[Watch] When Shahid Kapoor's wife Mira admitted having a crush on ex-RCB star AB de Villiers
AB de Villiers won the hearts of many cricket fans with his spectacular batting performances in the IPL. His brilliant innings helped Royal Challengers Bengaluru and Delhi Daredevils win many games. His incredible consistency also ensured that he ended his career as an RCB Hall of Famer.
Millions of fans love AB de Villiers' batting, but there are also a lot who adore him for non-cricketing reasons. Popular Bollywood star Shahid Kapoor's wife Mira Rajput Kapoor once admitted having a crush on de Villiers.
An old video from a Koffee With Karan episode has been going viral on Instagram, where Mira confessed having a crush on the RCB legend.
"All of Mira's crushes post marriage, and there are many, are a minimum of 10 years younger," Shahid Kapoor told Karan Johar as Mira laughed.
When Johar asked who was the last person she had a crush on, Shahid and Mira responded by taking AB de Villiers' name. You can watch the viral reel below:
The host then asked Mira if she had a crush on any Indian star, but she said no. Shahid cheekily hit back at her, saying that she had a crush on every alternate boy she saw.
Shahid Kapoor once said that he was a big fan of AB de Villiers
In a six-year old video, Shahid Kapoor once disclosed that even he was a huge fan of De Villiers. Kapoor highlighted how Mr. 360 defined the game of cricket with his incredible shots and told reporters:
"I am a huge AB de Villiers fan. I have been a cricket buff, since I don't know, like I was three years old. He is one of the new-age cricketers, who has changed and redefined all the rules."
Unfortunately for Shahid Kapoor and other fans of de Villiers, the legendary player retired from all formats of the sport in 2021. He now works as a YouTuber, sharing his views on cricket.
