What started as just some on-air banter when I was asked to review Virat Kohli's One8 shoes. I said I can only give my opinion if I see and wear them. And soon the shoes landed at home. My son Kabir is most excited. Big shoes to fill, I will say. Thanks for this @imVkohli
Looking at the number of left-hand batters in the Indian T20 team right now, it’s even more of a reason for Team India to look at Rajat Patidar going forward.
I really hope he gets an opportunity, especially since there is still plenty of time for Team India to experiment before the next T20 World Cup.
It’s been a mad 15 years. It’s had everything thrown in there, from the highest highs to the lowest lows (on and off the field 😜).
My time was up, and no one was going to be able to make that decision other than me.
But in the meantime, I just want to say I ❤️ every single England fan and every single cricket fan who’s supported me over the years.
I ❤️ every single person I’ve walked out onto the field with representing England.
I could go on and on, but I hope you get the gist of how much I loved doing what I did for 15 years.
I’m looking forward to being a fan and supporting the team, and the odd day in hospitality won’t go amiss 🤣.
Family, friends, teammates, fans… I ❤️ yas all.

Visited the Lumière Museum and the screening room where Eega and RRR was screened to a full house in Lyon, France.
Thierry Frémaux, the director of the Institut Lumière and the Cannes Film Festival, was gracious enough to introduce me. Then he said he had planned a surprise and walked me through the very street where cinema was born. I was already emotional for everything that was happening around me.
And there is this wall full of plaques. Names of legends like Martin Scorsese, Clint Eastwood, Quentin Tarantino, Francis Ford Coppola… and then I noticed a plate covered with a red cloth. My mind went blank.
I don’t even know what to say for the honour of having my name permanently placed on the Mur des Cinéastes, along with the greats.
Only gratitude. Deeply, deeply humbled. 🙏
Thank you @InstitutLumiere for a memory I will carry for a lifetime.
One after another - after the French Cinematheque, this time where CINEMA was born, Institut Lumiére, LYON! 🥹❤️
Just to have his films EEGA & RRR screen at the place where the first shot using a cinematograph was EVER shot is so overwhelming and SSR being honouring with a plaque on their wall amongst the greats is the most emotional moment! 🥹🙏
Listening to people say that they are discovering Indian cinema through his films and exploring Indian stories and culture is so gratifying! ❤️🥹
Such a satisfying and full filing trip! 🙏🙏🙏
@ssrajamouli have really come a looong way and really excited and looking forward to the loooong journey ahead, Baba! 🥹❤️

#VARANASI:
We have completed a major portion of the shoot all the important big spectacle action sequences are done.
We are now into doing the smaller, interconnecting scenes so hopefully, by September, maybe a little bit into October, we should be finishing shooting.
