'Jhoome Jo...': Shah Rukh Khan's 'Pathaan' message for Rinku Singh after IPL heroics

| @indiablooms | Apr 10, 2023, at 04:15 pm

Mumbai/IBNS: Bollywood superstar and Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) co-owner Shah Rukh Khan was among the countless cricket fans who were in awe of left-handed batter Rinku Singh who pulled off a miraculous win for his side from the cusp of defeat.

Shah Rukh borrowed the line from 'Jhoome Jo Pathaan' song of his last release Pathaan to wish Rinku for his heroics.

The actor tweeted, "JHOOME JO RINKUUUUU !!! My baby @rinkusingh235 And @NitishRana_27 & @venkateshiyer you beauties!!! And remember Believe that’s all. Congratulations @KKRiders and @VenkyMysore take care of your heart sir!"

After Rashid Khan's hattrick of wickets, KKR were in deep trouble in the run-chase against Gujarat Titans (GT) who had 29 runs in the last over to defend.

When most people had lost hope in KKR, Rinku slammed five consecutive sixes in the last over to almost snatch the win from GT's grip.

The southpaw's unbeaten 48 off 21 balls helped KKR score 207/7 in reply to GT's 204/4.
