Hollywood hunk Vin Diesel, whose film Babylon A.D. is ready to hit the theatres in India says, "For me, India is a fairytale land. I want to visit it, but I don't want it to be a whirlwind trip. I'd love to do rock climbing in the Himalayas. I've heard the beaches are awesome too."

Like his Hollywood peers, Vin too is fascinated by Indian beauty. "Indian women have a strange serenity and simplicity combined with this strong go-getter attitude that is reflected in their body language. That's a complete killer. Beauty with brains is always attractive. I have seen pictures of your actresses. They look out of this world. I bet they're amazingly talented too. No wonder, they're so famous the world over," he says.
Vin adds, "I haven't seen any Bollywood movie. I have heard they are mostly romances and dramas with good music. If your movie makers think that I'm good for a role they can send me the script."

The 41-year-old macho actor has a five-month-old daughter Hania Riley, from his model girlfriend Paloma Jimenez. When quizzed whether marriage was on the cards he says, "I am honoured that my fans want to be a part of my life. But I'll let the news out only when Paloma and I decide on taking the next step. I don't want too much speculation about my personal life." Does the action hero have a soft side? "I don't enjoy just about anybody entering my private space, but I do like spending time with my pals. Paloma has been a calming influence. She's given me this beautiful angelic daughter who makes my heart melt every time I see her," he answers.

Vin ends, "I am an ordinary guy. Ilike to enjoy a lazy weekend. Vin Diesel is kind of quiet. He just likes to let all the peace around sink into him. He likes to absorb the happy moments and feel refreshed."
