01/9Simran Bagga looks like a billion bucks in these super-hot Telugu songs

During the late 90s till the mid-2000s, the irresistible beauty and charismatic personality of Simran Bagga has trembled the hearts of youth across the Telugu territory. She was literally treated like a demigoddess in all the southern states with several blockbusters to her credit opposite all A-list stars. After an unsuccessful stint in Bollywood, the Mumbai-born actress travelled down South and established a substantial film career which not many north beauties have had before. After playing the leading lady for close to a decade, Simran moved into TV for a few years after marriage and returned back to Kollywood in 2014. She was recently seen opposite Rajinikanth in Petta.

The beautiful lady forayed into Tollywood in 1997 with the Suman starrer ‘Abbai Gari Pelli’. However, it was Nandamuri Balakrishna’s monstrous hit ‘Samarasimha Reddy’ that changed her fortunes and catapulted her into the big league of Telugu cinema. With successful films like Kalisundam Raa, Nuvvu Vastavani and Narasimha Naidu, she became the most-sought-after actress in no time. As its Flashback Friday, let’s rewind some of her super-hot songs.
