Miss Universe 2000 Lara Dutta-Bhupathi | Profile | Six Bikini Photos | Movies List

The new millennium started with a bang for India with three of its beauty queens taking the crown in major global competitions. In 2000, India won a rare triple victory with Priyanka Chopra, Dia Mirza and Lara Dutta (see bikini photo below), winning the Miss World, Miss Asia-Pacific and Miss Universe titles respectively.

We have previously featured Priyanka and Dia. Now, we are showcasing Lara Dutta-Bhupathi. Born on April 16, 1978, this beauty queen stands at a height of 173 cms. (5 feet, 8 inches). After winning in four major pageants, she had her screen debut in 2003 with the box office hit "Andaaz" in 2003.

Soon, this unstoppable achiever appeared in various films and is now considered as one of Bollywood's most successful actresses. I dare say that she is a pretty hot aunty (see photo below)! Lara was married to Maresh Bhupathi in 2011 and is now a dedicated mom to Saira.
