Likewise there are a lots of Bollywood actresses in the 100 crore club who just made it there by a sheer stroke of luck or thanks to somebody else’s luck. While many actresses fail in Bollywood due to lack of talent, there is a creamy layer in the category that simply managed success by siding with the Bollywood folks who are already successful. Here is a list of Bollywood actresses who got a piggy back ride to success.

Kareena Kapoor Khan – A high ranker on the list in the category, the actress has quite literally taken an oath to work only with the Bollywood A listers and nobody else. She has been a part of successful films like Bajrangi Bhaijaan, 3 Idiots, Bodygaurd and Golmaal 3 which got success due to many others reasons than her acting in it.

Katrina Kaif – Better known for her hot body, her career took a leap because of her romantic associations with Salman Khan and the negligible roles that she got in his movies. If she was a part of mega star films like those with Akshay Kumar, Salman, Shah Rukh or Aamir, she found success or else flaunting her perfect body was the easiest way to go.
