Yesterday was an interesting day, shot for a music video and ad for HDFC life insurance. It was a fun day, Graeme, Yusuf, Shane, Jadeja, Mahesh and me. Graeme taught me how to bat and Shane taught me how to spin the ball! We played for a bit and after I ran four times between the wickets I was gasping for breath! Now I respect my cricketers more, wonder how they do it, handling all that pressure, gawd! We actors have it easier, at least we get retakes… anyway it’s still a thankless job when they lose… Today I was all geared up for an exciting match. It was a beautiful day and a jam packed stadium. It started off well but we lost, wickets kept falling like 9 pins. Dunno what happened. Crickets not good for health when you’re a co-owner, ha ha. Well no one feels good losing, but I’ve taken it in my stride, hoping we have better luck next time. Like I say whoever plays the better cricket of the day deserves to win and today it was KingsXI. For all those Rajasthan Royal fans - keep the faith, be positive and wins will manifest. Off to Johannesburg tomorrow morning, another match day after… keeping my fingers crossed!

cant resist being a skeptic, when a leading personality starts to blog.. there is a sense of honesty that comes across very warmly from ur messages.. i am sure the fans will go crazy being connected with the real person, being able to read directly what is running in their star’s minds… esp if u manage to continue expressing urself so honestly.. .almost in an innocent (not to be mistaken with naivety) way…
congrats and good luck with ipl and other ventures..

Hi Shilpa Shetty, this is my first time I have been in your site as the your pictures are just a picture of what you look like and the movies are not who you are, but I was reading an article about Danielle Lloyd how she was stabbed in the leg and somehow there was a link to you with her on BigBrother.
That was the first time I saw how naturally attractive, strong minded and confident you are. Its probably why you were chosen for Bollywood. Bollywood does not make you seem like a strong minded person in the movies I have seen, though thats Bollywood.
BTW I’m very envious that you were taught how to spin bowl by the great Shane Warne, he is the greatest spin bowler of all times. I doubt anyone else in this century will surpass him.
