anushka vs tamanna

This is about a "takkar", for the throne of South India's hottest heroine. What started in Tollywood as a skirmish is now a war waged on all theatres south of the Vindhyas.

For the South Indian movie fan, Anushka Shetty and Tamannaah Bhatia are the synonyms of desire -- they are dream girls, angels and delightfully sexy sirens. As both these hotties cross swords, we take you for a ring-side view of the duel.

Both these glamazons are not averse to flaunting their oomph; and make no bones about it.

Tamannaah is known for her flawless skin tone; she has the naturally air brushed appearance that is to die for.

Anushka, on the other hand, is a bronze statue with a tan that men would die for. Her dusky skin tone adds to her sex appeal and also helps her enhance that sexy girl-next-door allure.

The ladies are on two different scales when it comes to their figures. In south Indian cinema, where heroines are loved for being buxom, both these actresses have set their own standards.

Tamannaah started out as a lean teen but over the years has gained enough pounds to be of impact on the B.O Richter.

Anushka has set standards with her height, in an industry where women are usually expected to be shorter than their heroes. She has a perfect figure, thanks to her career as a Yoga instructor before landing in movies.

Both the ladies have spread their name far and wide and their conquests lay in industries away from their respective 'motherlands'.

Tamannaah started out in Bollywood but after a flop debut there, she moved down south and slowly but steadily established herself as a super heroine in Tollywood and Kollywood.

Anushka is a Kannadiga. She too has been to Mumbai, but only to train and work as a yoga instructor. She has never worked in Sandalwood. She debuted in Telugu and then moved to Tamil, where she instantly connected with fans.
