Sameera Reddy is kind of on a high, after the success of Race and One Two Three, so like everyone in Bollywood, she’s taken some time off to check out IPL matches and attend some of the events. It was at one of these events that Sameera met Indian cricketer Ishant Sharma

The Kolkata Knights fast bowler (that’s Shah Rukh Khan’s team) was bought for almost a million dollars and even though he couldn’t lead the team to victory (or even out of the first round) with his fast arm and spindly legs, those features caught the gaze of another bidder: Sameera.

While she didn’t pay much for him, the official story is that they are now dating. Hmmm, what is it about cricket players? Yes, some of them are cute, but very few are as good looking (or as rich) as football players. Does India even have a national football team? Figures, well, a girl has to take what she can get.
