After that spanish guy she got hooked with this Diamond guy from Kenya...
Kim resurfaces with a 13 carat diamond!
Remember Kim Sharma? The model and Bollywood hottie known more for her fascination with cricket (read that as Yuvraaj Singh) than her last roles in films like Money Hai Toh Honey Hai and Daddy Cool? Sure you do! Well, she's back from Kenya.
But not to do films. Kim's here to get Bollywood interested in her two hotels with husband Ali Punjani ' one at Mombasa and the other at Masai Mara. Ali is the Kenyan businessman Kim eloped with and got married to on August 1, last year. Now she flashes a 13 carat diamond ring on her wedding finger! And, equally big solitaires in her ears. This is one Bollywood story that appears to have had a happy ending.
The buzz is that Kim, who has been staying in a five star hotel for a fortnight with her silver-haired mother, is here to invest in an IPL team. The former starlet rubbishes this rumour. "With my history on cricket, anything I say will be misconstrued," she said, adding, "I'm here to do research for my hotels." Reluctant to discuss her business interests "because Ali shuns publicity", the sex kitten admitted that she travels frequently for her "Mumbai fix". (The hotel staff claimed she comes to get her eyebrows and waxing done!) But this time around Kim is here to celebrate her 30th birthday (January 21) with her parents and sister. Ali is expected to fly down for the celebrations, perhaps with some more diamonds.
The couple met when Kim went to Kenya for a holiday. After dating for a short while, they secretly wed. "Since then I have been travelling regularly to Pune (where my parents stay) and Mumbai," she smiled. Kim doesn't really have any friends in Bollywood so there is no one she misses.
"My dog is with me in Mombasa," she shrugged, "and my husband, a nice, discerning, even-tempered man ' the opposite of me, loves me deeply. I sleep on a huge four-poster with satin sheets and lace curtains drawn around, I'm waited on by a battery of domestic help. It's a dream-like existence, what more could I want?"
