Former South African cricketer Jonty Rhodes recently got a taste of Indian cinema when he watched Ranveer Singh’s Gully Boy.

Rhodes, known for his fielding skills, has said that he has been listening to the film’s soundtrack on repeat since last year and that he had finally gotten a chance to watch it on his flight to India.

The South African expressed his admiration for the film on Twitter, saying: “Been listening to the #GullyBoy soundtrack ever since meeting @SiddhantChturvD last year at an event, finally got to watch the entire movie on my @emirates to India last night. Thanks to subtitles, I laughed; cried and had goosebumps @RanveerOfficial @aliaa08@kalkikanmani. (sic)”

Gully Boy is a Zoya Akhtar film inspired by the lives of Mumbai’s street rappers Vivian Fernandes, aka Divine, and Naved Shaikh, aka Naezy. The film tells the story of the underground rap scene in India. It starred Alia Bhatt, Kalki Koechlin, Siddhant Chaturvedi and Vijay Raaz in pivotal roles and has received a number of accolades.
