Who is Pakistan siren Veena Malik supporting?

Television's best known import admits she is praying for India in the World Cup semifinals.

Who is Pakistan siren Veena Malik supporting?

Considering it’s cricket that made her famous when she accused her former boyfriend, Pakistani bowler Mohd Asif of being allegedly involved with bookies, Pakistani TV siren, Veena Malik is all geared up for the ‘baap of all matches.’ She’s planning to watch it with her current beau, actor Ashmit Patel who she met on the reality show, Bigg Boss 4.

Veena, a Pakistan national, is currently in India for a cricket reality show, and has already applied for her visa and bought tickets to watch the semi final at Mohali on Wednesday.

So which team is she supporting? “I want India to win as it has given me so much love, affection, and also my bread and butter. But then I wish that Pakistan wins the match as I am born there and it has given me an identity. I’m praying for India, but am also biased towards Pakistan. It’s a tough call to cheer for one team alone as both have a reputation of being game changers.”

Quiz her about her favourite players, and she replies, “Sachin Tendulkar is the God of cricket, but I don’t want him to score 100 runs against Pakistan tomorrow. I also love Yuvraj Singh and feel he is the hero in this entire World Cup series. Nevertheless, Shahid Afridi is the one player that I respect for his captaincy from Pakistan. But frankly, I will be a little sad if Pakistan loses.”
Is she making any plans to meet Pak PM Yousuf Raza Gilani? “No, I haven’t met him till date, but I will try to meet him if possible and will be absolutely delighted,” says Malik.
