Comment: ** removed **
Padma breaks up relationship with Rushdie London, Feb 9 Author Salman Rushdie has reportedly split up with his girlfriend since 1999 Padma Lakshmi because he no longer found her “intellectually challenging.” However, model and actress Lakshmi, 32, is reported to have told her friends that she grew bored of the 55-year-old author. After meeting Padma in 1999, Rushdie moved from London to live with her in New York. But according to the Sunday Mail, Lakshmi has said that the reason for the break-up is the fact that she lives in Los Angeles, where she has a film company, while Rushdie lives in Manhattan. It is claimed that the couple parted company shorlty before Christmas. A friend of Rushdie said, “Salman is very gutted. He is very wounded and down about things and he was lonely over Christmas. They have definitely split up.” “Salman was telling everybody that he had ended the relationship but in fact it was Padma who ended things. She is living in Los Angeles, he is living in New York and everything is over,” he added. Rushdie is said to have told his friends including Nigella Lawson and Martin Amis that he ended the affair because Lakshmi was not “intellectually challenging.” But a friend is quoted as saying, “Salman has been saying it was he who ended things because Padma was not intellectual enough for him. I think his exact words were that she did not challenge him enough anymore. He also said they did not spend much time together.” “Padma was off filming in India. But they were in touch and seeing each other quite regularly. It was a case of growing apart. People who know him well are not that surprised,” he added. “She’s a beautiful actress who took up with a famous writer, who is now not so famous. He is not in news as he always was. She got bored of him. Its as simple as that.” UNI

This dusky beauty also acted in Hollywood movie "Glitter" with Mariah Carey. She is really stunning. Anyway she got some free publicity (or is it vice-versa) with her association with Rushdie.
You are being too polite to call HIS EX. There was no such thing between the two.She never marrierd him
What do you say a LOSER who cant keep a LAp Dancer nudie model stuck to him .All she needed was Money & Money is all Rushdie got .If Not then i pity him
Na sanam he mila na Wisale Sanam
Baree be aabro hoke
tere kuche se hum nikle
Now Rushdies sun has set .From here on it is rapid down hill.all u will hear about him is going to be one notch at a time DOWNWARDS
had me fooled! looking at the heading I thought Rushdie had something to do with Bhuddhism (and the reference to Padma I thought had to do with padhmapaadha!)
but that could be a good solution - if everyone converts to Bhuddhism, there will no longer be any religious extremists. All islams and VHP fanatics should immediately shave their heads and become Bhuddhist monks....they should all go to Afganistan and rebuild the Bamian Bhuddhas that stupid taliban destroyed, by hand. then may be they will have some chance of avoiding the hell hole their mullahs are sending them to!
One side benefit is the worldwide economic recession will be solved in one day! because of the demand for head shaving professionals, there will be no unemployment - which means purchasing power goes up - as demand goes up for laborm wages go up. Also lot of demand for shaving lotion, razors, bandaid etc. Gillette and J&J stocks will zoom taking the Dow above 16000!
