Bollywood's new entrant Upen Patel is in Johannesburg shooting for Suneel Darshan's "Shaka Laka Boom Boom" and he seems to be smitten by the place, especially the women.

"This place is a red paradise. It is so beautiful. I've seen some of the most gorgeous women out here. They are really beautiful. I'm totally in love with the place," said Upen.

The actor is quite upbeat about his stylish look in the film, which also stars Bobby Deol and Celina Jaitley.

"The shooting is going absolutely fantastic and I love the way Manish (Malhotra) has styled me as a style icon in the film. Though I'm missing Mumbai, I'm more then glad working out here. This place is a dream."

Looks like Upen's working hard and partying harder in South Africa.
