A bikini is considered to be one of the stylish as well as sexy outfits for women. While bikini looks garner love across the globe, do you know today is bikini’s birthday? Yes, this summer and beach attire was born on July 5th, 1946.
As per Sujata Assomull, the official ‘bikini,’ was inspired by a U.S. atomic test at Bikini Atoll ( a coral reef in the Marshall Islands of the Pacific Ocean). While the Bikini often symbolises the confidence and attitude of a woman, many Bollywood beauties have aced this bold and sensual look with ease and finesse. Let’s check them out…
Sharmila Tagore
In 1966, Sharmila Tagore turned out to be the first mainstream female Bollywood artists, when she posed in a bikini for a magazine cover. “Oh God, how conservative our society was back then! I’ve no idea why I did that shoot. It was just before I got married. I remember when I showed the two-piece bikini to the photographer, he asked me, ‘Are you sure about this?’ In some of the shots, he even asked me to cover my body. He was more worried than I was, but I had no qualms doing that shoot. Only when people started reacting strongly to the cover, was I taken aback. I was puzzled as to why they didn’t like the picture. I thought I looked nice. Some called it a deliberate move to grab eyeballs; others termed me as ‘astutely uncanny’. I hated that. Maybe, there was an exhibitionist in me, as I was young and excited to do something different,” recalled the veteran actress in an interview to Filmfare, Hindustan Times reported.
