India Vs Pakistan World Cup 2019: Samir Soni, Jasmin Bhasin, Nishant Malkani, Helly Shah Gear Up For The Nail-Biting Match
It's that crucial and exciting time when India will battle it out against Pakistan in the ICC World Cup 2019. Naturally, the whole country is excited including our TV actors. Know what they have to say
Today is India-Pakistan cricket match in the ICC World Cup and we are set! Here’s how these TV actors are going to enjoy the match!
Shehzad Shaikh: Well, cricket has always been special to our country. Everyone really likes cricket. But I grew up in a multicultural society so I have been in a room where we were 6 Pakistanis and 6 Indians and we have been very close throughout the year. But on this day for 6-7 hours, you will see everyone hopping on each other. People tend to take it up politically and patriotically. But if you are someone who stays in the Middle East or outside there you will see the Indians and Pakistanis eat together, stay together and watch the match together. It brings our Indian sub-continent together it brings out good rivalry together. And at the end of the day, what is the fun in cricket if you don't have an arch-enemy to fight against. I think I am going to watch the match and will video call all my friends all over. And I think a lot of TV's are going to break on the day of the match. So, for the good spirit of cricket and unity, we love each other but then again it is a World Cup so we want the victory.
Samir Soni: I think cricket is a religion in India Because it crosses all the boundaries regardless of your caste, creed and everyone comes together for a cause and that's India. That's one of the most unifying factors in the entire country. And if the match is against Pakistan, it makes it more exciting because Pakistan is our arch-rival because of whatever is happening at the border. And whatever is happening at the field is just meant to be enjoyed.
Ira Sone: I feel that cricket is not just a game but it is an emotion, especially when it is India vs Pakistan match. The energy and the adrenaline are so high when everybody gets together and to me, that's important as everybody together hoots for our Indian Cricket team. We have a really good team and a really good game going on this year so I am very confident that we are going to get this one too, so cheers to team India.
Angad Hasija: Not only me but the excitement and eagerness of the whole nation rises when it comes to the match of India vs Pakistan. Kids, adults and the older generation; all of them come together and enjoy watching the match at home. Also, cricket has become our religion and the match which is going to take place on 16th has created a hysteria all over, everyone is really very excited and even I am excited though I am not much of a cricket person since it's India vs Pakistan's match that is the reason why I am excited. I will go out with my friends and we will sit and watch the match together.
Sahil Anand: Yes, like the whole nation, I am also very excited and everybody is looking forward to this match. I am very glad that after such a brief pause this match is happening again. And whereas unity is considered so I'd like to add one point that they are our competition. The cricketers are doing their job. And people should see this match as a sport event only and not something else. And the patriotic streak can be seen in any match, that may be any country against whom India is playing with. But comparatively, the tussle is more when Pakistan is the opponent. So, I feel that people should see this match as a game only.
Nishant Malkani: An India-Pakistan match is no less than a festival for all the Indians as it brings out the most patriotic self of an Indian. We have so much history with Pakistan and there are so many things that we do not agree with them and there are a lot of times that they have tried to hurt us, sometimes morally and most of the time immorally. There is a lot of excitement for our team as it is playing outstandingly and very rarely they have performed less than anybody from Pakistan. This time our team is extremely strong and on the 16th the match is going to unify the whole country. I am going to personally enjoy it with my friends and my plans are already made. I have taken an off from the shoot just to sit at home and watch the match with my friends and celebrate India's victory. Cricket does unify us when we have India- Pakistan match and there is one song on all our lips which is hooting for our Indian team and I actually believe that the World Cup should come to India again this year.
Sana Makbul Khan: I am so damn excited! I like cricket but I am shooting for my new show Vish so I will catch the score updates on my mobile. If I get an off, I will see the match on TV with my friends and chill. India-Pakistan match is always interesting. People should not make this a political matter but should rather take it in a sporting spirit. Not only me, but my whole family will sit together and watch this match especially provided I get an off on that day.
Jasmin Bhasin: Not only me but the excitement and eagerness of the whole nation rises when it comes to India v/s Pakistan match. People of all age groups come together and all the other activities come to a halt. I am sure that on 16th, no one will step out of their houses as it is a Sunday too. It will be great fun to watch the match over a tub of popcorn.
Helly Shah: The hype and excitement of India v/s Pakistan match, is incomparable to any other matches or any other team that plays against India. And since, it is a Sunday on 16th, so everyone must have cancelled their other plans and every cricket fan across the nations will sit before their TV sets without even wasting a second. I might not be able to watch the whole match since I will be shooting that day. But I will keep myself updated with the score in between.
Yesha Rughani: I remember, earlier, people used to burn firecrackers whenever India used to win. But this time the competition is much higher. And lastly, as it is said, the best one always wins. And I think the history will repeat itself. And I have faith in Virat Kohli's captainship, even this time the boys will bring the trophy home.
