And in my defense, I saw C.H.U.D II: Bud the C.H.U.D. when I was about ten, and was feeling nostalgic one day. There were a lot of movies that I thought were great when I was ten. Like the afore mentioned movie, plus Master of the Universe, Howard the Duck, and Motel Hell (okay, I still think Motel Hell is an awesome movie, mainly because of the dying confession of the bad guy). Nope.

I wish I had a fiver for every time someone arrived at my site by way of some variation on the search term "Zeenat Aman nude".

It seems like it has dwindled to non-existence even there in the past ten years. When a movie does do it, it's almost always the exact same two scenes -- a scene of a woman who starts off showering while wearing granny style undergarments, only to eventually remove her top; and a love making scene where the guy will remove the woman's top as they roll around awkwardly and rub each others arms. For a people who gave us the kama sutra and those temples with all the sexy gods carved into them, they're not exactly adept at filming nude scenes. So for the most part, the whole of Indian cinema walks that razor's edge of hypocrisy where it's taboo to show a bare breast or kissing, but you can have a dozen hot models writhing around in a sudden rain storm and gyrating into the camera. Male nudity is apparently peeking its butt cheeks out in mainstream Bollywood cinema, though. And the kissing thing, while still causing professional busybodies and zealots to affect their usual stance of outrage, has been making some headway. But I doubt they'll go the route of nudity, at least in Bollywood, any time soon. Worth noting that the films that feature nudity in the south also favor the less Bollywoodish, more traditional taste in body type -i.e., a few extra pounds never hurt anyone, man or woman, which I think is pretty awesome. The preponderance of facial hair, however, does not make for especially erotic close-ups of people kissing.
