No Sachin , Shoeb Only SRK , John & Ash at Faisalabad !
- Abid           Let us know what you think about this story

The venue of the second cricket match between India and Pakistan , Faisalabad , is some distance from Lahore . With the hype about the Indo-Pak matches , it was but expected that the favourite pin up boys would be Shoeb , Sachin and other cricket stars . But that is far from the truth . While the bike enthusiasts are crazy about John ( like In India , post 'Dhoom') by and large it is Shah Rukh Khan who dominates the scenario .

23 year old Qaiser , who has been selling posters at Faisalabad's Allama Iqbal Street ( near Muslim library) , for the last few years has something interesting to tell us (in chaste Punjabi) - " Jnaab , Shoeb nu kond kharidega ? Odi koi keemat nahin . Itthe taan Shah Rukh Khan hi bikda hai . Aaj kal taan John Ibrahim da poster bade bande mangde ne " ( Sir, who will buy Shoeb ? He is priceless ! Here only Shah Rukh Khan sells . These days a lot of people come to ask for John Abraham's posters) .

When queried about about the the posters of other cricket stars another interesting answer - " Koi badda match hove taan bachche maang lende ne . World Cup honda chainda . Tainyo market vich maang hundi aan . Par Shah Rukh te Aishwarya de poster barah maheene bikde ne " ( If there is a big match kids ask for posters of cricketers . World Cup should be held/start .Only at that time there is demand in the market . But the posters of Shah Rukh Khan and Aishwarya Rai sell all twelve months ) .
