Celebrations are in order as the Queen of all things contemporary, Shilpa Shetty Kundra rings in her birthday today. Known best for her acting chops, statement-making looks and fitness game that put most of us to shame, this style icon continues her reign over the B-town even after 27 years of her debut. Making our Dhadkan skip a beat, Shilpa stepped in the tinsel town with her debut film Baazigar in 1993. She featured as a leading lady in many films like Main Khiladi Tu Anari, Janwar but it was Dhadkan that rose her to fame.

Despite being on a film sabbatical for over a decade, Shilpa continued to be the talk of the town, thanks to her fashion choices, fitness regime, and a healthy lifestyle. This style guru has been on the covers of fitness magazines and fashion tabloids for a long time now, given her fondness for a healthy lifestyle and love for all things quirky and contemporary. Shilpa recently launched her fitness and wellness application, The Shilpa Shetty Kundra app making her the first celebrity to do that. From her Instagram's Sunday Binge videos to her #ShilpaKaMantra posts, this yummy mummy continues to be tinsel town's sexiest fitness influencer. Being off the screen for quite a while now did not stop this diva in giving us oodles of sartorial inspiration as she would exhibit her A-game with public appearances, lifestyle seminars and as a judge, in reality shows. She would be making her much-awaited comeback with films like Nikamma and Hungama 2, and oh boy, we can't wait to witness her magic on the silver screen!

Just like her roles, Shilpa’s style game is also relevant after all these years. Shimmery dresses, neon heels, fauxy leathers, surreal organza, Shilpa have worked them all in her favor in the recent past. The actress surely has a knack of owning every outfit she dons, making us go gaga all over her. From blingy heels to leather trench coats and of course her signature contemporary drapes, Shilpa continues to reign in the fashion arena with her timeless style that is relevant even today.

So, as this beaut turns 44 and fabulous, here’s a look at all the modern trends Shilpa rocked, making her a style icon who is relevant even 27 years after her debut...
