While we’d expect to see mostly Bollywood stars in\u00a0Eastern Eye\u2019s Sexiest Asian Woman 2018 list, our very own Mahira Khan also made it into the top 5.<\/p>\n

Eastern Eye, which is a UK-based and predominately Indian-owned weekly publication annually releases this list which celebrates beautiful Asian women. This time around,<\/p>\n

While the battle for the top spot remained between Ram Leela’<\/em>s Deepika Padukone and Desi girl Priyanka Chopra. Deepika held the throne till Priyanka knocked her out last year. But this year Deepika is back to the top of the rankings.<\/p>\n

Third place was occupied by Indian television actress Nia Sharma, the actress that everyone well in love with when she played Manvi in Ek Hazaroon Mein Meri Behna Hai\u00a0<\/em>(2011).<\/p>\n

Pakistani starlet Mahira Khan bagged the fourth place in these rankings. The Raees<\/em> actress was grateful for the accolade and sent out a heartfelt message to fans, which had us squirm with joy but bin roye<\/em> (happy tears). Last year Mahira Khan came in fifth.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am grateful to be part of this list once again. My fans are my strength so thank you to them. I think personally sexy is what sexy does and I hope to continue to work hard at what I do with as much as passion as I have been from the start,\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The English weekly certainly agrees because the women selected on this list were chosen based on their media coverage, activism and social campaigns.<\/p>\n

That’s how Cake<\/em> actress Sanam Saeed became the Editor’s Choice for 2018. The actress was selected for\u00a0pushing creative boundaries\u00a0in Pakistan and raising her voice for a number of burning social issues in the country including women\u2019s empowerment.<\/p>\n
