When Yuvi Warned Rohit Sharma For Ritika
Yes, speaking to Gaurav Kapur on Breakfast with Champions in 2017, Rohit had revealed the warning that he received from the talismanic opener. He revealed:
“I was at one of the shoots where Yuvraj and Irfan were also there with me. As soon as I reached, I went to meet Yuvi as he is a senior player and Ritika, who was managing the shoot was there as well.”
He added: “Now, as I said hi to Yuvi Paji, he said, while pointing to Ritika, that Ye meri behan hai aur iski taraf dekhna bhi mat (She is my sister and don’t even try looking at her).”
“I then looked at Ritika with anger throughout the shoot, thinking who is she and all. After the shoot, about which I was not confident but everything went well, the director came to me and said we couldn’t record anything you said as the mic was off. I was like seriously and went down to take a walk. It is when Ritika came and said nicely to me that if you require any help please let me know.”
