Milind Soman treats fans with throwback photo from his first modelling assignment
Mumbai/IBNS: Model-turned-actor Milind Soman took his fans down the memory line by sharing a photo from his first modelling assignment which was way back in 1989.
He also shared that before this assignment, he didn't even know that modelling was considered a profession.
In an Instagram post, Milind revealed that he used to be a "shy boy" and took up the assignment when he was offered Rs. 50,000 for an hour's work.
"My first advertisement campaign 1989! Before this campaign I did not even know that modeling was a profession. It was a surprise phone call, out of the blue, from a person who had seen me somewhere, asking me to shoot a few pics. Having been a really shy boy, I was reluctant. But when they offered Rs 50,000 for an hours work, I had to say yes 🤓 thank you Rasna Behl," he wrote.
After tasting success as a model, Milind took up acting with television shows such as Sea Hawks and Captain Vyom.
He has also acted in films such as Rules: Pyaar Ka Superhit Formula, Jurm, Bajirao Mastani and Chef.
At present, Milind is gearing up for the release of ALTBalaji series Paurashpur, in which he plays a warrior named Boris.
