And… it’s finally happened. The Indian Playboy Bunny has arrived! Except she’s still a white girl and um… a slightly seasoned one if you know what I mean! Gee thanks Heff. 🙂 *lol* I’m just kidding, I’m guessing these girls are the head bunnies since they got to be in all the important pix? Anyway, the official unveiling happened last night amidst a starry turnout of Imran Khan, Akshay Kumar, Sachiin Joshi, Sohail Khan, Riteish Deshmukh, Ekta Kapoor and more check it out!

This folks is the Indian Playboy Bunny costume! I see a smattering of a sari in there somewhere and a valiant attempt at “sheer” modesty. What do you think?

The press note explains, “Playboy engaged New York based fashion designer, Mohini Tadikonda to re-style the iconic Bunny costume while preserving the core elements of the traditional costume. With a two-piece bodice and the addition of the sari and sheer skirt, the accessories for the Bunny costumes – ears, cuffs, collar, bow tie and the signature Bunny tail – stayed the same. This new costume is a celebration of India’s rich culture and the Americana of the classic Playboy Bunny Costume.”

(Yes they did say Americana that’s not a typo 🙂
