If you thought television actresses were coy, and only donned salwar kameez and saris, you're totally wrong!

You may have seen them as the ideal bahus, betis or patnis onscreen but in real life, these telly beauties are so *sexy,* they have no qualms about showing themselves off in their bikinis! And they do give us a glimpse now and then from their social media feeds.

Take a look at telly's gorgeous bikini gals, and vote for the sexiest at the end.

 

Rubina Dilaik, who shot to fame with the Choti Bahu serial, shows us her curves.
