Sushmita Sen Answers Question She's Asked Often: Why Still Single?

New Delhi: Actress Sushmita Sen, 41, has explained in an Instagram post why she's still single (not that we think she needed to). The former Miss Universe is clearly asked about her relationship status, or lack of it, a lot and posted a note on her Instagram account in which she reveals that she hasn't yet met 'the sire who loves to play with fire' - as she put it - and that she is 'secure' in her life choices. "Why still single, they ask? Why not, I answer," Ms Sen wrote in a post liberally sprinkled with emoticons, "I am secure in my choice and in being so, I can respect and appreciate another's choice... whatever that may be. After all, 'singles or doubles, we play to win.' As for me, let's just say 'I am yet to meet that sire who loves to play with fire.'"
