Salman Khan, Katrina Kaif Make Separate Bids

Monday, March 22, 2010

By now you must have got the breaking news that Sahara Group won the bid for the IPL team Pune for a staggering $370 million yesterday.

Along with Saif Ali Khan and Kareena Kapoor there was another Bollywood couple who participated in the bid. Both Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif were present in Chennai for the bidding of the new IPL teams but they placed the bids separately.

The Barbie doll of Bollywood was there representing Matrix along with the Adani Group from Ahmedabad and was vying for Pune team, as was Salman. However, Salman made a separate bid. Why?

Katrina clarified this to a tabloid: “I wasn’t bidding with Salman…I was not bidding at all. Salman had put in a separate bid.”

But as things turned out, none from Bollywood could grab the golden opportunity of owning an IPL team.

Salman, who was quite confident about his win, reportedly had a party planned back at home to celebrate the victory. Par yeh ho na saka. And the man is now reportedly upset, and suspects “foul play by vested interests.”
