New Delhi, June 14: What could be the weakness of a seven feet giant, who is famous for his breath-taking stunts on the wrestling ring?Our very own curries, what else!
Wrestling superstar Kane is a die-hard fan of Indian curries and says he is mesmerised by them. "I think Indian curries are amazing. This is my third visit to India but everytime I come here, I just can`t resist the spicy curries that they make here. Each curry has its distinctive taste and I love them," said Kane, who was recently in the capital to promote WWE. It is not only curries that intimidate the `Big Red Machine`. He is equally captivated by the historical monuments of India and Taj Mahal is right up there in his list of favourites. "I`m intrigued by the culture and history of India. Taj Mahal is an engineering wonder. Its hard to imagine that such a structure could be built so many years back. The love and passion of the emperor is worth admiring," says the 9 time WWE World Tag Team champion. Kane, who already has two Hollywood films to his credit says he has no plans of acting in an Indian film. "Bollywood is a little different from Hollywood. It has a lot of song and dance and I don`t think I can do any of them. May be in future I can give it a try," he says. The big man believes World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) is not just confined to sporting action and bitter rivalry amongst wrestling superstars. "The job of a WWE superstar is to entertain people. This is not just sports, it`s sports entertainment," the wrestler says. Kane admits his half-brother `The Undertaker` has played a key role in his wrestling success though both of them have locked horns umpteen times on the ring. "As far as my relationship with ‘The Undertaker’ is concerned, he had a great impact on my career. Without him I certainly would not have been where I am today," he adds. Kane was not shy of praising his Indian counterpart Khali, who had been instrumental in Kane`s ouster from the `Money in the Bank` qualifying match for `Wrestlemania 23` in 2007. "Khali is undoubtedly a great asset to WWE. His popularity is over the roof in India and he is an idol for kids. I think the people of India should be really proud of him," he said. Bureau Report
