Diamonds might be a girl's best friend. A Bollywood Queen Bee, however, holds dear her share of gold, silver, kundan, minakari, gems and pearls too. Fropki.com showcases some exquisite jewelery worn by our heroines in the movies recently.

Jodhaa Akbar

Playing a Rajput princess can be a hard day's work when adorned with these many jewels. Yet Aishwarya Rai Bachchan looks armed to kill in elaborate pieces of gold, diamond and pearls for Ashutosh Gowarikar's magnum opus, Jodhaa Akbar.

Devdas

Sanjay Leela Bhansali's extravagant version of Sarat Chandra Chattopadhyay's novel is every jewelery aficionado's dream come true. If Madhuri Dixit looks a million bucks in her gold jhumkis and kundan haars, Ash is aristocracy personified in her choice of antique ornaments.

Paheli

Precious bodhlas, intricate naths, sparkling kangans and studded necklaces (helmed by jewlery brand Tanishq) have their own stories to share even as they sit pretty on an equally gorgeous Rani Mukerji in the Rajasthani fairy tale, Paheli.

Veer-Zaara

Preity Zinta dumps her usual urban chick look to deck up in lavish diamond-emerald chokers and teekas for Yash Chopra's Indo-Pak romance.

Umrao Jaan

The best thing about playing a Bollywood courtesan is the bling factor. Costume drama veteran, Aishwarya is a sight to behold in her shiny, bejeweled avatar for J P Dutta's lackluster remake of the Muzzaffar Ali's classic.
