Mumbai, Feb 23: It was great to spot cricketer-turned-actor Salil Ankola on the screen once again, in the recent Vidyut Jammwal-starrer, The Power. The former Indian fast bowler may be 52, but he looks not a day older than mid-thirties, essaying a hunky bodyguard to one of the key characters in the Mahesh Manjrekar film.
The role may have been a short one, but it somehow defines Ankola's career - in showbiz as well as cricket. He is always been around and you can never quite ignore his towering persona.
Right now, Ankola is Chairman of the Senior Selection Committee of Mumbai Cricket Association. It is a job he was appointed to in December and he is happy to have "returned to the game after a long time".
"I have been appointed about two and a half months back now. I was appointed on 16th of December. It feels good...

New Delhi, Aug 9: If as an actress she looked convincing in the role of a mother in films like "Raja Hindustani" and "Rishtey", off-screen Karisma Kapoor is playing mom to her two children with a similar conviction and making them adopt healthy eating and lifestyle habits.
For health-conscious Karisma, it is important to promote healthy eating habits at home. Since that's a task in itself, she tries her best to make eating fun for her children.
"I try to make eating fun and interesting. For instance, I tell them broccoli looks like a tree, so they think they are eating trees," Karisma, mother of Samaira, 8, and Kiaan Raj.
