But the reason this Kambakkht Ishq will be a scorcher is because the women here -- Kareena, Amrita Arora and Denise -- will strut their stuff in sexy swmisuits.

Kareena has done it before -- to great effect -- in Tashan, where she donned a lime green bikini. As wait for Kambakkht Ishq to release, cast a backward glance at Bollywood's heroines, who sizzled in bikinis.

Ilene Hamann in Rog: South African beauty isn't a desi girl. But her debut in Pooja Bhatt's 2005 thriller Rog starring Irrfan Khan, made sure she was noticed. After all, nobody can fill a bikini quite like this 24-year-old model.

Celina Jaitley in Money Hai Toh Honey Hai: The film was forgettable but not the women -- Celina in her red bikini, and Hansika Motwani and Kim Sharma.

Mugdha Godse in Fashion: When Mugdha sashayed in this metallic two piece in Fashion, she looked hot and made sure her Bollywood debut would not go unnoticed.

Minissha Lamba in Kidnap: The 24-year-old said she had to work hard on her body in order to look good in this white bikini. Well, it looks like all the hard work paid off. It's a pity that the scene barely lasted a minute.

Neha Dhupia in Julie: The 29-year-old dropped most of her clothes for this 2004 drama to reveal a very shapely figure.

Bipasha Basu in Dhoom 2: What's bold and beautiful with a pout to match? Bips, of course. The actress, who turned 30 years old, looked toned in an itsy bitsy bikini while cavorting on the beach in a song in Dhoom 2

Amisha Patel in Thoda Pyaar Thoda Magic: When Amisha wore this hot bikini, Saif Ali Khan -- the object of her seductions in TPTM -- didn't raise an objection. Neither did most of the audience.

Sameera Reddy in Musafir: Among the many things Musafir is known for is Sameera's smooching scene with Anil Kapoor. And of course, her white bikini

Sharmila Tagore in An Evening In Paris: Hot and sexy today's heroines may be, but few can match the poise and sophistication of young Sharmila, who became the first Indian woman to wear a bikini in An Evening In Paris, way back in 1967.
