Dada ko Janamdin ki bahut badhai.
The only time he blinked his eye was when dancing down the track while hitting spinners for a 6, varna never. Eternally grateful for his support in initial days. #HappyBirthdayDada pic.twitter.com/U7k0Q9paJI

Happiest Birthday to Sourav Ganguly. Thank you for such beautiful innings in cricket.

Meanwhile, talking about his shirt removal episode, Dada had once spoken about in an interview with Barkha Dutt in 2018 and said, "Everybody says that it's the most iconic moment. But I wouldn't do it again. My daughter sees it asks why did you do that and I say, because I was happy. I came from a very conservative and shy Bengali family. It just happened in the heat of the moment." (Also Read: Virat Kohli And Anushka Sharma Trade Mushroom Biryani For Neer Dosas With Their Neighbour - Know More)
