The film titled Aazaan, starring business tycoon Sachin Joshi, marks the Bollywood debut of the South African model who made it to the cover of the world’s largest selling men’s magazine and is also the face of Guess.

Says director Prashant Chadha, “While scripting the film, I felt Candice would make the perfect mystery miss. Given that she’s a Playboy cover girl, the instant connect is — she must be hot. It’s true that she is hot but there’s also a certain vulnerability in her that makes her more appealing.”

Candice plays a sand artist in the international espionage film about an informant who has to go undercover beyond enemy lines to save the nation from destruction.

Acclaimed sand artist Alexandra Konofalskaya was flown down from Belarus to train Candice for her role in the film.  Says Candice, “I never imagined that I will be working in a Bollywood film but now I’m looking forward to it. I love India and want to see a lot of it.”
