Salman: lucky mascot for Mumbai Heroes?

Actor Sohail Khan’s team, Mumbai Heroes defended themselves well against opponents Telegu Warriors, a change from the former’s abysmal performance in the last season of Celebrity Cricket League (CCL). Even though the opening match of the new season ended in a draw, the star studded cricketing extravaganza seemed to be a hit with the crowds.

The opening match, held at the Sharjah Cricket Association Stadium in Sharjah on Friday, managed to rope in a large number of spectators who seemed to be entertained by the excitement on the grounds, coupled with the presence of actor Salman Khan at the stadium.

Khan was present from the beginning till the end of the match, looking visibly nervous but cheering on his brother Sohail’s team. “We all feel Salman bhai is indeed our lucky charm. It was really great of him to sit through the entire match to cheer us up, sparing  time from his tight shooting schedule,” said one of the team members.

The opening ceremony started on a musical note with performances by Devi Sri Prasad, famous for composing the song Dhinka Chika from Salman Khan starrer Ready, and singer Atif Aslam. Afterwards, the teams took center stage along with their owners, captains and brand ambassadors.

Suniel Shetty: The Action Hero Will Be Back With His Next Film

Bollywood actor Suniel Shetty, who made his debut as an action hero with the 1992 film Balwan, shifted to romantic and comedy films with Hera Pheri in 2000. The fans still loved him and enjoyed his pairing with Akshay Kumar in Phir Hera Pheri in 2006.

However, he failed to attract fans when he turned producer under his ‘Popcorn Motion Pictures’ banner in 2003. He produced some flop films like Khel and Rakht. The 49 year old He-Man of Bollywood has now realized his fans love him most for his action avatar so he has decided to return to action with his next film.

Suniel is now working hard on his body and hitting the gym to be in perfect shape. The macho actor wants to offer some extra-ordinary actions in his next film, which will be a contemporary patriotic movie. He said that the script is ready for the film, which will have him in the central role. However, Suniel wants to keep it under wrap until everything is finalized. A lot of commando outfit can be expected in it but it will not be produced under his banner.

The actor, who has recently given a wonderful performance in the movie Red Alert, said that he wants to be very sporty again and for this he has become very lean and ripped. He is a ‘Black Belt’ holder in kick boxing in real life and has remained one of the fittest actors in Bollywood since last two decades.

We wish the second innings of Suniel as action hero turns out to be a successful one!
