CLAUDIA CIESLA, the 22-year-old German actress-supermodel-singer, makes sure she always carries an idol of Hindu Lord Ganesha which she claimed brings her good luck. The idol was presented to her by a Vedic astrologer. She is reported to have said,“I love Hinduism's tolerance and peaceful thinking. I have visited many temples and prayed, which is helping me by way of hope and new energy.” Applauding her interest in Hinduism, Hindu statesman Rajan Zed has urged Ciesla to seriously further explore Hinduism, the world's third largest religion.

In a statement issued from Nevada today, Rajan Zed, President of the Universal Society of Hinduism, said that if she needed any help in her study of Hinduism, he along with other Hindu scholars would be glad to provide assistance. Ciesla plays Linda in the movie Karma (directed by M R Shahjahan), a crime thriller based on reincarnation. She has also acted in Italian television sitcom “Outsiders in Palermo”. She has played lead in a Punjabi film titled “Ki Jana Pardes” (Why go abroad) and she is a German journalist Serin in “10:10” (Arin Paul) in addition to delivering its title song.

Besides Bollywood, she is claimed to be getting offers from regional Indian cinema like Tamil, Bengali, Punjabi, and Marathi. It is reported that she is Catholic. Ciesla has reportedly said that she liked Hinduism very much and had discussed about Hindu topics such as reincarnation. She has been quoted as saying: "I think I am very close in my way of thinking and my living philosophy to be a Hindu. And I am sure I would like to be a Hindu when I have all the knowledge about it.”
