Years before Milind Soman became a top model, he did not even know anything about the existence of modeling as a profession. On Monday, Milind Soman shared a picture from the year 1989 and he revealed that it was for a shoot for his first ever advertising campaign. He captioned the post: "My first advertisement campaign 1989! Before this campaign I did not even know that modeling was a profession. It was a surprise phone call, out of the blue, from a person who had seen me somewhere, asking me to shoot a few pics." The actor added that initially he was reluctant to shoot. However, he changed his mind when he was offered Rs 50,000 for it. "Having been a really shy boy, I was reluctant. But when they offered Rs 50,000 for an hours work, I had to say yes. Thank you Rasna Behl," wrote Milind Soman. Well, all we can say is that that money was indeed well-spent.
