IPL and Movies...

I have quite a lot of movies to review, but before I get down to that, a quick question... why would two great friends, SRK and Preity Zinta, fight between themselves at an auction to go ahead and end up spending 600K USD for an unknown Bangladeshi bowler, at ten or more times his base price? I mean, I am not complaining about how much he's worth - but hello, you could have just discussed between yourselves and saved so much money!

But then, well, it's ONLY 600K USD yaar... and it was good fun for the pretty Preity and SRK's representative, a certain ex Ms Chawla, I guess!

hehe good one. Mortaza's worth is another topic entirely. But yeah in the conflict between 2 stars( or 1 star and 1 superstar SRK), a third person benefited.

MRS Ambani went to the auction with our homework done - she wanted 25 yr old players who were young and energetic! When asked what she expected from the team - her answer was youth and energy! Apparently, that's all the knowledge you need to do business at the IPL.. the age of the guys you're looking for..

My only reaction to these incidents sometimes is that women who don't know squat about business shouldn't be given money to play around with..

I can't agree more.

And yes, this IPL we have one more lady to jhelofy - the laughing Shilpa Shetty who's come to add glamour (what the f*&^) to the Rajasthan Royals!
