/> Now that you are part-owner of the Rajasthan Royals what plans do you have for the team?
If you're asking me this to find out how keenly I'm interested in this new venture then let me tell, you I'm hands-on into it.

When (boyfriend) Raj Kundra and and I decided to take the plunge into the IPL we did it with our eyes open and after much deliberation. In hindsight it appears uncanny because among all the IPL teams I've always felt the most connected with the Rajasthan Royals.

What would your contribution to the team be?
Well I am not going to bullshit myself into believing I've been brought in for my business acumen. The team had it all. They needed the glamour quotient and for that I am here.

But please, I am not going to be one of the pom-pom girls on the field, if that's what the spectators expect. I'm certainly not going to be the eyecandy of the venture.

So where will your glamour quotient come in?
In the music video, to begin with. Our next move is to shoot a music video. We want it to be the slickest and the best. Of course I'll be in it. Isn't that a given?

I've so many commitment in the coming months including my two films Sunny Deol's The man and R Sarath's Desire to complete. I'm not signing films crazily. So I can devote the time I want for the IPL.

So you're ready to shut up and bounce again?
(laughs) You could say that. Doing it for my own venture would be a pleasure.

Will Raj direct the music video?
Ah, that would be telling. Let's see. Raj is a crazy cricket fan. And why shouldn't he be? He's an Indian who lives in England.

All Indian men are crazy about cricket. And everyone knows cricket was born in England. So Raj has a double reason to buy a part of the IPL.

What about you?
I love cricket. I've inherited it from my father who's the craziest cricket fan I've ever met. The Rajasthan Royals are my gift to my father.

I thought it was Raj's Valentine gift for you?
Please! I'm sure there're other gifts awaiting me for Valentine's Day.

Like a marriage proposal?
That's mine for the asking anytime. Now that Raj is shifting business interests in India we just need to find the right moment to take the plunge.

The Bollywood-Cricket merger seems to be expanding?
Is had to be that way. Shah Rukh and then Preity went for the IPL. For me the right moment to do so was when Raj was ready for it.

Now I must make sure I've enough time to devote to the Rajasthan Royals.

I'll be there for their first match in March and all subsequent matches. Yeh mera vada hai.
