Popular Singer Usha Uthup graced the show on Sunday and sang “Senorita” from the Bollywood hit “Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara”. The Indian cricketers were enjoying the performance, when Harbhajan started shaking his legs. The bowler then held Ganguly’s hands and started dancing with him on the stage, as the rest of the cricketers laughed and clapped.

Ganguly was hesitant at first, but later, he got into the groove, and showed some moves of his own. After the dance performance, Harbhajan gave Ganguly a hug, before both the cricketers returned to their original spots.

The 39-year-old Harbhajan was an integral part of Indian cricket team which was under Ganguly’s leadership. The memorable 2001 Test series win over Australia, is regarded as the off-spinner’s breakout series, in which he picked up 32 wickets in 3 Tests. He also picked a hat-trick in the 2nd Test of the series at Eden Gardens in Kolkata.

Recently, in a show on India Today, Ganguly revealed how he was convinced that Harbhajan will go on to script records. “They say it’s love at first sight. And when I saw Harbhajan bowl at Eden, picking up 14 wickets it was love at first sight for a cricketer who I believed would go on to change things for Indian cricket,” he said.

“And 800 wickets after that, I am not surprised. He and Anil were the two best spinners India has ever had together in terms of the no of wickets and the impact that they have had on Test matches,” the former skipper added.
