Narang upset with Saif, Rani and Aishwarya Rai Thursday, August 31 2006 11:32 Hrs (IST) - World Time -
New Delhi:
Rifle shooter Gagan Narang is upset with film stars Saif Ali Khan, Rani Mukherjee and Aishwarya Rai.
Narang, who is Wednesday (30 Aug, 2006) confers Arjuna award, says he personally wrote to the three Bollywood celebrities for contributing to his book 'Common Wealth Dreams' since they were a part of the closing ceremony in Melbourne early this year but none of them responded.
"I personally requested them to contribute in some way to the book because they performed at the ceremony. But they have not yet responded," he says.
"The coffee table book is a collection of 120 pictures which also includes personal snaps given by other sportspersons. It would also be available on-line as well," he says.
The coffee table book, which is unique in the sense that it does not concentrate on one sport or one sport personality but many disciplines, will be released in Narang's home town of Hyderabad in October.
"The 'Common Wealth' in the title means it is a common wealth of all the sportspersons," he says about the book, being published by 'Wisdom Tree'.
