The Nescafe Classic commercial put Maushmi Udeshi in the limelight. The model enamoured audiences with her long flowing tresses. Her appearance in Bally Sagoo's 'Noorie remix' video as a sari-clad spirit was equally impressive.

Maushmi launched her career in the fashion industry as a ramp model for fashion institutes like NIFT and J.D. Institute of Fashion Technology. Initially, she also worked with designers, Krishna Mehta and Bhamini Subramaniam.

The realisation that ramp modelling is not as paying prompted her to take up assignments in ad-films and music videos. Kit Kat, Aristocrat Whisky, Taj Hotels, Bakemans and NIIT are among her popular ad films. Her lovely face shows up frequently and prominently in magazines like Femina, Cosmopolitan, Elle and Verve.

Maushmi is a trained Bharatnatyam dancer. She is sincere and passionate about the classical art. In fact, she says, "If I wasn't a model, I would have been a classical dancer."

She would certainly love to act in films and has already taken a step in this direction by shooting for a short art film titled 'The Tight Rope Walker'.

Maushmi plays a girl 'in love with death'. Quite an offbeat subject, that! Apparently, Maushmi seems satisfied with her individual performance. The film has been selected for the Venice Film festival.

Host Shekhar Suman recently invited her on his popular celebrity talk show, 'Movers and Shakers'.

"My future lies in the film industry", she says. Having bagged a few roles in South Indian films, which she feels, have rich production values and are directed efficiently, she is mulling over her next career move.

She wants to work with top directors in the South before turning to Bollywood and, if everything goes right, even to Hollywood.
