Hottest Actresses Turned Businesswomen In Bollywood

Bollywood actresses are turning into businesswomen these days. These pretty lasses are well aware of their short life span in the film industry and so when they are still doing well in Bollywood, they turn to new business ventures as well, to secure their future.

Shilpa Shetty is one such actress who started her business venture with her yoga fitness DVD's and very soon extended her business line to the IPl league as well. Along with her husband Raj Kundra, the actress has bought a cricket team.Shilpa Shetty's film career may have taken a back seat at the moment but the Bollywood beauty says she still wants to be known as an actress rather than as a businesswoman.

Shilpa, whose career got a new lease of life after her win in Britain's 'Big Brother', recently turned producer with her maiden production Dishkiyaoon. The Sunny Deol-Harman Baweja starrer did not do well at the box-office and the actress said she learnt her lesson as a producer. "I do not want to put the blame on anybody. I understood that script is the main hero in a film. From next time onwards we will make a film which has a strong content and at the same time entertaining," said the actress, who is likely to produce a comedy next.

Bipasha too has turned into a businesswoman, after getting in Sussanne Roshan for its home decor private label and Malaika Arora Khan for fashion products, The Label Corp has now got Bipasha Basu for its next fashion accessories portal The Trunk Label. Apart form this, Bipasha has also brought out two fitness-based DVDs - "BB Love Yourself: Fit and Fabulous You" (2010) and " Breakfree" (2012).
