It’s an opportunity for us actors to unite and have lots of fun on and off the field. I remember a hilarious incident when once on field I hit a shot in the air and within moments Manoj was under the ball. I screamed "Please drop it." But he didn’t, and later in a fun manner came to the crease smiling and said, "Sorry, paaji, sorry yaar, ghalti hogaya. Now, I am very excited to see what this new season has in hold for all of us.”
