In town, to perform at Shilp Mela, Dona, a day after her husband staged a comeback to national squad, said, she is on cloud nine."Sourav had been working hard and he truly deserved this," she said while promising a mesmerising dance Friday late evening.

Declaring that Sourav will definitely prove himself, Dona reveals though last 10 months had been tough for 'Dada', it was not for a moment that the ace cricketer had given up a hope of playing for the nation again. "He is a very tough cricketer. Even when everybody may have doubts over his ability of staging a comeback, he was always sure that cricket is left in him," she says while praising the hubby.

On her role in hubby's struggle, the dancer wife prefers not to take any credit. "I perhaps did all what he could have expected from a wife," she admits humbly.
