SRK and Preity at IPL Auction Meet

Shahrukh Khan and Preity Zinta were at the IPL auction meet to bid for the players. Both the Bollywood stars are already the proud owners of IPL teams Kolkata (Shahrukh Khan) and Mohali (Preity Zinta). Shahrukh Khan and Preity Zinta bided real smart to get some of the most outstanding names from the world of international cricket.

It seems that King Khan has sworn not to stop after the success of Om Shanti Om. The kind of money he has invested in this venture is shocking. I have no idea from where did he get all that money from. Agreed that Juhi Chawla’s husband, Jai Mehta, is also involved, but over $75.09 million? For the sake of Shahrukh Khan I hope things go right, or else SRK would end up just like Amitabh Bachchan. I’m referring to the Miss World contest Big B tried to organize which went horribly wrong.

We know that Preity Zinta does not have that much money and she was just representing her boyfriend, Ness Wadia. Probably the Wadias thought that they needed some glamour for their new venture.

There are other big names like Mukesh Ambani and Vijay Mallya who bought Mumbai and Bangalore, but they have so much money in their bank accounts that it would hardly matter if anything goes wrong.
