Ever since Daniel Craig decided to put playing James Bond 007 on hold, there have been all kinds of rumours floating about a new Bond. But what has caught our eye is the way Hollywood's new Indian star Priyanka Chopra is being hailed as a good choice for playing a female Bond. And she isn't averse to the idea of a lady Bond.

Recently, the UK-based website Refinery 29 even quoted the Qantico gal saying, `And not Jane (Jane Bond). She should be James Bond, and she should be able to sell it. Why not?`

Though Priyanka is not the only Indian actress whose name has been speculated for a Bond movie. After Shilpa Shetty won Celebrity Big Brother, her then publicist Dale Bhagwagar had told a British journalist from Daily Mail that if an Indian actress could play a Bond girl, it could be Shilpa Shetty.


The PR guru's comment received a lot of publicity when it was picked up by various blogs and websites, some of which carried out opinion polls with a list of Indian actresses to choose from. And Shilpa indeed topped the charts.

The bigger surprise came when a few months later Daniel Craig in an interview to NDTV Movies, echoed Dale's words, stating, "I think she (Shilpa) looks great and has a killing figure, just right for a Bond girl". Coincidentally, during Shilpa's Big Brother win, the same public relations guy handled the media for Priyanka's too.
