As we all know, Tyson is pretty fond of ears and dark skinned babes - and now he wants a Bollywoodie!

The aging maverick hunk who once ruled the boxing ring has fallen for lissome Bollywood babe Shilpa Shetty and Bollywood. He, incidentally, is the latest celebrity from the international arena to fall for Bollywood and its current international celebrity babe. It may be recalled that last year, Hollywood’s Will Smith had expressed his desire to work with former Miss World Aishwarya Rai in a Bollywood film.

A report said that a brief appearance in a promotional video for Ahmed Khan’s Fool N Final seems to have spurred Tyson’s interest in Shilpa. The former boxing heavyweight champion is keen on sharing screen space with Shilpa Shetty by donning the greasepaint in a Bollywood movie.

Fool N Final has given him the confidence. Topping his wish list of co-stars is actor Shilpa Shetty, said a report. The report quoting Tyson said that the energy on the sets of the music video of Fool N Final he shot for in Las Vegas has made him think about giving Bollywood a try. Shilpa's beauty, grace, and wit seem to have created a lasting impression on Tyson.
