New Delhi: Iconic cricketer Kapil Dev, who has come out with a coffee book titled ‘We The Sikhs’ with Dubai-based entrepreneur Ajay Sethi, has said that the Sikh community has done a great job across the globe.
Asked what made him come out with the book on Sikhs, Kapil told this agency over an email, “I feel that the Sikh community has done a great job across the world. They are a great example for the world to follow.”
‘We The Sikhs’ celebrates Sikhism and features photographs and original paintings of 100 Gurudwaras across the globe. “One can learn how to live, be helpful and be a good human being from them. Sikhism is the best path of life,” added Kapil, who is currently touring the US with the book.
The plan to come out with the book began began when Kapil visited a Gurudwara in Pakistan and got so moved by the experience that he decided to bring Gurudwaras from all corners of the world together in one precious publication.
The book is divided into three sections – ‘The Gurus’, ‘The History’ and ‘Artifacts and Gurudwaras’.
“We The Sikhs” was launched April 14 on the occasion of Baisakhi in the American city of Fresno.
Apart from the book, Kapil is also training actor Ranveer Singh for the upcoming sports film ‘’83’. Presented by Reliance Entertainment, the film directed by Kabir Khan, will see Ranveer Singh playing Kapil Dev. The film is inspired by team India’s first iconic World Cup win.
