One of the biggest YouTube stars in the country, actor Bhuvan Bam, is known for collaborating with some of the most popular names from the world of entertainment and showbiz. Now, with the Indian Premier League (IPL) season getting into full swing, it was just a matter of time before Bam collaborated with one of the best cricketers in the league and in India. Bam recently shot a special video with eminent cricketer Shikhar Dhawan. The video is yet to release; reports say the video showcases Bhuvan Bam and Shikhar Dhawan's camaraderie and shared passion for entertainment and sports.
The collaboration between the content creator and Dhawan promises to deliver an engaging and unique viewing experience for fans of both entertainment and cricket. Expressing his enthusiasm about the collaboration, Bam shared, "Working with Shikhar Dhawan has been an absolute delight. His energy and passion for the project were truly infectious, and we had a blast shooting together. Collaborating with someone of Shikhar’s calibre not only adds value to the content but also allows us to reach a wider audience, bridging the worlds of entertainment and sports seamlessly."
The content creator with 26.4 million subscribers on YouTube is a self-confessed fan of MS Dhoni and had even taken to his social media to show the signed jersey he had received from the cricketer a few years ago. Last year, during the shoot of the Amazon miniTV series Rafta Rafta, Bam had shared how the cast and crew would often play cricket between the shots and that most of the BTS videos show them playing the game. Like we said, it was just a matter of time before he collaborated with a cricketer and what better time than the IPL!
Meanwhile, the Punjab Kings skipper has admitted that dropping Virat Kohli off the second ball of the second innings cost his side in the four-wicket defeat to the Royal Challengers Bengaluru on March 25. Dhawan said after the match against RCB: "Virat (Kohli) scored 70-odd runs after we dropped a catch of a class player like him, we paid the price. If we had taken that catch, the momentum would have come from the second ball. But we lost the momentum over there and then we paid the price for that."
Dhawan also praised left-arm spinner Harpreet Brar for almost single-handedly keeping their team in the game.
Shikhar Dhawan became Punjab Kings captain in 2023, taking over from Mayank Agarwal who now plays for the Sunrisers Hyderabad. Punjab Kings have already played two matches in IPL 2024. They have won one (against the Delhi Capitals on March 23) and lost one (against the Royal Challengers Bangalore on March 25).
