Bollywood star Shilpa Shetty got a blue sports car from her husband Raj Kundra, the latest in a long line of gifts he has showered on her, says a Mid Day report..
The doting hubby gifted her the blue sports car in Jaipur yesterday just before the Rajasthan Royals match.
Says a source close to the couple, "Raj is a car fanatic and loves fast sleek cars. He has several luxury cars in London. Last year, in South Africa he had hired a bright red Lamborghini for them to ride around in. This time around, he went ahead and actually bought one in blue for his wife! He had it delivered to Delhi and drove it down to Jaipur. When Shilpa landed at the airport, she saw the car waiting for her and was stunned. After the Jaipur match, it will go back to Mumbai for Shilpa's use."
The source adds that Raj chose the royal blue colour in keeping with the team colours of the Rajasthan Royals, the Indian Premier League cricket team that Shilpa and he own. "At the airport, he told Shilpa that a new Rajasthan Royals merchandise was waiting for her (the new car)."Here's what Shilpa's drive would look like. Pic used for representational purpose.
Interestingly, Shilpa doesn't care much for cars, though she loves speed. In Mumbai, she has one luxury car and is happy with that. And though this is Raj's gift to her, it will end up being used more by him. He loves driving and will be happy to drive around in Mumbai."
Yesterday at the RR match, Shilpa was attired in a blue leheriya saree for the first time. The source says, "Normally, Shilpa wears a white vest or T-shirts which she feels are lucky for her but she chose to wear a saree yesterday as it was gifted to her by Maharani Padminiji of Jaipur"
So far, Raj has given Shilpa (1) A Rs 7 crore flat in Central London (2) An IPL team (3) A diamond solitaire (engagement ring) (4) Two flats in a high-end building in Juhu (5) A seven-bedroom home in Weybridge Surrey (6) Club Royalty in Bandra and (7) V8 Gourmet Group of restaurants in London.
