The stars of VIVO Pro Kabaddi League have followed the trend of taking the #BottleCapChallenge as Bengaluru Bulls captain Rohit Kumar, U Mumba skipper Fazel Atrachali and UP Yoddha raider, Rishank Devadiga took this challenge recently.

The background

In the bottle cap challenge, a person has to hit the cap of a bottle with a round-house kick in such a way that the bottlecap comes off. This has become the latest way through which the internet community is showcasing its fitness. Bollywood actor, Akshay Kumar too took this challenge which inspired Rohit Kumar and others to follow his footsteps.

As mentioned above, the #BottleCapChallenge has taken the internet by storm and the kabaddi stars have also chosen to participate in it. UP Yoddha shared Rishank Devadiga's challenge on their official handle before the raider and the official page of Pro Kabaddi reposted it.

While the Iranian defender used the popular Hindi tagline 'How's the Josh' in his caption, Rohit Kumar chose to nominate India's Sports Minister, Kiren Rijiju to partake in this challenge. The Bengaluru Bulls even revealed that he was extremely motivated by his Akshay Kumar's video, which is why he could not resist the challenge.
