RB’s very own Shah Rukh Khan – the day I became a supermodel

In the year 2006, Shah Rukh Khan (arguably India’s most popular movie star) made an appearance in a bath tub for a beauty soap.
In India, this was the first appearance of a male in the segment traditionally dominated by gorgeous women.

Now, I am a die hard optimist. I would like to believe that what happened to me last Saturday was my first step towards becoming a SUPERMODEL!

One of the numerous perks of being at Reckitt Benckiser is that we have a conference at the end of the year in a foreign locale.
This year, RB is taking us to exotic Bali (more on that later).�
There are videos shot by each region in line with different awards to be presented. In RB, we are used to competing for everything … and in this case it was for the best music video.

The setting was rustic, the song catchy and the actors … a little wet behind the ears.�
There was a part where we had to showcase the fragrance of Dettol soap, and Mr Sharma (Area Sales Manager, Delhi) vociferously ensured that I got the role.

Delhi is not Siberia, but is quite cold in November. Taking a bath with cold water is honestly not amusing, more so when you have to do it in front of a hundred people!

The shirt came off and the body was soaped repeatedly over multiple takes. Several shivering moments and half a bar later, the director was finally satisfied.
I honestly hope they at least digitally edit my 2 pack to a 6! 

People, I want to get into branding … but with my clothes on!
