Caught In The Act
Bond and Magda rendezvous in Udaipur, India, whilst Bond is tracing the source of the faux antiquity. The pair enjoy an outdoor candlelight dinner before retiring with a bottle of champaign. 007 discovers her 'little Octopussy' - much to his bemusement - before Magda makes a sweeping exit and Bond is captured by the substantially less charming Gobinda.

Biography
Born as Britt-Inger Johansson in September 1950, she began modeling at an early age. By age 20, she was enrolled in the Miss Sweden modeling competition and won her nation-wide competition.

Kristina Wayborn Octopussy (1983) Magda  

She made her Television debut six years later as Claudine in the made-for-TV Drama "Victory at Entebbe" which starred Kirk Douglas and Richard Dreyfuss. It was not long before James Bond was knocking on her door.

As a relatively fresh-faced actress but a stunning and professional model, Wayborn worked opposite Maud Adams - her Swedish co-star - and the pair apparently had a ball on set. She won the role by proving her ability and physical fitness to at least appear to be a skilled acrobat.

Cubby Broccoli spotted his newest Bond girl when he saw her performing in 1980's "The Silent Lovers". In this role she played the iconic Swedish silent film actress, Greta Gabo, in a 1930s set romance story between John Gilbert and Garbo. Gilbert was played by "Spin City" star, Barry Bostwick.

Beyond Bond, Wayborn made a token few TV appearances in '80s sit-com "The Love Boat" as well as adventure "MacGyver" and even the long-running American drama, "Dallas". Her most recent screen appearance was in the action-packed but poorly rated "Forbidden Warrior" (2004).

Shiv Niwas Palace is the hotel where James Bond stays in the movie Octopussy.

In the 1983 James Bond film Octopussy, several palaces in and around the town of Udaipur, India were used, most notably Shiv Niwas Palace (Bond's hotel), the Taj Lake Palace 
and Jag Mandir Palace which double as the home of Octopussy (played by Maud Adams) and Monsoon Palace (Kamal Khan's residence).

 

Shiv Niwas Palace
James Bond (played by Roger Moore) himself is staying in the Shiv Niwas Palace Hotel. The name of the hotel is mentioned by the tuk-tuk driver who picks up Bond and Vijay and we see Bond check in. Later, Bond plays at the hotel casino and has dinner with Magda (Kristina Wayborn) next to the swimming pool. Shiv Niwas Palace is a former residence of the Maharana of Udaipur, Rajasthan, located on the banks of Lake Pichola. The lake and the Taj Lake Palace can be seen from the hotel.

 

 

  

 

Jag Mandir Palace
The exterior shots of Octopussy's home were taken at the Jag Mandir Palace, which is also built on an island in Lake Pichola. The elephant statues that can be seen when Kamal Khan arrives on the large boat and when Bond arrives in his crocodiles submarine are part of Jag Mandir Palace, and not of the Taj Palace Hotel. The flower garden and pond, seen a few moments after Khan's and Bond's arrivals, are part of the Taj Lake Palace.

Monsoon Palace   Monsoon Palace appears as the residence of the villain Kamal Khan (Louis Jourdan)
Another film location in the area is Monsoon Palace, built on top of a hill, overlooking Udaipur. This palace appears as the residence of the villain Kamal Khan (Louis Jourdan), and is first mentioned in the film when Vijay tells Bond where Kamal Khan lives. Later, Bond is held captive in the palace, and dines there with Khan and Magda. Other sequences shot here include the arrival of the Soviet helicopter, the hunt for Bond on the grounds surrounding the palace after his escape and the finale with Octopussy's army attacking the palace.

Taj Lake Palace
Later in the film, Bond visits Octopussy's home, a structure which is another palace, the Taj Lake Palace, also known as the floating palace, now a hotel. Located on a natural foundation of 4 acres (16,000 m2) rock on the Jag Niwas island in Lake Pichola, the beautiful Taj Lake Palace hotel has 83 rooms and suites featuring white marble walls. Click here for prices and availability. The hotel can only be reached by boat (or crocodile suit) and features several filming locations, including the pond where Bond sees Octopussy and the terrace where Bond and Octopussy have a chat.

The palace was built in 1743 - 1746 under the direction of the Maharana Jagat Singh II as a royal summer palace. Over the years the palace deteriorated badly and only in the 1960s the palace was finally restored and turned into a hotel. In 2000, a second restoration was undertaken.
