Romance for Sharon & Kheerat?

SHE SPOTS A BUSINESS OPPORTUNIT­Y – BUT IS PLEASURE IN STORE TOO?

- Kate White

Ambitious Sharon sets her sights on a new Walford business this week – but when Ben goes all out to crush her dreams, could there be an opportunit­y of a different type on the horizon?

After handing the Vic back to Mick and Linda, Sharon wants a new outlet for her talents, and sees the empty Walford gym as her next venture.

She hits upon the idea after hearing Peter talking about how lucrative the fitness industry is, and picking his brain about working as a personal trainer. Soon, Sharon’s ready to make a bid, but she doesn’t realise that she has competitio­n.

“Ben wants to spite Sharon, so he tries to gazump her!” whispers our Walford insider. “It’s a petty move, and Ben’s certain that he can outbid Sharon, and win the gym for himself. But Sharon isn’t going down without a fight.” As Ben and Sharon do battle over the gym, curious Kheerat watches on from the sidelines. He’s currently in partnershi­p with the Mitchells, thanks to their joint deal with Stas, so Ben now considers him a trusted associate. It certainly won’t hurt Panesar interests if Ben is able to add another business to the Mitchell empire. So, Kheerat’s interest is piqued as Ben and Sharon go head-to-head.

Neverthele­ss, is there more to Kheerat’s curiosity? He and Sharon shared a very flirty exchange in the Vic a few weeks ago, and there’s clearly chemistry between them. Kheerat and Sharon have shared the odd chat, and now, he’s the person she turns to when the new offer comes in for the gym. Is it more than just an innocent friendship?

“Sharon is the queen of flirting, so it’s no surprise that she’s had some fun with Kheerat!” laughs our snitch.

Sharon’s a single lady, and younger and handsome Kheerat is just her type…”

“However, she’s a single lady who likes brooding, handsome younger men, so Kheerat is just her type. God only knows what Suki would say if Sharon made a move on her son, although Kheerat has been giving as good as he gets when it comes to their flirting.”

Who knows, Sharon might end up with a new business, and a hot new man if she plays her cards right. That’d be one in the eye for Ben and Phil…
