South Africa may be on top of B-Town's mind with the FIFA World Cup being held there. India has an attraction of its ownu00a0-- Candice Boucher, a South African Playboy hottieu00a0-- who features in an action film produced by Percept Pictures.
The beauty is the nude centrespead attraction of Playboy magazine for April 2010 and also the brand ambassador for a leading jeans brand.
Cast opposite Sachin Joshi, the MD of an energy drink endorsed by Shah Rukh Khan, will Ms Boucher be seen in her birthday suit in the film? "No nude scenes with Candice!" says a source close to the project. "We will be using her presence to enhance the project's glamour quotient. We don't intend to go overboard. She will appear on screen revealing as much flesh as Indian sensibilities permit. We are making an Indian film keeping Indian audiences in mind."
"The film will be directed by Prashant Chadha and will be shot in Germany, Prague, Morocco and China," adds the source. Salim-Sulaiman will score the music.
Shailendra Singh of Percept does not deny any of the above facts. However he refrains from comment.
