KL Rahul's Viral "This Is My Ground" Celebration Delights Father-in-Law Suniel Shetty
Star batsman KL Rahul receives instant call from Suniel Shetty following breathtaking display versus RCB in IPL.
In the heat of the IPL 2025 season, KL Rahul's dramatic "this is my ground" celebration after a match-winning 93 not out against Royal Challengers Bengaluru has taken center stage, leaving fans in awe and even earning praise from his father-in-law, Bollywood actor Suniel Shetty.
Rahul's electrifying act, inspired by the movie Kantara, resonated with viewers, gathering over 9k likes on social media. Speaking to Star Sports, Suniel shared his admiration for the celebration, stating it reminded him of Rahul's self-belief and finishing capacity, traits he showcased after the World Cup and Champions Trophy.
Suniel humorously revealed a shift in Rahul's training routine, including work on dialogue delivery with action directors, a far cry from his initial focus on net practice and functional training. He emphasized that Rahul is learning to balance social media pressure and enjoying the sport, finding joy in hitting sixes as much as scoring steady knocks.
As of now, Rahul has scored 371 runs in nine innings this season, at a striking rate of 146.06, underscoring his impressive form in the league.
