Hogging the limelight is'nt that difficult after all

Me and my husband had been to covent garden, a hot spot in london especially in summers where you see plenty of street performers, loads of eat out and drinking places above all the best of London's population. But on a day like that where your chilling out with an icecream the last thing you will expect is to bump into a bollywood star. The best thing about spotting a bollywood star in London is that not all people there will recognise an indian star so the question of flocking the star does not arise.
We were walking around covent garden and suddenly my husband spotted Arshad Warsi, arey apun ka circuit re, he was like 'arey yeh to Arshad warsi hai na' and i was like 'come on Arvind a star so simply dressed roaming on streets of london with some ordinary people. He was so sure of it but i did not beleive him until another Indian man pointed out that it is Arshad Warsi indeed. We ran to him and asked him if we can take a picture with him and off he goes 'Sure'. We are all nicely posing with Arshad, His hands on our shoulders (yipeeee). When we thanked him he says ' Pleasure is all mine, Have fun'. Oh Arshad you truly made our day. Rediff made it even better by putting our picture on spotted with stars column. Above all they quoted me. Man, after all we have become stars overnight is'nt it? Atleast we'd like to think of it that way.

Here is a peek into the link.
