While Olympians are breaking atheletic world records nonstop in London, hot Bollywood film star Sherlyn Chopra, 28, from India is breaking an altogether different kind of record by being the first woman from India to pose nude for Hugh Hefner's famous Playboy magazine.

Chopra wrote to Playboy to express her interest in stepping out of her clothing and into the unclaimed role, and Playboy wrote her back, Chopra said, "within three to four days," reported BBC Hindi. Hefner himself corroborated the news by taking to Twitter and confirming that Chopra would appear in the November issue of Playboy.

"I have become the first Indian to pose naked for Playboy and nobody can take away that achievement from me," Chopra, who has had small roles in a number of Bollywood films like Time Pass, Game and Red Swastik, said. However, Chopra's "achievement" will not be celebrated by her Hyderabad friends and loved ones, as Playboy is banned all throughout India.

Chopra enjoyed meeting Hef and the playmates when she flew out to the Playboy mansion in Los Angeles for her photo shoot. "I had fun meeting him and his girlfriends," she said. "I am thinking of making him my idol because he lives his life on his terms and conditions. I also live my life on my terms and conditions."
