Voted "Such a nice young man" for the second year running by the old ladies on his street, this devilishly handsome sophisticate with his insightful sense of humour and easy-going manner make him a must-invite to any social occasion.

"I look around for the ladies and there next to the fireplace is Amod, surrounded by this bevy of lasses. He's regaling them with his exploits in Kathmandu where he played tiddlywinks with a local chieftain and the lassies are just eating it up. I wish I knew how the lad did it." - Sean Connery

Athletically, Amod is no slouch. Well, actually he is, but the intent is there.

"Y’know that scene where I drive the sports car off the bridge and base-jump off the bonnet? I wasn't gonna do it until Amod showed me how." - Vin Diesel on the set of XXX

Amod has been described by his mom as "the most handsome boy of his Matric class", and even now the ladies have to give him a second look, but only because he regularly falls asleep on his tennis racquet.

"I caught his eye across the auditorium. The look he gave me ... I almost dropped the damned statue. [LAUGHS] Needless to say, if there were awards for best performance in a horizontal role, Amod would be my nomination." - Halle Berry on why she never attended her "Best Actress" Oscar after-party.

How about a scenario where our beloved politicians compete Survivor-style for voters' points — it would make elections a whole lot more transparent, and reality TV would get a shot of much-needed brain. Amod Munga lifts the lid on the next instalment of reality TV, SA-style.

What, Boeremag?
Despite poisoned oranges, Oom Vis, Popeye, and a seemingly foilproof breeding programme set to be located at the Armscor headquarters, the Boeremag still couldn't pull it off — so what's up with the Afrikaner A-team? Amod Munga investigates.

What would James Bond do?
Metrosexualism, reckons Amod Munga, is simply a guidebook for those of us who would like to be a little more popular with the ladies. Whether it’s deciding which fork to use or trying to find that little-clasp thingy on a bra in the dark, when in doubt, just remember the metrosexual motto: “What would James Bond do?”
