it?

Be it facing the camera dressed in little else but a whip or tweeting like a maniac on a death row, Mallika Sherawat's chutzpah doesn't just make her endearing but also one you'd like to go to bed looking at!
