"Anna" Sunil Shetty breaks silence! Says KL Rahul is a fighter and he will fight back in a recent interview!

Probably for the first time ever, KL Rahul and Athiya Shetty fans heard what the former’s Father-in-law says and thinks about him. In a recent interview Sunil Shetty aka Anna, spoke about KL Rahul’s form and future for the Indian team. Off-late in International cricket, Rahul is not having a good time and his under performance also stripped him off Test Vice Captaincy.

Sunil Shetty said that his family doesn’t discuss work or professional life at home when they get together. And it doesn’t matter if KL Rahul has performed well or bad it is not a matter of discussion for Sunil further stated that Rahul is not a newbie or a gully cricketer who has to take advices from the actor.

Shetty praised Rahul and his daughter Athiya for being fighters in their respective careers and it regardless of their bad performance they will always find love at home. “We don’t discuss about failure or not doing well because we all know that they are fighters. We show more love.”

The 61-year-old veteran actor emphasized on the importance of taking mind off from work in order to keep Mental Health in check. “We talk about everything else in the world and try to take your mind off. I can’t teach KL Rahul how to play cricket. He is playing for the country, is not playing gully cricket or for somebody to comment and say ‘aise khelo, waise khelo’. If I would have said it would have been for gully (street) cricket.” – Shetty said to an RJ. 

One of the major highlighter was Sunil Shetty’s words of support and backing for Rahul. Anna recognized Rahul’s fighting spirit and applauded his willingness to let his bat do the talking on the pitch. “I can see a young boy going through tough time but willing to stand up there and realise and work hard. Aur baat kya karega, balla hi baat krega baaki to baat karke fayeda hi nahi hai.”
