Dhoni, captain of the Chennai Super Kings and Vijay, its Star Ambassador, met the Media separately, here today and said they admired each other’s status.
Dhoni said of Vijay: “He is a real crowd-puller and a super star. It was a privilege meeting him.”
On his part, Vijay confessed to being overawed by Dhoni’s personality and in every sense he was the real super star.
“What can I say about Dhoni? When we first met during the launch last month, I was pleasantly surprised when he told me that he liked the way I danced and also had seen my song sequences on the television. I am a great admirer of Dhoni and him being the captain of our country’s team, the privilege was all mine to have met him,” Vijay gushed.
When asked about his interest in cricket, Vijay said: “I have always been a huge fan of cricket. Of course, like any other kid, I also played cricket. All my family members are cricket fans. So, it’s quite natural for me to be associated with the sport even if as a Star Ambassador. But for me, there is only one Super Star here, and that is Dhoni.”
Vijay said he would try to be present for all of Super Kings’ home matches at the MA Chidambaram Stadium. “I will have to rework my shooting schedule, but I will definitely try to attend all our matches here and cheer for my team,” he reiterated.
In a lighter vein, Vijay, replying to a query, said he would definitely take up a project with cricket as a theme. On persistent questioning whether he would have Dhoni in the film, Vijay simply laughed.
