New Delhi, July 26 Veteran Indian leg-spinner Yuzvendra Chahal celebrated his 35th birthday in grand style as he received a heartwarming surprise in London.
A group of dancers performed for him, leaving the cricketer stunned and emotional. Chahal, who turned 35 on July 23, shared a video of the celebration on Instagram and revealed that it was his first-ever birthday surprise in 30 years.
“Hum ladko ki kabhi kabhi puri life bhi nikal jati hai bina birthday celebrate kare. This is my first birthday surprise in 3 decades and probably the craziest! And the world was spinning when all of this was happening! Numb. Grateful. Overwhelmed. Hope we all get friends who make such efforts to make us smile. Meanwhile I am still trying to digest this fact that this HAPPENED IN REAL,” Chahal wrote.
