MUMBAI: Actor Anupam Kher recently had a pleasant surprise when he “accidentally” bumped into former Indian cricket captain Rohit Sharma, and the unexpected meeting clearly made his day.
On Wednesday, Kher took to Instagram to share pictures with Sharma and his wife, Ritika Sajdeh. In the photos, the trio can be seen smiling warmly as they pose together.
Kher was at a shoot location where several vanity vans were parked. While looking for his own, he mistakenly walked into the wrong one, only to find Rohit Sharma and Ritika inside. However, what could have been an awkward moment quickly turned into a memorable one.
Along with the pictures, the ‘Marathon Man’ actor posted a heartfelt note, calling Rohit his “favourite cricketer” and praising not just his talent on the field but also his personality. Kher spoke about Sharma’s calm nature, honesty, and the way he stays “real” whether cameras are around or not. He also said Rohit never tries to create a “myth” about himself and remains the same person in public and private.
“The GREATEST #RohitSharma! My favourite cricketer and his beautiful and hugely supportive wife #Ritika. I love Rohit! Of course for his brilliance as an amazing player.”
