No moon crater for SRK
Well this could be a sad news for all overwhelmed SRK fans, who were on moon when a crater on moon was named after their idol, because the UN Outer Space Treaty does not allow anybody to claim celestial lands because they belong to the whole mankind.
Tanja Masson-Zwaan talking about the recent trend of celebrity craters on moon says, “The trouble is that, legally, nobody can own the moon or anything else in space, for that matter.”
Talking about the Lunar Embassy – Hope that sells people craters and land spaces on Moon, Masson says, “What Lunar Embassy is doing does not give people buying pieces of paper the right to ownership of the moon.”
International Astronomical Union on its website says, “As an international scientific organization, the IAU dissociates itself entirely from the commercial practice of “selling” fictitious star names or “real estate” on other planets or moons in the Solar System. Accordingly, the IAU maintains no list of the (several competing) enterprises in this business in individual countries of the world.”
Now that’s a steep fall from moon. Welcome back to gravity!!!

Priyanka holds her Swayamvar
No Priyanka Chopra is not going Rakhi Sawant’s way, but was only practising a little bit for her upcoming flick with Vishal Bharadwaj.
A source says, “At the event, Priyanka, probably deciding to do a rehearsal for her film with Vishal Bhardwaj, in which she is the only woman with seven husbands, decided to play a small game of swayamvar with a few male participants before crowning the winner.”
“Priyanka called three boys on stage. They were asked to propose to her in innovative ways. One of them did a very filmi number and even sang for her. She did not accept any but danced with all of them. It was an Indian themed fashion show. So, there was no better chief guest than the former Miss World herself, who, in a pink saree, looked stunning. But because much time had been spent on the swayamvar, when the time came for the main event which was the fashion pageant, the organisers realised they had reached the time limit and switched off the lights and sound. But Priyanka being the sport that she is, happily came on stage, crowned the winner in the dark and made a quick exit. “
That’s nice of you Piggy Chops.

Shilpa: We don’t owe an explanation to Pakistani Cricketers
Team owners refrained from selecting Pakistani cricketers for the upcoming season of Indian Premiere League(IPL) while this was not taken well by the media of both the nations, Shilpa Shetty believes that the team owners don’t owe an explanation to Pakistani cricketers.
She says, “We don’t owe an explanation on our decision on Pakistani players. The reasons for dropping are understandable in the current scenario. We would like the media and the people to react to such situations more sensibly.”
“We wanted the players to be in the country and at that point of time we were more worried about security. We did not want to take onus for their security.”
Kings XI Punjab team owner Preity Zinta referring brouhaha about droppingPakistani cricketers said, “They have just sensationalized the issue. We request the country to collectively handle the situation sensibly.”
Do you think dropping Pakistani players from IPL is a good idea or a bad idea?
