After the Mexican hottie Barbara Mori with Hrithik Roshan in Kites and Sarah Thompson with Ranbir Kapoor in Raajneeti, it is South African Playboy centrespread queen Candice Boucher who has been signed opposite IPL baron and Managing Director of the XXX energy drink Sachin Joshi for an action film being produced by Percept Pictures.
Boucher is currently the hottest face and body across the world. She is the nude centrespead attraction of Playboy magazine for April 2010 and also the brand ambassador for Guess jeans.
Cricket and glamour couldn’t get to be cosier bed-mates than this.
Apparently Joshi who’s allegedly funding the action thriller wanted a leading lady who would have an instant international appeal.
So will Ms Boucher be seen in her birthday suit in Mr Joshi’s actioner?
“No nude scenes with Candice Boucher!” says a source very close to the project. “We will be using her presence to enhance the project’s glamour quotient.
However we don’t intend to go overboard. Candice will appear on screen revealing as much flesh as Indian sensibilities permit. We are making an Indian film keeping Indian audiences in mind.
Today Deepika and Priyanka are very comfortable with their bodies. Candice won’t seem an oddity.”
The question is, what would the BCCI already, scrutinizing the exacerbated glamour quotient of the IPL, think of Joshi romancing the Playboy centrspread in a film whose budget could feed 25 starving villages for a whole year?
Says a key source from the production team, “We don’t think Sachin Joshi’s activities in the IPL have a bearing on his movie career. He has done a South Indian film earlier and he has been building his physique for this 30-crore rupee action flick in Hindi for months now.
We shot a 20-minute show reel for the film and Sachin came across as a perfect action hero. The film will be directed by Prashant Chadha and will be shot in Germany, Prague, Morocco and China.”
Percept who will produce, market and distribute the film in India and overseas will release in summer 2011.
Percept has roped in Salim-Suleiman to do the music. Global pop-queen Shakira will perform a key song to be shot on Candice Boucher.
When approached Shailendra Singh of Percept does not deny any of the above facts. However he refrains from comment.
