Bollywood's 'bad man' Gulshan Grover [ Images ] will act as a villain in the next James Bond [ Images ] film.

'Appearing in the film will be an honour for me and my country. I'm sure that I will be able to give it an Indian flavour,' the 50-year-old actor told a British daily.

Grover will star opposite British actor Daniel Craig [ Images ], the new 007, who's closer to the cold-blooded killer conceived by Ian Fleming in Casino Royale [ Images ], the Mirror said.

Craig said recently that he hated handguns. He was also dismissive of Bond's preferred method for making a vodka Martini. The actor likes his neither shaken nor stirred, and without ice. 'I love a Martini straight up. I don't think anybody makes a Martini stirred any more,' he told OK magazine.
