IPL Awarded!

Well its been a week of LSD Lalit,Secrets and Dhoka. Oh Man!
I dread to switch the tv on,every time I did I'd hear of
something worse happening! Sorry couldn't blog yesterday was
at the Ipl awards,was hosting a small bit with Karan,he's
such a pro.
Nice to see the Cricket fraternity come together to celebrate
in the midst of all this controversy. There was tension
looming no doubt but Srk's act put a smile on everyone's face,
Yusuf,Bhajji ,Yuvi were such sports :) Don't know what to make
of the current scenario even we are taken aback with most of
the revelations despite being part of the league..Just seems
like one huge political war and definitely not about the sport,
which is sad. I have no idea of what the Complete truth is,that
only Time will tell..We have and want to cooperate in every
way to help this probe reach its final conclusion..till then
just want to say Lalit Made IPL, Made India Proud,Made the IPL
Cricket a feasible and viewed sport worldwide! Unfair to make
him the fall man without a fair trial!
Okay..enough of that Started shooting for Zara Nach Ke Dikha
shot for 22 hours at a stretch, there was a technical glitch
and had to shoot two episodes as to get the combination dates
of all artists again would have been impossible before the cut
off....well our lives are not as glamorous as they look!!!!
Got to say it was worth giving up my sleep,the acts came as a
surprise..dances were innovative,one of the acts actually made
 me cry! Happy they've raised the bar  and the competition gets
tougher. We go on air from 1st May. A must watch:)
Looking forward to the finals Mumbai vs Chennai.. As a mumbaite
my loyalties are with Mumbai. So like they say Let's concentrate
on the Sport and not the "Games".

Happy I am able to maintain this routine and keep my promise to
blog :) Tomorrow is the last RR match in Kolkotta,losing the
previous 2 dulled the possibilities of us getting into the Semis.
But me being the eternal positive thinker..think that there is
still a Divine chance!
My husband laughs when I discuss the permutations and combinations
of teams losing and winning in their matches and runrates etc..
Wondering if that could help us slip thru and qualify ;) but then
my pragmatic mind awakens and reminds me that most importantly WE
need to win the last one...Shane and the Team were pretty shattered..
hope it happens for their sake! Anyway whether that happens or not
got to say we all had a great time. This  surely was an enjoyable
ride. Will be even more emotional this year because if we don't win
the next match, this might be the last time we all meet as one RR
team (family) as most players go into the pot for the Auction in
a couple of months. Dunno how and what the new team is going to
look like but will miss the ones that won't be part of the Royals..
Love the Royals with a passion, so will stick by them whatever the
result. Highs and lows are part and parcel of life. So all packed
and fingers crossed for the next match, hoping for a win..hope is
what keeps us all going.
Its going to be a jam packed week. Start shooting for the new dance
show 'Zara nach ke dikha' press conferences, promo shoots and
meetings.. Love every bit of the madness..love life..and u all for
showing me so much love always. Till next friday No games only Sport;)
Duas and love

“IPL-Fever”

April 9, 2010 - 6:07 am 17 Comments

Its Friday already, enroute to Jaipur to attend an RR team dinner hosted by the
Royal family her highness Maharani Padmani Devi, who I completely adore because she
is so full of positive energy and showers me with so much love.

Having finally recovered from my fever caused by the excessive travelling for the
matches, had to take a break on the doctors persistence.. The Royals are coming into
their own and gaining momentum and better form with every win (touchwood!).  A proud
moment for us owners to see the younger boys taking full advantage of this platform
and taking on the responsibility. Every year the royals have “A” player to gloat
about as a precious find. This year we are spoilt for choice! Ojha has been
consistently good and fired even under pressure, Lumb nearly single handedly made
the score required to beat Punjab, extremely talented. Siddarth Trivedi became a
hero bowling the final death over, against Deccan whew!!!! (What a match that was!)  
An exceptional bowler, a mixed bag of surprises. Voges,Faiz ,Dole, Jhunjhunwala… these
are just a few names to mention for this past week but the whole team deserves the
accolades for being in the position they are in right now! Last but not the least
the Captain of the Ship Warnie:) a great tactician who leads from the front and
knows how to turn the game around in dire straits! It just reiterates that this is
no ORDINARY team! :) Halla bol! Ok enuff about cricket…

In the midst of all this shot for a jewellery brand and signed up for “Zara Nachke
Dikhaa” a new dance show on Star TV. Readying ROYALTY for the official opening to
public very soon!!!! Will make a formal announcement when that happens… And more..

Have to Thank you all for the wishes and prayers, there is a God who is listening to
them.
Lots of Love SSK xx

Good Friday

Wishing all near and dear a very Happy Easter. This has been a very exciting week
for me, four wins in a row has now catapulted RR to 4th place and what a roller
coaster its been! We all have our good days and bad days,the last match against
Delhi wasn’t a good day! We lost that battle but the War is not over. Good news for
all RR fans, Shane Watson has landed in India and if all goes well will be playing
for us tomorrow against Chennai :)  The Team has held fort pretty well considering
all the mishaps..the inclusion of Waston is a much needed shot in the arm for the
Royals!
Supposed to shoot an ad campaign for a jewellery brand but woke up feeling extremely
ill, the doctor has put it down to exertion, so had to call off the shoot cause I just
wasn’t up to it (felt terribly guilty). Its the first time I have ever had to cancel
on the day of a shoot :(
I am going to take a rain check on the Chennai Match, much as I want to be there..
need to get my energy back and the doctor has suggested that..but Raj and the entire
family will be there. I will be glued to the television and praying for our victory!
As for the statement nonchalantly made by a player calling RR an Ordinary side,I d
just like to say its a team with extraordinary talent and 2008 Ipl
champions….Ahem!!!!Not so ordinary after all !!:)
