Close your eyes and think of the first name that comes to your mind when you hear Star Ya Rockstar judge. Chances are you'll say Anu Malik before you go on to remember Alisha Chinai. This is poor Alisha's fault. Neither is she bland or boring, in fact, she has a dazzling persona that is most unlikely to merge into the background.

Well, the only reason her name doesn't come running to your lips first is because Anu Malik is on the panel with her. And it is a well established fact that he ensures that the mike stays firmly clenched in his own hands and that he has the final word on everything. Add to that, Anu's penchant for breaking into his trademark sher-o-shaayri and what we are left with is a one-liner from Alisha and about 7 minutes of feedback to each contestant from Anu. No surprise, then, that it is Anu's name that registers stronger as the Star Ya Rockstar judge.

But is the Baby doll of the 90's about to take Anu Malik's fight for extra footage lying low? Hardly, at a recent lunch party she threw for the cast and crew of her current reality show at her Charni Road residence, Alisha took sweet revenge and her methods included a curry that wasn't exactly sweet. Insiders reveal that Alisha had set aside a special bowl of Anu's favorite prawn curry for him that had only thrice as many finely ground red chillies as the curry served to the rest of her esteemed guests. No marks for guessing that the color of Anu's face, particularly his nose and ears, was the exact same red as the curry he had been served.

Alisha pulled this one fully aware of Anu's severe intolerance for red chillies. So when the poor man jumped off the couch furiously screaming for water. Alisha burst out laughing and ran around hiding the jug of water from him. The other guests were not sure if they should laugh or stifle their smiles when Alisha loudly taunted Anu saying, "Serves you right for having constantly hankered for extra footage and hogged the limelight with your extra-long feedback sessions and non-stop sher-o-shaayri. This should teach you to let others have a chance at speaking too, Anu."

While Anu was speechless for the longest time, he recovered in time to say, "Alisha, feeding me curry spiked with extra chilli powder is the lamest way to get back at me for having outshone you on the show."

When contacted, Alisha laughed off the incident saying it was something she did in a lighter vein and not to be taken too seriously. But when we spoke to Anu, he still seemed a little cheesed off with the incident and added, "No amount of chilli powder is going to take away the magic of all the memorable moments I have brought to Star Ya Rockstar. People will remember me for the sheer life I brought to the show. Alisha, it's time you came up with better methods to get back at me."
