We all know what it takes to hit that note to send the male libido racing like the cars on an F1 circuit.

This month's issue of 'The Man' does just that with the sultry beauty Riya Sen. A girl who made her first appearance at the tender age of 16 has certainly come a long way with roles and a bod that people would kill to possess quite literally.

Making her first appearance in a music video, Riya concealed the bomb that would come in time. It wasn't till four years later that she exploded on the Bollywood scene with her sizzling performance in the film Style.

Since then on, there has been no looking back for this stunner as she is by far the only female to grace the much talked about Daboo Ratnani calendar six times in a row.

However, it wasn't her films that made her rise to the zenith; in fact it was quite contrary to her career. But being not just a femme that has been endowed with looks, Riya certainly has the brains, who ever said that beauty and brains don't mix?

This month in 'The Man', Riya literally sets pulses racing as she appears draped in an evening gown and flanked by gently burning candles that give her complexion that perfect dusky tone, enough to make any stone heart melt away to oblivion.
