Kamal Haasan praised cricketer MS Dhoni before CSK’s match against RCB. Speaking as a guest on Star Sports to promote Indian 2, he spoke of Dhoni’s journey, talking about his rise from a small town. He said, “Let’s forget his stardom. Look at the endeavour of the man, where he started. It’s not the typical story of a young elite college boy becoming a cricketer. That’s what we had – I am talking of the times of Nawab of Pataudi, Nari Contractor, Engineer saab, Jaisimha. They are all elite people. At the peak of gully cricket… But, this guy came from a small town.”

Haasan spoke about his love for the cricketer and said that he lives his composure under pressure and the fact that he values the team. “Look at the span of the man. I admire that. There is a word which I constantly use in my vocabulary and he is a perfect example of that. I overuse it because I am very fond of that. It’s not just a word for me, it’s an attitude. And that’s called equipoise. At any given time, you keep your balance. The pressure of the game does not go to the man. I admire it because that’s what happens when he says action. The pressure is so much and it’s not always that he can say cut. There’s always another match, another over, but not letting the pressure come to you and maintain it – not just for you but for the whole team – that’s what I admire,” he added.
