Johannesburg - South Africa's ruling African National Congress (ANC) won the country's election with a decisive majority according to results Saturday - but appeared to have fallen just short of the two-thirds majority it wanted to enable it to change the constitution. With around 99 per cent of votes counted, Jacob Zuma's ANC had 66.2 per cent of votes to the 400-seat National Assembly, against 16 per cent for the Democratic Alliance of Cape Town mayor Helen Zille and 7 per cent for the the fledgling Congress of the People.
“First it was Preity’s darshan now I go for Priyadarshan,” joked Akshay Kumar from South Africa where after suddenly attending an IPL match he was off to Singapore to shoot with Priyadarshan.
If after vowing not to be any part of the IPL in South Africa Akshay Kumar was seen at the IPL match in Cape Town last Sunday it was because of Delhi.
Apparently Akshay had made it clear that he wouldn’t be any part of the games although pals Preity Zinta and Shilpa Shetty were involved.
Finally, the dimpled-beauty Preity Zinta has formally declared that her relationship with Bombay Dyeing scion Ness Wadia is no more.
Miss Zinta sent an e-mail to her IPL team ‘Kings XI Punjab’ that Ness is only her business partner, and they do not have any personal relationship.
A source in Cape Town said, “As there has been a lot of buzz about their personal equation, Preity being extremely professional, felt it was important to clear the air.”
Johannesburg - As the African National Congress (ANC) cruised to another overwhelming victory in South Africa's fourth democratic general election, the popularity of the ruling party of 15 years was being attributed to three main factors: the common touch, cash and cool.
Results from Wednesday's national and provincial elections showed the party's majority only slightly dented by the emergence of new opposition.
Johannesburg, Apr. 24 : South Africa batting star J P Duminy is feeling the pressure of playing behind superstars Sachin Tendulkar and Sanath Jayasuriya in the elite Mumbai Indians batting line-up in the Indian Premier League (IPL), a Sports24 report has revealed.
