Yes, You read that right. The 2013 blockbuster Kai Po Che starred Digvijay who will be debuting in this IPL for Mumbai Indians.
“Yes, I am Digvijay and I acted as Ali in that movie Kai Po Che. But I was never an actor and always a cricketer. Now I am slowly realising my dream,” Digvijay told PTI.
“People would refer to me as an actor and I would be very angry. Mujhe gussa aata thaa. I did Kai Po Che because a lot of scenes were just about playing cricket. But staying outdoor for four months hampered my cricket and I didn’t want that to happen ever again,” Digvijay said.
“I got an opportunity to do a television commercial (advertisement) but I declined. My parents (father a school teacher and mother a homemaker) also supported me. I didn’t want the focus to waver from the game,” he added.
The IPL 2020 Auction got over recently and Mumbai Indians had a few good buys. One of them is Chris Lynn who will be opening for the team.
