Deepika's 'glamour' to rev-up Force India

Mumbai (IANS): Vijay Mallya, chairman of Force India F1 team, has roped in actress Deepika Padukone to be the face of his team.

Deepika said, if she could manage time from her busy Bollywood schedule, she would love to be one of the team's 'speed divas' and travel around the world for the Formula One Grand Prix event 2009.

"I may make brief appearances during MTV's reality show, 'The Fast and the Gorgeous' and I'm looking forward to it," said Deepika as she sat on a McLaren-Mercedes-powered Formula One car to unveil MTV-Force India's The Fast and the Gorgeous hunt for the 'speed divas' here.

Four 'speed divas' will be chosen from 20 contestants. Deepika, daughter of badminton champion Prakash Padukone, loves sports and excelled in badminton in school. Asked what is common between badminton and car racing, she said: "Speed".

Force India Formula One team's maiden performance on the international race track last year was not up to the mark. "But to be qualified to take part in Formula One Grand Prix itself was no mean achievement," said Mallya. Mallya, however, warned the Indian car race lovers not to expect "miracles" from the Force India team during the prelims.

"The Grand Prix event from Barcelona onwards will be the real test for all the teams," he said. Mallya, who took the initiative to put India on the international car racing track, said he will be a proud man when Force India will host the first Indian Grand Prix in 2011.

who's comparing? I'm saying sonam effect... where she was interested in racing.

She did a photoshoot for Kingfisher and that one guy who people were claiming was her new bf because she took a picture with him was the guy who photographed most of them.. (and he went to photography school in my town)

Seriously. One can't open a topic without Sonam's name being brought in. (same goes for Sonam topics where Deepika's name gets brought up for no reason at all)

Their sisters?😲😲 When did that happen?

As for fans.. well. We like certain people, but that doesn't mean we dislike the other ones. I don't know much about Sonam, never watched Saawariya, but will watch Delhi 6. It looks interesting. Most fans, I agree, seem to really hate each other.. sad thing since they get along just fine.

why bring in sonam!

Anyway it good for her something different ...love speed !
