FIRST EYE CANDY OF THE YEAR. Again, I've been remiss with the eye candy -- haven't had any since December. So, in honour of my receipt of the double DVD of "the highest Bollywood box office grosser ever" (as it says on the cover) this time I'm choosing the star of OM SHANTI OM: the delightful Deepika Padukone.

Deepika was a model turned actress as well as being chosen as the "face of Maybelline". And I can see why. Please enjoy these photos of the jewel of the Indian subcontinent!

Sigh.
