Interestingly, there are rumours that Ranbir is the front-runner to star in a biopic on Ganguly, widely regarded as one of the finest captains.
This friendly match will only add more credence to the rumours.
At the event, Ganguly was all praise for Ranbir and his impressive work.
“It is not because you all are here and he is here that I have to say ‘he is good’. He is actually very good. I have seen every film of his, the last one was Brahmastra and I will see this one also. Whatever he does, I wish him the best,” Ganguly was quoted as saying at the promotional event.
The former BCCI president also praised the entire Kapoor family and opined that they have ‘acting in their genes’. “He (Ranbir) comes from a very famous and talented family. His father, mother, himself, and now his wife is a fantastic actor and I was telling him that. Acting is in his genes and in his blood. Acting is not like a sport that you have to stop after a while, so he can go on acting and entertaining people around the world,” Ganguly said.
