The 21-year-old, who married the country’s most eligible bachelor, is an incurable romantic with little interest in cricket  On the field, he is known for his grip on the game. On Sunday morning, as the nation woke up to the news of the Mahendra Singh Dhoni's engagement and wedding, the world's most exciting cricketer stumped us with his grip on matters off the field too. In a fast and furious spell, MSD got engaged to Kolkata girl Sakshi Rawat in a well-guarded resort in the foothills of the Himalayas. Within hours he married her in a ceremony which was out of bounds for the media, at a luxurious resort in Dehradun.

A source close to the cricket star revealed, "Sakshi was a trainee with Taj Bengal, Kolkata, in 2008, when the two met." Prodded by their fami

I am not a cricket aficionado. But, from Saturday night to Monday morning, there is nothing about Mahendra Singh Dhoni that I don’t know. That’s not bad since he does don the India colours.

Some reports suggest that Dhoni had developed cold feet and didn’t want to marry before the World Cup. But both sets of parents ‘intervened’ to set things on course. Once on course, there was no stopping the flow of information. We know about Ashish, the man whose ghoodi (the ghoodi has two names Rani and Bobby) MSD rode to th

Presently, he is busy with his next venture ,   Saat Khoon Maaf,   playing the husband of the talented beauty Priyanka Chopra. Currently, Neil is shooting at Coorg. “We have just started shooting in Coorg, and it's raining heavily here. But I love it. This is a unique film with challenging roles for every character in the film, especially for Priyanka ,” says Neil. Neil is one of the seven husbands of Priyanka Chopra. “ I play the first husband of Priyanka in the film. She has shot many scenes with her other husbands, like Naseeruddin Shah, John Abraham and Anu Kapoor,” says Neil, who seems quite excited about the role. “It’s really a tough role. Fortunately, Piggy Chops and all her husbands, including me and John, have gone through a brief workshop before shooting started. It was a good experience for me,” adds Neil. Praising the director, he says, “Who will not work with Vishal Bharadwaj? He is such a great director, and Saat Khoon Maaf is going to be a diffe
