I am very passionate about Dhoni and I am religiously maintaining my tattoo so that one day I get a chance to meet him and show my tattoo. What I like the most about him is his calm mindset and how he can change the game at any time. I hope this time CSK wins the IPL,” Jay said while speaking onthe Super Kings show on Star Sports.
Jay adds that India's World Cup triumph under MS Dhoni's leadership in 2011 turned him into a die-hard fan. “When IPL started in 2008, we were aware of all the teams. Amongst them CSK team had some great names like Matthew Hayden whom we are watching since our childhood so CSK was considered the best team during the old times. But from the day when MS Dhoni won the World Cup in 2011 for India to today, I am his biggest and die-hard fan. I have immense respect for him and his team, CSK.”
Pradeep Gowda, one of India's very few artistes exploring anamporphosis, shared his love for Virat Kohli. “We are very proud to say that we are the only Anamorphic artist from Karnataka. Our art always speaks for RCB and Virat. Virat is RCB and RCB is Virat. If you dig the history of anamorphic art, this has come from Greek. This art is a combination of pure physics, science and mathematics. We are die-hard fans of Virat and we want to give this illusion art to Virat someday. We hope he will like it. All the best Virat Kohli. C’mon RCB,” he said while speaking onthe Inside RCB show on Star Sports.
