Yer honour, someone planted the chinkara!
Sonia points us to the WTF quote of the day, which features Govinda talking about Salman Khan:
Nothing fails like success. Controversies are often created around young stars. I am praying for Salman.
These words were spoken in the context of Salman being given a jail sentence in the chinkara poaching case. Perhaps Govinda’s next film will be about how some miscreants, jealous of a young star’s success, conspire to place a chinkara in the way of a bullet he casually fires in a random direction. Such conspiracy.
Unrelated news item: “Bachchan crazy for wife Aishwarya.”
I don’t think much of either Aishwarya’s acting or her brains, but she certainly ended up with the right guy, given the rubbish that came before. And I don’t mean the tree.
