Indian businesswoman Ayesha Thapar design the pages of men’s magazine Maxim India for the month of February 2010.

Here you have the interview for Maxim India.
Hi Ayesha, You personify new India—confident, smart, sexy and unafraid. how do you feel?
I am very comfortable in my own skin and I have a very strong sense of self. Being comfortable with “sexy” is very liberating for a woman, it’s a way of celebrating yourself and your feminity.
A think-tank says you’re hotter than MANY actors.
That’s a matter of opinion. To some I may be hot, to others I may not be.
Can’t take our eyes off you. competing with a lot of guys, are we?
I try not to give too much importance to outward appearance. Enjoy it without taking it too seriously. My looks will evolve with time, so no point giving it any more importance than it already receives.
GOOD TO KNOW. what impresses you in a man?
Conviction, a strong sense of self, someone who’s not afraid to say black when the rest of the world is saying white because he believes in it. Someone with a lot of generosity, a good sense of humour, integrity and intelligence.
SOUNDS LIKE US. NOW, How do we get your attention?
My criteria of selection is open to all mortals. Most important is chemistry. It’s not something that can be defined, either you have it or you don’t.
The WORLD’s most attractive woman is...
There are so many. Women who are not defined by their beauty but by who they are as people. Salma Hayek is a beautiful strong woman, as are Angelina Jolie, Michelle Pfeiffer and Rekha.
You’d spread more love by... (it is valentine’s)!
I spread love everyday by trying to be compassionate . I don’t think one has to wait for Valentine’s to spread love.
