Gautam Gambhir is an intense, driven cricketer and someone who is unafraid to speak his mind, as he did when dedicating India’s World Cup win to the victims of the terrorist attack in November, 2008. In the Hindustan Times, Sukhwant Basra gets Gambhir to reveal a little bit more about himself, like how he is too shy to approach women, that he does not own a laptop and he lasered the hair off his legs.
Sitting in its opulent psychedelic drawing room, reminiscent of a futuristic sci-fi flick, one of the richest self-made 29-year-olds in the country says that “money after one point of time is irrelevant”. There are some roads he won’t cross. “Young kid on the road seeing me endorsing a pan masala/tobacco brand will fell there is nothing wrong with it. I won’t do that.”
