Former Indian cricket team explosive opening batsman Virender Sehwag is all set to embark on a brand-new journey in the entertainment industry. Known for his fearless batting style on the cricket field, Sehwag is now ready to take on the role of a host for a major reality game show.
Sons Were Shocked By Hosting Decision
Sehwag will be hosting Amazon MX Player's popular reality game show 'Rise and Fall Season 2'. During a recent interview promoting the show, the former cricketer shared interesting anecdotes, including his sons' reaction to his new career move. He revealed that when he agreed to host the show, his sons, Aryavir and Vedant, were completely shocked.
Sehwag laughed as he recalled his sons asking him, "Dad, what are you doing? How will you host a show? There are so many massive arguments there, how will you handle them?" He also spoke candidly about his children, stating that while they benefit from his name and legacy, they also face the constant pressure of comparison. He firmly believes in not putting pressure on his sons to emulate his achievements.
Desire For a Biopic Highlighting His Love Story
When asked during the interview if he would be open to a biopic being made on his life, Sehwag answered with an instant yes. He expressed a specific wish that if a movie were to be made about him, it must prominently feature his love story with his wife, Aarti Ahlawat.
However, when asked who should portray him on the silver screen, Sehwag refrained from taking any names, stating that he would leave that decision entirely up to the filmmakers and directors, noting that today's actors are exceptionally talented.
