This might come as a shocker to a few but it has happened. BollywoodLife's readers have spoken and chosen their favourite actress for the first half of 2019. In BollywoodLife's exciting polls #BLBestof6, the fans were asked to vote for their favorite actress for the first six months of 2019 and the results might come as a shocker to many.

The poll pitted Katrina Kaif for Bharat, Kangana Ranaut (Manikarnika), Taapsee Pannu (Badla) and Alia Bhatt (Gully Boy) for the title of the Best Actress of the First Half. And Katrina Kaif has emerged as the winner in the polls, beating Alia Bhatt.

Although Bharat primarily revolved around Salman Khan and his larger-than-life personality translating on screen, Katrina Kaif left an indelible mark with her performance as Kumud Raina aka Madam Sir. And it seems those charismatic curls and chaste Hindi, has won hearts of many. As a result, Kaif with a majority of 32 per cent won the poll and walked away with the title of the Best Actress.
