And to celebrate, they invited several actors and socialites to a suburban Mumbai hotel for the official launch party on December 19.
Here's a look at who turned up at the do to enjoyed the company of some rather tamely-dressed Playboy bunnies!

Neelam Kothari, Sanjay Kapoor and Maheep Kapoor made for a cheerful picture together.
While Neelam's fuschia jumpsuit was rather chic, the Kapoors were going for a grungy coordinated look, with Sanjay in ripped denims and Maheep in leather pants; both sported jackets.

Looks like starlet Gihana Khan wanted to fit in with Playboy's aesthetic -- her studded mini and platform heels were unabashedly sexy, although style-wise, toning such a look down is definitely recommended.

We don't know who the sleepy bloke with Ekta Kapoor is, but she certainly looked in the mood to party -- her asymmetric number was quite becoming and for once, she chose better footwear!

Giving us the thumbs-up, filmmaker Ram Gopal Varma was in his trademark dowdy all-black. He apparently doesn't believe in dressing up for parties!

Seen here are TV actresses Keerti Gaekwad Kelkar and Surveen Chawla.
Keerti was an absolute sartorial disaster in that unflattering black velour gown and while Surveen's sparkling cocktail was quite a statement, she should have eased up with the handbag and footwear bling.
