The Powerpuff Girls, Cartoon Network’s action packed girl trio series that first aired in 1998, is flying back to TV after an 11 year long break. The brand new 40 episodes bring back the same animated super-girls Blossom, Bubbles and Buttercup, though the show’s producers, voice actors and animators have all changed since its first run. But making up for their absence were Bollywood’s very own super-girls.
What do our celebrity divas have in common with the animated schoolgirls, you wonder? Well, read on to find out!
Deepika Padukone: Blossoms as the Industry Leader
Deepika Padukone leads a pack of strong headed and talented actresses. She stands tall with her performances and fights nasty rumours, depression and jet lag like a boss! She’s a Blossom no doubt!
Katrina Kaif: Blossoms in an Alien Industry
Katrina Kaif has more in common with Blossom than her flaming red Fitoor hair. She has won hearts in an alien industry and never loses her calm while fighting monsters.
Kareena Kapoor: Unbreakably Blossom
Kareena Kapoor is a total fighter and never gives into gossip. She’s dedicated, strong and leads a no drama life. There’s no filmmaker in the industry who wouldn’t want to work with her. Her durability makes her a supergirl, just like Blossom.
Jacqueline Fernandez: The Bubbly One
Have you ever seen Jacqueline not grinning from ear to ear? Her spunk is infectious and what can’t you fight wit that power! She’s such a Bubbles.
Alia Bhatt: Bubble-ing her Way to the Top
Alia Bhatt is all Bubbles. Well, she’s the cutest of them all, flaunts her schoolgirlish charm wherever she goes and is a quick learner. Just when you thought she wasn’t very bright, she took on the judgemental critics with her sarcasm and self mockery. Not to forget the smashing performances that followed.
Priyanka Chopra: & Her Million Dollar Bubble
Nothing can bring Priyanka Chopra down. She flashes her million dollar smile in the face of rumours, negativity and competition. Priyanka is Bubbles because she doesn’t believe in saying ‘no’ and is extremely intelligent. Even the jet lag from her constant shuttling between LA and Mumbai doesn’t tire her superhuman stamina!
Anushka Sharma: Tough as (a) Buttercup
Anushka Sharma doesn’t mince her words. She’s talented and brutal. Social media trolls, ex-boyfriends and haters, this hotheaded Buttercup has no patience for anything but hard work and brilliance. Watch who you’re messing with.
Kangana Ranaut: I Ain’t No Buttercup, But a Whole Lot More
If you mess with Kangana Ranaut, be sure that she won’t do nothing. She wins National Awards like a boss and won’t get bullied by anyone. Kangana has fought her way to the top in Bollywood and nothing scares this Buttercup.
Parineeti Chopra: The Buttercup Next Door
Parineeti Chopra is a dude to say the least. Her dazzling smile doesn’t give away the tomboy she is inside, but her mannerisms do. And now she’s leaner, meaner and fitter than ever! She’s got a mind of her own and never shies away from putting a rude reporter in his place. With Parineeti around, you better watch yourself before you wreck yourself.
