Actor Shah Rukh Khan has said that he has no cash for top players. It’s being said politics and the recession have hit Shah Rukh Khan’s plans for his Kolkata team in IPL Season 2.
However, SRK is always an optimist. “I hope Kolkata be the winner this time,” he said. The absence of Akhtar and Butt will be keenly felt, though, especially as the embargo is a big financial burden, he added.
That’s not cricket! Later in the evening, SRK had a meeting with teammates John Buchanan and Sourav Ganguly.
It has made things difficult. “We don’t have much money left,” he said. “We couldn’t bid for expensive players like Kevin Pietersen. Their starting salaries are, like, 1.3 million dollars. We’ve already spent that.”
