All Up In Smoke


It was outlandish to see so many people in black and gold jerseys lining up outside the gates of the Wankhede stadium, when The Mumbai Indians were to take on the Knight Riders.

I frankly don’t see the reason why most people are supporting the KKR just because King Khan owns the team. I mean if you love Sharukh so much, go to the movies and save yourself a good 450 bucks. Then take that money and spend it on chilled beers to beat the heat and take my word for it, that, that's enough beer to make you believe you're on a date with the Bollywood superstar better than spotting him from one end of North stand.

It troubles me to see people who have their binoculars glued to their face, not to see Surya or Sachin dismiss the Kolkata bowlers around the park, but rather stare at the stands in a hope to catch a glimpse of Shahrukh. Trust me for those who didn’t get a sight of him, you didn’t miss much. King Khan seemed a lot like Sylvester Stallone for the entirety of the game, that is, with just one expression on his face i.e. PISSED OFF! The only time he moved was when he was lighting up his Classic Milds to deal with his team’s dismal performance. To add insult to injury, he now has to deal with Mumbai Mirror’s front page exclusive of him smoking his lungs out and NGO’s saying he’s setting a bad example for children… Aryan are you listening?
