WATCH: India’s star pacer Mohammed Shami names 2 favourite South Indian film actors

Published on

India’s star cricketer Mohammed Shami picked NTR and Prabhas as his two favourite South Indian film actors during the event in Hyderabad. Notably, the right-arm pacer revealed that he also likes South Indian movies, but he could not watch them in the native South Indian language as he could not understand Tamil much. However, the great cricketer says that he loves watching dubbed movies.

“South ki movies kaafi pasand hai. Junior (NTR) pasand hai. Prabhas pasand hai (I like South Indian movies a lot. I like Jr NTR. I like Prabhas). Movies dekhta hu main par itni jyada nahi kyoki Tamil toh samajh mein hi nahi aati. Lekin dubbing movies aa gayi hai toh wo bahut acha lagta hai (I watch movies but not much because I don’t understand),” Mohammed Shami said in the video.

Notably, the 33-year-old had an incredible ODI World Cup 2023 campaign with the ball for India, but it ended in a final defeat against Australia. The right-arm pacer ended his journey as the leading wicket-taker, played a crucial role in the semi-final against New Zealand, and guided the side to reach the finals despite missing the first four matches of the League stage due to the availability of star all-rounder Hardik Pandya.

Mohammed Shami is currently unavailable for selection owing to an ankle injury

However, the great seamer is currently unavailable for selection owing to an ankle injury and is currently ruled out of the ongoing India vs. England five-match Test series. Meanwhile, the star cricketer is expected to get fit ahead of IPL 2024, as the Gujarat Titans are heavily dependent on the pacer.

Meanwhile, the great pacer might get a chance in the T20 World Cup 2024, which is set to begin on June 1 in the West Indies and the USA. The star cricketer is currently at the NCA and has not played a single game since India’s loss in the ODI World Cup 2023 final to Australia. Moreover, the 33-year-old cricketer had missed the T20I series against Australia, the full South Africa tour, the Afghanistan series, and currently missed the Test series against England.
