It looks like Amrita Arora's relationship with her Pakistani cricketer boyfriend Usman Afsal is going strong. The actress plans to tie the knot in a couple of years.

"I'm certain this is the man for me. We'll make it legal whenever it's the right time for both of us," Amrita told.

If Amrita marries Usmsan, she will be the second Bollywood actress after Reena Roy to marry a Pakistani cricketer.

Recently, the besotted cricketer not only flew to Mumbai to be with the actress but actually accompanied her to the set of STAR Plus' quiz show "Kaun Banega Crorepati" ("KBC") where she went to cheer her sister Malaika Arora Khan and brother-in-law Arbaaz Khan who were shooting for the friendship special episode.

"Not just Usman but also his brother from Pakistan. They were both down. So, when I decided to join my sister and Arbaaz on the sets of "KBC" Usman and his brother joined me there.

"Everyone else had their loved ones there - even Shah Rukh's wife Gauri had visited for this celebrity special. So why not me?"

Other celebrities to feature on the special episode are Karan Johar, Farah Khan, Farhan and Zoya Akhtar.

This was Amrita's first appearance on Indian television with her across-the-border beau.

The actress, who turned 27 on Jan 31, had to cancel her birthday party because of the Mumbai Municipal Corporation elections. But she promises she will soon throw a party.

"I was shooting for a new comedy 'Kuch Love Kuch Drama' with Rajpal Yadav and a whole ensemble cast. They brought in a cake at midnight. It was fun. I'll have my birthday bash as soon as my new home is ready in a couple of months."
