WE should remember Ragini, Padmini, Vyajayantimala, Hema Malini, Rekha,Sridevi, Jayaprada who ruled Hindi film industry for many decades. In recent decades a new batch of south Indian actresses including Shilpa Shetty, Aishvarya Rai, Vidya Balan, Deepika Padukon, Genelia D'Souza, Asin and many others appeared in Hindi movies.
