Bollywood films have always had a strong following in Pakistan, its strained ties with India notwithstanding. Posters featuring actors and actresses from India’s much celebrated film industry were even seen playing a part during the election campaign in Pakistan. And when it comes to the country’s cricketers, there is not much exception to the rule.
Recently, Hasan Ali, Pakistan’s 24-year-old medium pacer also revealed his love for Bollywood flicks.

Ali hosted an interactive session on the social media platform for a few hours on Saturday, August 18, which marked two years since his debut in international cricket through a game versus Ireland. A fan asked him “Apki favourite movie konse hain.” He said ‘Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham’ and ‘PK’ are his favourite films.

K3G and PK

‘Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham’ is a 2001 multi-starrer blockbuster featuring Amitabh Bachchan, Shah Rukh Khan, Hrithik Roshan and others while ‘PK’ was released in 2014 and has Aamir Khan and Anushka Sharma in it. It has also been one of the highest grossing films in the history of Bollywood. ‘PK’ is understandably a hit with the Pakistanis since it has in its plot a love story between a Pakistani boy (played by Sushant Singh Rajput) and an Indian girl (Anushka Sharma) which gets its wings with the help of an alien played by Khan.

On the cricketing front, Hasan Ali has taken four Tests and 33 ODIs since his debut, taking 12 and 68 wickets, respectively. He made his debut in the longest format against the West Indies in an away series in 2017. In the T20 format, he has played 22 international matches and has 27 scalps so far. In the ODIs, Ali also has a fifty to his credit. He also has a strike rate of 168.42 in the T20Is. Ali last played for Pakistan in a ODI series against Zimbabwe in July that the Asian side won 5-0.
