Indian in his outlook Yuvraj always prays before he enters the field, so is he superstitious too when Injury disrupts play? “I am not a superstitious person and so superstitious beliefs don’t bother me when I am playing,” he says.I think aloud; Bollywood and Cricket clash or can they co-exist? “Take the movie Lagaan as an example - the added flavour of cricket took the movie to a new height all together. Both Bollywood and Cricket evoke their own unique fervours with the Indian viewer and together they have the potential to create history” he says.Speaking of his unadorned style in clothes Yuvraj, who has produced UV, his own label with Reebok quips, “ Denims with bright graphics tees are my style mantra. To feel good is to look good. And Reebok helps me relax yet stay stylish.” Delve in a little more about his endorsement of this brand his fixation, he continues, “I have been with Reebok from the start of my career and I do not cease to be amazed by the constant innovation, the effort and detailing the brand puts into producing cricket related gear.” So does he give inputs to the design team, considering he is the brand ambassador? “I have been involved in the design aspects of the footwear line and they always include me in their design plans.” I quiz him on his alleged link-ups with Kim Sharma and Deepika Padukone.Not one to bite the persuasive bait he smiles coyly and insists on heaping praise on “my inspiration and one man I admire world-over is Sachin Tendulkar.” What about Indian women? He giggles and nods (as if to say, why won’t you relent) and continues, “Indian Women are the perfect amalgamation of sensitivity and smartness. They are the most beautiful women in the world.” Where does this young gun see himself ten years from now? “Married and settled with kids,” he says and blushes “and even more successful.” Just to give a feelgood end to our chat I tell him of our admiration for his youthful attitude, energy, sporty style and a simple sensuality.Giggling like a little child he intercepts “I don’t know if I have sensuality but I certainly posses the rest.” Let's hope he develops that too, in times to come.
