Looks like super model Padma Lakshmi is moving ahead in life after the much talked about divorce with author Sir Salman Rushdie. Padma who has dabbled in a lot of other things apart from modelling, is busy with a new cookbook Tangy Tart Hot and Sweet: A World of Recipes for Every Day and is also hosting the successful series Top Chef.
This the gorgeous bod was last seen on the big screen with Aishwarya Rai in Paul Mayeda Berges' film Mistress of Spices. For those who didn't get enough of her in the flick here's some great news.
Padma will be starring in Oscar-nominated director Deepa Mehta's upcoming pseudo-historical film, Exclusion. Recently the renowned director was heard saying, "I think she is seriously underestimated and I would love to have her in my film, Exclusion, though she is not from Punjab or any northern state in India. I just love those eyes." Exclusion is a period drama, starring Amitabh Bachchan and John Abraham.
Since acting has been Padma's first love this leggy lass will sure have her fingers crossed.
