Milind Soman who once courted controversy for his affaire d` heart with spunky model Madhu Sapre as also for his bare-dare ad for Tuff shoes with her, is today an actor who has opted for roles that many would not be enthusiastic about.
Whether in Mani Shankar`s 16 December, the Tabu starrer Tarkeib, or even the recent Arjun Sajnani directed Agni Varsha, where he pranced around in a dhoti, Milind has underplayed his Greek God persona.
The guy who seeks relaxation in trekking and counts Somerset Maugham`s `Of Human Bondage` his favourite book, has freed himself from the trappings of stardom. Refusing to be saddled by a chocolate-hero image, a suave and sober Milind places mind over muscle.A `Model Man` we call him.
