Who was she and which film was it? Today, in this feature, let's find out more about the first Indian actress to wear a bikini on-screen: Who Was Meenakshi Shirodkar? 2 / 7 Meenakshi Shirodkar worked predominantly in Marathi films, Marathi theatre and television. She made her debut in 1938 and continued to act in films until the early 1970s. She hogged limelight for wearing a swimsuit in the Marathi film Brahmachari (1938) with Master Vinayak. She is the paternal grandmother of two Bollywood actresses, Namrata Shirodkar and Shilpa Shirodkar.

It was considered to be a huge move for any actress in those days. She wore a bikini set for a song 'Yamuna Jali Khelu Khel'. The song was sung by Shirodkar herself and became a huge hit. Sharmila Tagore, Nalini Jaywant, Nargis And Other Actresses Who Wore Bikini 4 / 7 Nalini Jaywant did wear a bikini in the 1950 film 'Sangram' alongside Ashok Kumar.

Meenakshi Shirodkar's Personal Life 5 / 7 Meenakshi Shirodkar was born as Ratan Pednekar to a Maharashtrian family with Goan roots. She was later married to Dr Shirodkar, with whom she had a son, who married Marathi actress Gangu Bai and became parents of film actresses Namrata Shirodkar and Shilpa Shirodkar. She started learning Indian classical music at an early age. Shirodkar died at the age of 80 in Mumbai.

IND vs ENG: Sunil Gavaskar flaunts his 'lucky jacket' after India level series 2-2 against England at The Oval

Indian legend Sunil Gavaskar had more than just analysis to offer during the thrilling conclusion to the IND vs ENG Test series; he brought his now-famous 'lucky jacket' back into the spotlight. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now As India clinched a dramatic six-run victory in the fifth and final Test at The Oval to draw the series 2-2, Gavaskar's exuberant reaction inside the commentary box went viral, adding a delightful personal touch to a historic moment. When Mohammed Siraj dismissed Gus Atkinson to wrap up England's innings at 367, sealing the Test match and levelling the series, the cameras caught Gavaskar proudly pointing to his white jacket, the same one he wore during India's iconic win at the Gabba in 2021. Shubman Gill and Mohammed Siraj press conference: India stars answer all questions 'Lucky jacket!' he exclaimed, his face lit up with joy. The moment, captured live, quickly took over social media as fans shared his excitement. Watch: Gavaskar had hinted at this earlier in the series. After Day 3, he told Shubman Gill: "Tomorrow, I am going to wear my lucky jacket which I wore in Australia, the white jacket for the Gabba Test. I have got it only for that. All the best, God bless you." Rain delayed play, pushing the final day into Monday, and sure enough, Gavaskar was ready in his signature white. As Siraj delivered a stunning five-wicket haul, the jacket's lucky charm seemed to work its magic again. "I kept this lucky jacket on this tour only for the series decider," Gavaskar later said during the post-match show. The match itself was a classic, with India defending 374 runs. Siraj (5/104) and Prasidh Krishna (4/126) rose to the occasion. Siraj finished the series with 23 wickets, the most across both teams. India's comeback from 1-2 down capped off a thrilling series and gave Gavaskar's jacket yet another legendary chapter.
