Talking about a woman's age is known to be rude, but celebrating her birthday is made equally polite, and exciting! This week BollyCurry is rejoicing the birthday of one such person, who is a Tinsel-Town star, and shimmers her glitter world-wide.

Lara Dutta Bhupathi, celebrates her birthday on the 16^th April every year. Born to a Punjabi father, Wind Commander LK Dutta, and Anglo-Indian mother Jennifer Dutta, Lara has two other sisters, and is also a cousin of Music Composer and DJ Nitin Sawhney. She completed her basic education in Bangalore, and further pursued her graduation in economics from Bombay University.

Lara won the Gladrags Megamodel Competition in 1995, and once again emerged as the winner of Miss International Pageant 1997. She was also further titled Femina Miss India Universe in 2000, the second Indian woman to achieve the status. The famous quote "Beauty with Brains" is surely proven in Lara after considering the fact that she has scored the highest grades in the history of a Miss Universe competition. It is indeed an outstanding achievement.

Lara made her debut in Bollywood with the movie Andaaz (2003). This movie brought her the very first Filmfare Best Female Debut Award. Although her initial movies did not garner much success neither at the box office, nor in the hearts of the audience; her lucky ticket to success was marked by her roles in the super-hit comedy flicks including No Entry and Masti. Since then, Lara has never looked back, as she climbed the ladders of victory, one by one, at a stretch.
