Mumbai, Dec 2: Despite having 15 world titles in his bag, ace cueist Pankaj Advani stated Wednesday that he is still learning the game and dreams of being followed by tennis legend Roger Federer on Twitter someday soon. Advani added another feather to his cap by winning the IBSF World Snooker Championships in November.
“I am still learning the game. There is no end to learning,” Advani said at an event here. “The moment you stop learning, you tend to stagnate.”
Speaking on a talk show hosted by Twitter India, the 30-year-old said that it would be a dream come true for him if he was followed by Federer, PM Narendra Modi and veteran film director Christopher Nolan.
“Federer is one of the greatest sports persons you can ever see. His twitter account is the best I have witnessed. I dream of being followed by Federer. Also PM Modi and Christopher Nolan are the other two persons whom I want to be followed by in Twitter,” Advani informed.
“I love to follow PM Modi’s account as it is so informative, his every move decision and sharing current topics helps so much. Even Serbian tennis star Novak Djokovic is someone I like following. He is an interesting character,” the Padma Shri winner from Banagalore added.
Advani met PM Modi days after pocketing his 14th world title in October and informed that prior to the meeting he was pretty nervous. “I was nervous when I met him. He is a great person to talk to. I had a talk with him about sports in India and sports policies.”
