Guess who?

Milind Soman, the country's first male supermodel, remains a heartthrob despite retiring from the ramp some years ago and not being seen in too many film projects.

But the model-turned-actor isn't averse to experimentation, and has traded his boyish look for this bearded messiah-styling, as we saw at the Mumbai premiere of Mission Impossible III on Saturday.

We last heard Milind was working on an epic Indo-Japanese project called Valley Of Flowers, that also stars Naseeruddin Shah and is said to be based on an Himalayan legend.

Legend or not, this 41-year old is sure taking age in his stride.

What do you think of Milind's new look?
