1. Jacqueline Fernandez for Prevention India
Prevention yet again sticks to a plain and simple formula - capturing the actress in a bodycon dress. There's no denying Jacqueline is tremendously beautiful, but I wish Prevention gave us something exceptional to appreciate. A health magazine does not necessarily have to portray females in a figure hugging dress to show off their slenderness. Let's engage greater appeal Prevention!

2. Akshay Kumar for Exhibit India
Suited and booted, dressed in a suave grey suit - the ultimate Khiladi of Bollywood, Akshay Kumar strikes a pose for this months gadget magazine, Exhibit. It's great to see Akshay making an appearance on a front cover but I can barely appreciate it. Exhibit - a magazine about all things technology does not endorse this through the actor on the front cover. Presenting him in a suit and tie makes one think of this as an idyllic fashion magazine.

3. Deepika Padukone for FilmFare India
This months FilmFare left me somewhat disappointed. After capturing a phenomenal front cover last month with Shah Rukh Khan, this months front cover is contrarily bland. It's not like we haven't seen Deepika like this before, and whilst she is the reigning actress of our generation FilmFare really could have done a lot more to express this through the cover. Her natural and flawless appeal will undeniably woo fans either way.

4. Alia Bhatt for Women's Health, India
Yet again, another bodycon makes it to the front cover of this months Women's Health, India. But, somehow one can't help but notice that Alia in a bodycon for this magazine is grabbing greater attention! The lime green dress warms to her skin tone fabulously and works well with the hot pink typology. With more attention given to her lower assets one is automatically drawn to what Alia is wearing . It's a great shot of a young star in the making and although it's nothing new, it's nevertheless grabbing all the right attention.

5. Varun Dhawan for The Man, India
Varun Dhawan is the name that is keeping many tongues wagging, and there therefore could not have been better choice for this masculine orientated publication. Unfortunate for Varun, however is that hi is not looking his best. Despite the luxuriousness of the look he is donning can we all agree that this sense of style is not befitting to Varun? The youthful appeal he is known for carrying has been diminished away by an untimely classic grandfather look.

6. Shraddha Kapoor for Grazia India
The young and charismatic Shraddha Kapoor in a crispy autumn shoot for Grazia is indeed making a lot of heads turn! Not only does she look great here, but she carries off the Dior pre fall collection with immense grace and poise. While the outfit does a great deal of justice, I think her hair and makeup is well suited to the overall look.

7. Ranveer Singh for GQ, India
It's all in the expression! Ranveer Singh's facial expression of wildness all over! It's got that edginess for me to appreciate, and I think the black and white colouring works well to give Ranveer sole responsibility over the whole front cover. Ranveer's 'over exaggerated' look is what makes this magazine stand out miles apart. It's fun, quirky and definitely works to spread the word - Ranveer Singh is the 'wild-one'.

8. Sonam Kapoor for Harpers Bazaar, India
Sonam Kapoor for Harpers Bazaar in a classic smoky eye look and with sleek straight hair is looking her utmost best yet again. I love the use of colours in this imagery - the warm hue of deep purples are perfect for the season and she is working the autumn look fabulously. The B-Town fashionista strikes a 10/10 pose for Harpers Bazaar, I just wish she revealed a little smile to perk things up a little.

9. Ileana D'Cruz for Verve, India
Known for her phenomenal performance alongside Ranbir Kapoor and Priyanka Chopra in Barfi, Ileana's popularity is growing from strength to strength. The official bridal issue of Verve captures Ileana in a traditional Indian wedding attire with a unique and fresh look to it. Looking beyond conventional South Asian bridal colours (deep reds and maroons), Verve chose Ileana to depict fashionable wedding attire for today's modern woman. She looks equally sensational and dainty as she does chic and regal.

10. Katrina Kaif for FHM India
FHM India - the official men's magazine chose one of the hottest actresses of Bollywood to grace their front cover. Katrina Kaif pictured in a sleek black bralet and fitted pencil skirt shows off her perfect hourglass figure and sensuality. Many of Katrina's fans are looking forward to see the damsel in the big Christmas release of Dhoom 3, and this front cover serves a purpose to reveal how great Katrina is looking for the film. Love it!

11. Deepika Padukone for Vogue India
Deepika Padukone, the reigning queen of Bollywood makes it to the front cover of this months fashion issue of Vogue India. There's no denying she's looking uber hot in her queen avatar. Without being modest about her new image, Deepika grabs our attention looking us straight in the eyes. It's a fabulous shot and the reals of fabric draped around her add to the panache of this epic Vogue India shot.

12. Katrina Kaif for Hello India
Who said you need to have a splash of colour to prove you're worth it? You don't, and Katrina Kaif proves it in this black and white avatar for Hello India. I love the inspiration taken from Audrey Hepburn for this look. A very classy, yester-year front cover that Katrina will undoubtedly charm many readers with.

11. Priyanka Chopra for Femina India
She's sexy and she knows it! Showing off the ever so versatile and sexy actress, Priyanka Chopra in one of her hottest and quirkiest looks yet - she is Femina's power woman. The big hair and fitted black costume have come together to give off a garishly punky and funky look, with a sexy twist. The perfect 10.
