Cricket and Bollywood have enjoyed a timeless affair. All-rounder Irfan Pathan reveals his undying passion for the movies
It is quite the hero on the field with his dimples swinging style and handsome . Outside it is sometimes shy , sometimes funny, but every time a storm of testosterone. Given the swashbuckling atmosphere , it is no surprise that Irfan Pathan has offered movies again and again . But not wanting to be distracted from the requirements of the sport, which has put the matter on hold exciting from now . Meanwhile, he is glad to see films , films and more films … a fascination that took birth during the days of Doordarshan black and white cinemascope was over the years …
crazy childhood
When I was a kid , we did not have a television at home. We used to go to our neighbor’s house to watch movies. We would wait for Sunday to see the film that aired on Doordarshan . Sometimes even rented the VCR. Go to a movie in a theater was as a celebration for the family. Whichever film had the luck to watch became my favorite. But there are two movies that enrich my childhood memories . I saw Ajooba ( Amitabh Bachchan – Dimple Kapadia ) repeatedly . It was my first superhero movie . The flight , acrobatics … let me fascinated . Sholay is another film I’ve seen several times. If I’m not mistaken , that was the first movie I saw . Youth Fantasies When I started traveling , I began to see more films on my own. It was the era of Shah Rukh Khan. Dilwale Dulhania Le Jaayenge remains one of my favorites. I’m a big movie buff and can watch any movie today . Mostly, Shah Rukh Khan movies . I usually look at my laptop with my brother ( cricketer Yusuf Pathan ) .

My Hot List
I enjoy two kinds of movies – comedy and socio- themed dramas. Hera Pheri is always hot on my list . Aamir Khan ‘s films always have a message. 3 Idiots and Taare Zameen Par are good examples. I like his acting style . Lends credibility to each role. Sarfarosh is a movie I can watch again and again.

Music mania
I love music of Hindi cinema. All hit songs of Kishore Kumar and Mohammad Rafi are in my playlist . But it is not the number Mukesh Pal pal ka hoon shaayar ( Kabhi Kabhie ), which is my most played one . Rather , melodious songs slow to fast , lively numbers.

call camera
I have received offers of action in the past, but wanted to focus on the game. So I never paid attention to them. Films takes two or three months of dedication . Also, cricketers are not camera shy . The minute we step on the field, the camera is on us . We also interviews and walk the red carpet fashion stars do . But acting is a different ball game . You need to be in the nature of a stretch of time . Ads are fired once . That does not bother my game. I can consider acting in the future, but not for the next seven years. Until then it’s just cricket for me.

IPL and Bollywood
I met Shah Rukh Khan during the IPL. I met him at parties, in the living room , etc. A couple of times even went to my room to find my parents . The interaction with him has always been warm and sweet. We’ve even discussed the game. Another actor I’ve interacted a lot with Preity Zinta ‘s how she becomes the leader of my team King XI Punjab. She is super funny and always if there are any problems . She would travel with us on the same flight . He is caring and concerned . And every time we would win a game , there was a party for us. And they were fun .

Buddy times
When we’re not playing cricket , we run to catch movies in theaters. Watching movies is the best way to relax together. Spending so much time together , we’re like family. In fact , we spent more time together than at home.
