Mumbai, April 22 -- Howdee doo hoo my natkhat nuggets! How's the sizzling summer treating you? The rising mercury is getting to me... So I've called my travel agent Chomas Took to book me a holiday in the more pleasantly cooler climes. And until he reverts, let's get started with some of the spicy scooplets that no one else will tell you about.

So read on my sweetums...

Irrespective of how the weather is, Saif Ali Khan seems to be getting hotter by the day. The actor, who's currently all focused on completing his home-production, Agent Vinod, with his ladylove Kareena Kapoor, continues to be one of the most sought after actors in glamour gaon.

So never mind if his Aarakshan with Prakash Jha is yet to be wrapped up, and he's already committed to Homi Adajania's next, scripted by Imtiaz Ali.

Sher Lock Holmes claims to have found out that the actor has been approached to anchor the desi version of the international television show, Survivor.

But hello! Wasn't John Abraham being considered at one time, I wonder. My super sleuth replies in the affirmative, and quickly adds that the hunk's date diary could become a bone of contention. Huh?

Meaning, he explains that Johnny boy has to work out his availability as per the channel's requirements. But since that is looking difficult, the producers and the channelwallahs decided to chase Agent Vinod instead.

Nothing wrong with that. But honestly, I'm a little surprised that Johnny bravo has no time to spare despite his last couple of films have tanked at the box-office. Chalo, badhiya hai.
