The couple, Shilpa Shetty and London-based businessman Raj Kundra were accompanied by Shilpa's mother during their first home-coming after marriage. She was a perfect embodiment of local culture with her polished Tulu and mannerisms. Replying to one of the queries by presspersons, she wished all success for team India and said she has hopes that India would emerge as a winning team in this world cup cricket.
