Mumbai: India is on cloud nine after bagging the recent Border-Gavaskar Test Series in Australia. The joy of this big victory of the Indian cricket team was celebrated all over the country.
At the same time, Hindi film celebrities also expressed their best wishes to Team India. But the player who impressed veteran actor Dharmendra the most is fast bowler Mohammad Siraj. Siraj’s dedication to his game and country made Dharmendra emotional.
He wrote a note on Twitter for Siraj.
Siraj’s father had died during the tour of Australia but he did not let the sorrow affect his game and the tour continued. This was also Siraj’s test debut. After returning from Australia Thursday, Siraj went straight to his father’s grave.

Dharmendra often communicates his feelings through social media. However, on some occasions he was also trolled. On deleting the tweet for the farmers’ movement, some people tried to pull down the veteran actor to which Dharmendra gave a fitting reply.
Dharmendra often spends time at his farm house away from films. However, he will now be seen in his home production film Apne’s sequel with sons Sunny Deol, Bobby Deol and grandson Karan Deol. This film is being directed by Anil Sharma.
