KRK offers 2cr to Mallika Sherawat

A fan recently congratulated Mallika Sherawat on a networking website for the success of her item number "Jalebi Bai".

The actress was quick to respond with a " Thank you" and all would have been well if only Kamaal Rashid Khan hadn't interrupted.

The former "Bigg Boss" contestant wasted no time in offering Mallika a role in his upcoming film. His offer was that if she agreed, she would be paid `2 crore and that if the film failed to become a super hit, he would in turn pay her `5 crore as compensation. The actress hasn't bothered to reply to the (tempting) offer yet, but her fans were quick to repudiate Khan and his claims.

Kamaal also went as far as saying that he needed an actor who could play a good boyfriend on screen and an actress who had three boyfriends. He then suggest that John Abraham and Mallika Sherawat would be perfect for the role of the on-screen couple that he wants.
Mallika's fans have been calling KRK names like Badnaami Ka Daag and Film Drohi online. But through all this, wonder what Mallika Sherawat is thinking!

LONDON: A billion-plus fans in India would be expecting a record 100th ton when Sachin Tendulkar walks out to bat against England in the first Test at Lord's but that is the last thing on the batting maestro's mind as he simply wants to enjoy during the tour.

Tendulkar, who is on a vacation in London with his family, insists that enjoying the game is the key to success.

"I am not thinking of records," Sachin was quoted as saying by The Daily Telegraph.

"I am just thinking of enjoying this tour. The secret to any performance is not in chasing records. I think about, 'What is the best way to enjoy the game, and how can I enhance that enjoyment factor?'

"If I enhance the enjoyment then, naturally, the standard of play becomes higher. To me, that is more important. If I am playing well, things can happen. I don't need to go around chasing them. It is a process. You construct a solid foundation and build on it."

Besides spending time with family, Tendulkar has been training here for the four-Test series while his team mates are set to join him soon from the West Indies.

Tendulkar said that being in England enables him to balance life by doing thing he will not be able to do in India due to the crazy fan-following.

"When I spend time in England, it is different. I get to do certain things that I wouldn't be able to do in India: to go into the park with my children, to do whatever they want to do, whether it be a game of soccer or cricket. I enjoy the best of both. The idea is to balance life in India with life away from India, to get the best of both and to be a happy man."

When asked about retiring from the game he has played for over 20 years, Tendulkar said: "I haven't. I am enjoying every moment. It has been fun. In fact, I am looking at how to enjoy the game more and how to improve the standard of play. It is about getting better. Nobody knows what is going to happen tomorrow. At least today I know that I want to enjoy cricket, to enjoy the moment."
