Career

Film career

Carol played a cameo role in the movie Being Cyrus. She also appeared in the music video for the song "Right Here Right Now" in the movie Bluffmaster!, starring Abhishek Bachchan. She was a contestant on Bigg Boss 1, the Indian version of Celebrity Big Brother where she became the 1st runner-up.

Wardrobe Malfunction

During the 2006 Lakme Fashion Week in Mumbai, Carol Gracias experienced a "wardrobe malfunction", when her halter top slipped off, completely exposing her breasts.[3] She recovered quickly enough and completed the walk, holding her top in place. This minor incident caused a huge furor, with some members of the public accusing the organisers of the show of promoting obscenity. The matter was raised in the Maharashtra Legislative Assembly, where the members condemned the organisers of the show.[4]

Later, a local court ordered the police to investigate the incident, after a social activist, Prakash Rajdev, registered an FIR against the organisers of Lakme India Fashion Week and the models involved, alleging that the incidents were intentional and the models indulged in "nudity and obscenity" which constituted offences under the Indian Penal Code.[5]
