We’ve seen over the past numerous months that Virender Sehwag has a completely unique and yet hilarious way of wishing people. Be it on their birthdays – as he did with Sachin Tendulkar on Monday, or in banter with journalist Piers Morgan or even Tendulkar himself. Sehwag has created a niche for himself and become a social media personality with his witty wordplay and completely nonchalant way of wishing people and describing situations even during cricket matches. And on Tuesday, Sehwag took to social media platform Twitter to congratulate former teammate Zaheer Khan on his engagement to Sagarika Ghatge.
Ghatge is most popularly known for portraying the character of ‘Preeti Sabarwal in Bollywood movie Chak de India. Incidentally in the movie, Ghatge plays a hockey player who was engaged to a cricketer.
