DELHI: The Indian Premier League (IPL) has launched a 'Miss Bollywood South Africa'
competition which will select one South African IPL fan to win a role in a Bollywood
movie, get Rs 50,000 in cash, and also get to avail a business class trip to India.
Launching
the competition, IPL chairman and commissioner Lalit Modi said, We are looking
for someone who has the star quality to stand out in a crowd. Its that special,
almost indefinable, quality that makes someone a star more than a beauty queen
that we are looking for. IPL matches, with their mix of fun and excitement, are
an excellent environment to identify the kind of person who is a natural stand-out
in a big crowd." The
competition will see 50 winners being chosen from among the crowds in all the
eight venues in South Africa. Photographs of the winners will be loaded on to
the IPL website, www.iplt20.com, where fans from around the world would be able
to cast their votes. The final winner will be announced on the day of the final
match. |
