Actresses in Bollywood:

Bollywood is almost impossible to imagine without Actresses, but surprisingly actors are the one who are paid the highest and talked about.

We have seen Sonakshi Sinha playing the lead role in Akira, Vidya Balan in Tumhari Sulu, Kangana Ranaut in Queen and many more such recent examples where actresses have proved their talent and solo superiority to give a hit movie without a male lead actor.
