Top 10 hottest magazine covers of 2013

Films - check, parties - check, red carpet -check, magazine covers - double check. No, we are not making an itinerary; in fact, we are stressing on how omnipresent our silver screen actresses are.
Additionally, they are increasingly edging out supermodels by bagging high-end glossy covers of various magazines. But, we don’t complain, for they look like a million bucks. From Kareena Kapoor toTabu, every mainstream Indian actress has perhaps been featured on one of these covers.
Let’s take a look at 10 of the hottest magazine covers of 2013.

1) Kareena Kapoor for Vogue, February
This woman is a freaking goddess as she looks like a dream in this strapless, black Dior gown. The lovely actress shows-off her well toned legs in a thigh-high split dress and a black top hat. Needless to say, hats off woman!

2) Deepika Padukone for Filmfare, January
We are transported into the ‘50s with this spunky cover by Filmfare for its January issue. Deepika pouts perfectly in a Shivan and Narresh maillot and Surily Goel hot pants. And talking about oomph, Dippy has oodles of it.

   3) Priyanka Chopra for Vogue, March
    Rebel, rockstar, fierce and impactful are some of the adjectives we associate Priyanka with, and the March edition of Vogue somehow emanates the same vibe. In a Shivan and Narresh swimsuit and Burberry cape, Priyanka captivated our attention.

4) Anushka Sharma for Maxim, February
The ever-sizzling Anushka Sharma rains sexiness on Maxim India’s February issue. The pastel green crochet top and pink hot pants are a far cry from her usual easy chic looks. We don’t remember the last time she looked so sexy.

5) Jacqueline Fernandez for FHM, January
Looking absolutely sizzling and raunchy on the cover of FHM is Sri Lankan hottie, JacquelineFernandez. She wears a jumpsuit by Diesel, unzipped to show-off her polka dot bikini top by Roxy.

6) Chitrangada Singh for Hi! Blitz, April
Doesn’t she look like snow white, albeit very ethereal, caught between two huntsmen? In a Gauri and Nanika gown, Chitrangada Singh is totally killing it. Things become too easy if you’ve got such a flawless face!

7) Tabu for Harper’s Bazaar, April
As the saying goes, ‘shut the front door somebody’! It took us a moment of staring to realise that it’s actually Tabu on the cover of Harper’s Bazaar for their April issue! She looks every inch the diva. She is wearing a green Amit Aggarwal cape.

8) Katrina Kaif for Filmfare, April
Katrina Kaif flirts with her Filmfare, April issue and given her doll-like looks, she seems at ease playing naughty on the cover. A perfect concoction of sass and style, Katrina heats it up in a black corset and pink lacy brassiere.

9) Esha Gupta for Vogue, April
Esha Gupta looks beautiful in a Gucci printed dress. From being a ramp scorcher to a Kingfisher calendar girl, Esha has come a long way. And this recent cover tells the same tale. Quite in vogue, we say!

10) Deepika Padukone for L’officiel, March
Dressed in Dior with dramatic icy-blue eye shadow, Deepika cuts quite a stunning picture. And the cover reiterates how hot this actress is! We are surely bowled over.
