In pictures: 7 times Pakistani and Indian actors slayed hard and took our breath away

From Mahira to Alia, these seven stars are the gift that keeps on giving

Pakistan and India can boast a ton of talent on the global stage. There's no getting around that. However, the cherry on top is that the treasure trove of talent is also inundated with heaps of beauty. Truly, it's almost unfair.

Pakistani and Indian actors continue to work to create their mark in various ways, but when they look so ridiculously great, regardless of the avatar they are in, it must be appreciated. Of course, beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and everyone is, inherently beautiful. But the seven ladies on this list? Well, they're something special altogether.

Without further ado, here are seven times Pakistani and Indian stars straight up took our breath away:

1. When Hania Aamir served us some Barbie goodness

2. When Syra Yousuf showed us how to perfectly carry a power suit

3. When Mahira Khan wore a sari and looked straight up ethereal

4. When Sajal Aly got decked up and stopped our scrolling

5. When Deepika Padukone went to the Oscars and looked like the greatest award herself

6. When Alia Bhatt essayed Rani and looked otherworldly in her saris

7. When Katrina Kaif wore white and served so hard, we needed a minute

There you have it. There have, of course, been numerous other times many other stars have shown us how it's done. And you know what? Every moment spent serving is a moment well spent. Are any of your favourites missing? Do you have more to add to the list? Comment and share your thoughts!
