He has bowled another googly. The Kerala boy was in Bombay to announce his endorsement of a soap brand with Priyanka Chopra, immediately sparking rumours about a starry romance.
India’s ace paceman Shanthakumaran Sreesanth tackles questions from Hiren Kotwani
How come a Lux soap ad?
You should have asked this question when Shah Rukh Khan did the commercial. No guy in the world would refuse to do an ad with gorgeous women. As children,we’ve seen ads of Hema Malini endorsing the soap. Now, it’s Priyanka Chopra.. that’s cool.
So will we see you in a bath tub with rose petals?
( Smiles )You never know. Even, I have six pack abs to flaunt. So I wouldn’t mind getting into a bath tub with rose petals.
You’ll be playing for Preity Zinta’s Mohali team in the IPL. How has your interaction with her been?
Preity is a really good motivator. Besides, Yuvraj Singh is the captain. I’m looking forward to playing in Mohali.. that’s where I first got Sachin paaji out.
" Priyanka is a very good friend. I wouldn’t ever hide the fact that I like someone. I’m very real. I don’t shy away from speaking the truth. But besides Priyanka , even Kareena Kapoor is a good actress."What if Preity Zinta offers you a role with her or an item song in a movie?
Right now, my focus is on cricket. As and when that happens, I’ll see. I’m told I can dance pretty okay, but that’s only when we party. Yeah, I’m a crazy movie buff. I try to see the new releases as soon as I can. Even during tours abroad, I see films only in cinema halls. Preity has been a favourite. When I was in the 12th grade, I had plastered her posters inside my wardrobe. Madhubala is another favourite.
Not Priyanka Chopra? Apparently, you’ve been close friends.. and talk on the phone for hours.
Priyanka is a very good friend. I wouldn’t ever hide the fact that I like someone. I’m very real. I don’t shy away from speaking the truth. But besides Priyanka , even Kareena Kapoor is a good actress. And of course, Sridevi and Madhuri Dixit
So whom are you seeing currently?
Turning to big brother Dipu Santhan. Whom am I seeing? No one. I’m single, single, single.. ready to mingle, mingle, mingle.
And whom do you have a crush on?
Asks his brother again... (laughs ) Do I have any crush right now? I’m looking for a dream girl.. actually, I develop a crush on some girl or the other wherever I go.
Have your teammates teased you about the tape of a conversation between Priyanka Chopra and you.. the one that was leaked to the media?
Not yet. But I’m sure they’ll rag me about it soon.
Did you rag Mahendra Singh Dhoni about Priyanka and Yuvraj Singh about Deepika Padukone when they were in the news for their.. umm.. affairs?
No. We don’t take such subjects in the dressing room. We don’t ask one another about our private lives.
How do you handle female adulation?
I follow a simple theory. Everyone has a heart but I have a city inside.
