Manoj Bajpayee Lauds Zaheer Khan's Courtesy In IPL 2024 Commentary Booth

Rajasthan Royals are facing Sunrisers Hyderabad in the IPL 2024 Qualifier 2 clash at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai today (Friday, May 24).

As the two teams vie for a spot against Kolkata Knight Riders in the Final, JioCinema's Hindi Commentary team witnessed a notable moment during the SRH innings. Bollywood star Manoj Bajpayee joined commentators Saba Karim and Zaheer Khan to promote his upcoming film Bhaiyya Ji.

Bajpayee Praises Zaheer's Politeness

Bajpayee, who had previously known Saba Karim, met Zaheer Khan for the first time. The actor was visibly impressed by the former India pacer's politeness. "This is my first interaction with Zaheer. I have seen him on TV only playing for India. I am truly amazed by the politeness of Zaheer; he is such a gentleman. He was so aggressive on the field," Bajpayee remarked with a smile.

Zaheer Khan's Response

Zaheer Khan responded by saying he is only aggressive when on the field. Off-field, he is known for his class and polite demeanour, which is evident in his behaviour and oratory skills.

The commentary segment featuring Bajpayee, Karim, and Khan added an interesting dynamic to the match, blending Bollywood with cricket seamlessly.
