The great gambler! Naman Shaw

The great gambler!

Ranjib Mazumder

Actor Naman Shaw emerged as a lucky winner at Ekta Kapoor's Diwali party on Sunday. He won a huge amount in the game of cards played among all of Ekta's actor-friends. Naman recalls, "Like others, I was also invited to play cards. Initially I was hesitant and kept watching my colleagues playing... But when Ekta noticed me standing aside, she gave me a wad of money and insisted that I play too. When I hesitated, she explained that it was a 'good-luck' amount and I should accept it without inhibition. There were other actors like Ram Kapoor, Shabbir Ahluwalia, Akashdeep Saigal playing cards and we continued to play the whole night. Surprisingly, I won almost every round! I returned the amount Ekta gave me later and still had Rs 20,000 left. I can't disclose the amount Ekta gave me, since I considered it as my good-luck charm."

The actor further adds, "I enjoyed the party to the hilt. I guess, I can be a great gambler some day!"
