Bollywood stars and their
'pet' peeves March
24, 2008
Mumbai, (IANS) Bollywood stars just adore their pets, showering them with gifts
and loads of love. But they wouldn't dream of leaving their millions to their
pooches.
Urmila Matondkar: My pet is a pug called Loco. Leaving everything in my will?
Sounds too extreme and silly. But I adore my pet.
Malaika Arora: I've a Daschund called Coco. And please I'm not a senile heiress
to leave my billions to my dog.
Simi Garewal: I've two beautiful little dogs, both females, named Diva and Aria.
And no! I wouldn't leave anything in my will for them. They can't sign cheques
yet. And I'm not insane. In my will I'd make sure that they are well taken care
of.
Upen Patel: I've a pug named Romeo and a poodle named Casanova. They're my
family in Mumbai. Can't do without them.
Perizaad Zorabian: I've a pug called Chintamani. He's just the cutest. Loves me
unconditionally and is such a source of joy. I don't think he needs any money
because Chintu loves only the intangibles. But, yes, I'd provide for him and
make sure he's well looked after once I'm gone.
Tanushree Dutta: I've a Shitzu called Happy, all of three months old. Actually
the puppy would be the only thing left in my will by the time I die. I'd have
spent all my other wealth. Any takers?
Gul Panag: I've a four-year old male Beagle called Milo. I love him very much
and take him everywhere I go, whether it's Chandigarh or visiting my parents in
Kashmir. But leave him everything? Noooo! Sorry.
Sophie Choudhary: Growing up in London I always had dogs. One of them was
christened Benjy Choudhary. My mom called him beta. Unfortunately he died soon
after we moved to India. But if he hadn't I'd not leave my estate to him. I'd
make sure I leave him in a good home.
Amrita Arora: I used to have a dog named Frisky. I wouldn't leave my money for
him.
Tusshar Kapoor: I've a 14-year-old pet named Whiskey. First my family, then I'd
leave everything I have to him. I'd do anything to keep him alive forever.
Ashish Chowdhary: Got a lovely handsome really good looking pug named Hug. If he
knew how to handle finances I'd leave him lots of money. But he's going to be
pampered all his life. I'll leave him lots of back-up and love. He's special to
my entire family.
Neetu Chandra: Yes, I've a pet. It's a bitch and her name is Chia. No, I
wouldn't leave everything to her in my will.
Diya Mirza: I've a pet Labrador. I'd leave the name of caretaker for him in my
will. That way he'd be better taken care of.
But there are some who say they would leave their wealth to their pets.
Koena Mitra: I've five pretty dogs. They're my angels, my lifeline. I got them
from different countries. All of them are toy-breed miniatures named Cookie,
Jerry, Jiggy, Missy and Fluffy. Nothing but the best for them. My wealth and my
man's money won't be enough to maintain their plush lifestyle. So, yes, I will
leave them my wealth.
Bipasha Basu: I own a Chihuahua named Poshto. He's my jaan (life). Yes, why not
leave him my money? But he won't need so much.
