My Favourite Men - 8 - Tim Henman

Tim Henman came to my notice in the mid 90s when a ball or a racket thrown in anger during a match had hit a girl. She suffered concussion and was immdiately taken to the hospital. Next morning I read in the newspapers that he visited the girl at the hospital and had carried flowers with him. I had started having a small crush on him at that time and this gesture, though might be seen as normal by many, made me totally fall for him. I fantasized about him falling in love with the girl. Umm...those were the days.

My Favorite Men - 6 - Paul Walker

I have seen only one Paul Walker Movie - Pleasantville. I have seen Varsity Blues, but I don't remember seeing him at all. I like him simply because he is a stunner, absolute beauty.

Matt Damon is quiet famous. I need not write much about him. I find him very very sexy. Of all his movies I liked him best in the Bourne series. He had drawn a lot of unwanted attention to himself when the rumour of him breaking up with Minnie Driver on Oprah was doing the rounds. Matt denied the rumour years later and said that the break-up took place few weeks before the show.

Paul Bettany came to my notice through Da Vinci Code. I felt a little sorry for him in the movie. I googled him and was pleasantly surprised to find that he is a very attractive man.

Adam Garcia is another all season, perfect husband material. This Australian caught my fancy in the movie Coyote Ugly. He has a table top strip dance scene in it. He is absolutely gobblable. He is done movies like Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen with Lindsay Lohan, Riding in Car with guys where he plays Drew Barrymore's son, Bootmen.

Mark Ruffalo is an all-time favorite. He is perfect husband material - cute & sexy, intelligent, sensitive and pleasant.

He is called the thinking woman's dream man. Although more frail in person, he is absolutely beautiful. His skin is smooth and young and his thick thatch of curly dark hair frames his soulful, deep brown eyes. He has a certain child-like innocence about him, something that was captured 13 Going on 30 but seldom seen in his other work. Ruffalo could easily be called the nicest guy in Hollywood. He has no pretentions and carries himself humbly. He's gentle and thoughtful.

He was to play Joquain's role in Signs, but detection of a brain tumor took it away from it. He was operated but that resulted in a temporary partial paralysis. He has recovered fully now. That role would have pitched him in the big league much before; but then one gets what one deserves, sooner or later.

Shahrukh Khan : I first saw him as a gawky, over acting guy in the tele serial 'Fauji'. I started liking him. I was too young to have any such feelings for men, but i developed some for him. I closely followed his career through tele-serials like 'Doosra Keval', 'Dil Dariya' & 'Circus'. Then came the movies - Deewana (where he managed to get noticed despite Divya Bharati & Rishi Kapoor who had all the best songs filmed on him); Raju Ban Gaya Gentleman, Kabhi Haan Kabhi Naa put him up in the big league and thereafter he became what he is still today - 'darling of the Indian movie goers'.

I like him for many other reasons - his clean and straight life, his commitment to wife and family & his dedication to his work. Here is one of my favorite pics of him.

Saif Ali Khan was everything I didn't like in a man, when he started acting. Things have changed over the years. If I put aside his leaving Amrita for Roza, I quite like him as a man. I am not judging him for doing what he did. It is just a little bit disturbing, thats all.
