Reema Sen
(Anyone notice a lot of these ladies were born in October?)
Like a lot of these other ladies, she started out in modeling, then went to music videos and finally the big screen.
She made her acting debut in the 2000 low budget Telugu film, Chitram with Uday Kiran.
Reemma has gone on to appear in almost thirty Telugu, Tamil, Hindi, Bengali and Kannada films.
In case you are wondering about all the name changes, Reema Sen changed her name to Reemma to improve her luck.
I think it has something to do with numerology.
Also, she is now just billed as "Reemma".
Rekha
She is better known to her fans by her stage name Rekha.
Rekha has made almost 200 films, ranging from mainstream movies to art cinema (which I spoke about in one of the earlier Hubs).
Both of her parents were actors, her father was the "King of Love" in Tamil cinema Gemini Ganesan and her mother was Tamil and Telugu film actress actress Pushpavalli.
Rekha started out as a child actor in the 1966 Telugu film Rangula Ratnam.
Riya Sen
Riya Sen was born Riya Dev Varma on January 24th, 1981 in Kolkata, West Bengal, India.
She is part of the famous Sen acting family which includes Suchitra Sen (her grandmother), Moon Moon Sen (her mother) and Raima Sen (her sister).
Yes, Riya started out as a model, then went to music videos, but before all that, she appeared as a child actor in the 1991 film Vishkanya.
She has gone on to appear in almost thirty Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam and at least one English language film.
Although she is regarded as a sex symbol and is very popular in the media, she still hasn't had the acting success that she needs.

She made her acting debut in the 1958 film Abana, and went on to appear in over thirty films, her last one being Ulfat Ki Nayee Manzilen in 1994.
This is the first actress I have profiled that had a haircut named after her.
Director R.K. Nayyar suggested that Sadhana get her hair cut like Hollywood star Audrey Hepburn.
She did, and the "Sadhana cut" became a huge hit.
