Candice Boucher may have found fame as a centrespread model for Playboy, but her Bollywood debut’s proving to be far more demure. While industry watchers first thought that she had been roped into Azaan for a dare-to-bare act, sources say Candice’s turn is fairly mellow.
“Azaan is a spy thriller, not an erotic film,” says our source. “So the makers of the film didn’t want audiences to have any false expectations of nudity.”
Then why was a Playboy model roped in? “See, the makers wanted an international face for the film. They wanted someone who was a known name rather than someone who was an unknown entity. Hence Candice,” our source explains.
Of course, the romantic track within the film has quite a few spicy moments between Candice and leading man Sachiin Joshi. “There are a few scenes which will keep the front benchers happy,” our source says. “But it has all been done very aesthetically. Candice has exposed far less than other Bollywood actresses are doing these days.”
