* Aindrita Ray who was in hiding for the CCL matches that happened before Sunday finally showed up to support the boys in blue. In a one shouldered tailormade team jersey, she was seen cheering for the Bulldozers.
She said that she showed up at the match despite a slight cold because she wanted to kill the rumours about a dispute between her and Ashok Kheny doing the rounds. Her co-brand ambassador, Nidhi Subbaiah still failed to surface at this match as well.
* Sonu Sood has a huge fan following in Bengaluru. While the cricket match was in progress and Mumbai was fielding, Sonu was fielding close to the boundary. Fans from the stand were cheering for him. They even threw paper planes in his direction. Sonu picked all the bits of paper, put it in his pocket and greeted them with a smile and bow.
* Bengaluru cricket fanatics were very disappointed at the start of the Mumbai Heroes and Karnataka Bulldozers match. The stadium was full. Many say that the reason so many people showed up was to catch Salman Khan, Ritesh Deshmukh and Suniel Shetty in action. To their dismay, the first two stars did not even show up at the stadium and Suniel Shetty could not play because of an injury. Better luck next time!
* The Art of Living guru, Sri Sri Ravi Shankar who has touched a million lives was spotted at the Frankfurt airport on Tuesday in his customary white robes. He was at the Lufthansa service counter in the company of two ladies. One of them was a foreigner and the other lady who was an Indian was seen sorting out some ticket issue at the counter. He took the business class on the flight that reaches Bengaluru on Wednesday.
* Actress Sanjjanaa was sporting a CCL jersey at the Karnataka Bulldozers and Mumbai Heroes match. High on we wonder what, she was seen jumping and prancing around. Swaying flags of both teams she could not stop grinning. Somebody observing this bubbly girl said “See this is how you impress both industries and get roles in both films.” Let’s hope this was her plan as well.
Who, what, when, where, why
Who was spotted cheering at the CCL for her team, Chennai Rhinos? Sameera Reddy who says she loves this concept of bringing glamour and cricket together.
What happened to actress Meghana? The chilled out actress lost her temper and had a big showdown with her gym instructor! It was such a big scene that all those present during the “cat-fight” had to pacify the actress, as she went on abusing her instructor. Apparently after a local television channel shot her fitness routine at her regular gym, the actress blew her top off. The instructor’s advice to the Meghana to get rid of her recent paunch is what put her off. Well darling, sometimes the bitter pill of truth needs to be taken with a smile.
When did George Clooney fans get agitated? At a recent screening of The Descendants at a multiplex. There were a series of technical glitches, which led to a delay of nearly one hour. Right after the interval, the power went off altogether. The audience was agitated and demanded a refund, even as the harrowed staff members tried to assuage everyone. They offered a reimbursement if the movie could not be resumed but somehow managed to get the show up and running. As a complimentary gesture, the audience was offered free popcorn, personally delivered to each seat.
Where are Deccan Chargers fans going if they win a contest? On a helicopter ride over the city if they are the lucky ones! Not bad for cricket crazy frenzy!
Why is Dhanush coming to Bengaluru? The Kolaveri Di boy is coming with Anirudh, Shruti Hassan and his wife Aishwarya for a concert in the second week of February. But what is more interesting is that the young chap is in fact raising funds through this concert to help an animal NGO in Kolar Gold Fields that houses 280 black bucks. Seems like this hot veggie is definitely working harder to keep up his fans expectations.
