Actor #AngadBedi has said that it was important to set an example regarding ban on Australian cricket team captain #SteveSmith for ball tampering case in South Africa.
Angad Bedi walked the ramp for designer Narendra Kumar at Bombay Times Fashion Week on Saturday in Mumbai.
Cricket Australia slapped a one-year ban on Steve Smith and David Warner for their involvement in the ball-tampering scandal that unfolded during their third Test against South Africa in Cape Town, reacting to it, Angad said, ““I really feel whatever has happened is not correct because when you are representing your country as a captain then everybody looks up to you not in our country but in the entire world where cricket is played. They are worshipped so it is important to them to become fine ambassador of the game. They should set an example. Whatever has happened is bit sad but Steve Smith has been a phenomenal player but I think it was important to set an example because sports should not be taken lightly because kids look up to them so we are morally responsible as sports people to take their dreams forward.”
Angad Bedi next will be seen in Shaad Ali’ ‘Soorma’ which is based on former Indian hockey captain Sandeep Singh so when asked Angad whether a film should be made on his father’s life – Bishan Singh Bedi who was leg spinner in Indian cricket team, he said, “I think he is such a great personality that the more you write on him it will be lesser because he has led his life very openly and fearlessly when he was representing Indian cricket team. It is also important for a person who is making a film to understand how cricketer led their life in those times. Back then, cricket was a gentleman’s game but unfortunately not anymore, so I just feel that if you bring back that era through film then future generation will learn from it”
When asked Angad who will be apt choice to play Bishan Singh Bedi’s role in the film, he said, “I think it’s too early to decide that because firstly, my father has to give consent to make a film then accordingly, things should take place”
Angad Bedi was last seen in Ali Abbas Zafar’s ‘Tiger Zinda Hai’ along with Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif.
