NRI model, Padma Lakshmi divorce
British author Salman Rushdie
London, July 02, 2007
Ravinder Sodhi
British author Salman Rushdie,
60, well known for his novel "The Satanic Verses,"
which hurted many Muslims and sparked death threats that forced
him to live in hiding for nine years, has agreed to divorce Padma
Lakshmi, 37, because of her desire to end their marriage. In 1989,
the late Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, Iran's religious leader, called
on Muslims to kill Rushdie.

They were married in 2004 and she was his fourth wife and they
had no children.
Padma Lakshmi started her career as a model
and has since acted in movies and television shows and written cookbooks.
She hosts the U.S. cooking show "Top Chef" on the Bravo
cable network.

"Top Chef" on the Bravo cable network:
- Padma Lakshmi, already known internationally as an actress and
award-winning writer, is now also the host of the top-rated TV
series Top Chef on Bravo.
- Her second cookbook Tangy, Tart, Hot & Sweet, a follow up
to her award-winning debut Easy Exotic (winner of the International
Versailles Prize for Best First Cookbook), is a much larger endeavor
filled with over 150 recipes from around the world and intriguing
personal memoirs. Look out for it in the late spring of
2007.
- Top Chef, in which she is a judge as well as host, pits 15 talented
contestants against one another over three tense months. Each
week, Padma will tell one of them to "pack your knives and
go."

include hosting Rai Television's Dominica In, a live variety show
which became Italy's highest rated program. For The Food
Network, she hosted Padma's Passport where she cooked diverse
low-fat cuisine based on her best selling book Easy Exotic. Lakshmi
has also hosted a documentary series called Planet Food (broadcast
on The Food Network and worldwide Discovery Channel), in which
she journeyed to countries such as Spain and India. Padma has
also appeared on UPN's Star Trek: Enterprise.\
- Padma Lakshmi is also an accomplished writer and the author
of Easy Exotic for Miramax Books for which she won the International
Versailles Event for best cookbook by a first time writer. The
book is a low calorie, low fat ethnic cookbook and is currently
in its second printing in soft back. She has contributed
to such magazines as American Vogue, Gourmet and Harper's
Bazaar.
Originally known as the first internationally successful Indian
supermodel, Padma Lakshmi started modeling while an exchange student

and Alberta Ferretti and starred in campaigns for Versus and Roberto
Cavalli.
