Kendo UI grid should display message as 'no data' for selected in drop

Using Kendo UI for the grid. It displays data based on the drop-down option selected. When it loads the first time I have set the .norecords message as 'Select an option.' So when some option from the drop-down has no data to display in the grid it shows the same message 'Select an option.' I want to have a message displayed as No data for selected option message but it shows select an option message for dropdown option as 'Select an option' when already option is selected.

for kendo UI for MVC, don't use the norecord extension method, instead use databound as

"text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function () {
noResultsFound();
});
function noResultsFound() {
var grid= $("#grid").data("kendoGrid");
var customMsg;
var val= $("#ddl").data("kendoDropDownList").val();
if(val!=null || val!="")
{
customMsg= "please select and option";
}
else{
customMsg="sorry! no data for this option.";
}
var displayMSG = " " + customMsg + "

you can write a custom function for that
