Great to see the passion that stars have for cricket and indeed surprising to see the competition taken to another level.”
There seemed to be a perfect blend of entertainment and fun when Usha Uthup called Master Blaster Sachin Tendulkar over on the stage and dedicated a song to him from a telugu movie in which Dhanush had acted.
