After the historic series win against Australia in their own backyard, Team India is all set to take on a formidable England.
Indian team vice-captain Ajinkya Rahane, senior batsman Rohit Sharma and pacer Shardul Thakur arrived in Chennai on Tuesday for the first two Tests against England.
Ajinkya Rahane, yesterday on Instagram, took some time off to answer the questions of fans via 'Ask Me Anything!'.
One of the fans asked Rahane if he "had ever watched a Tamil movie or series"? The ace batsman replied that he had recently watched Suriya-starrer 'Soorarai Pottru'.
Rahane wrote, "Yes I watched Soorarai Pottru with subtitles. And absolutely loved it. Brilliant work by actor Suriya."
He also tagged Indian spinner Ravichandran Ashwin and asked the Chennai lad for more Tamil movie recommendations.
He wrote, "Which reminds me do you have any more recommendations for movies Ravichandran Ashwin."
Ashwin, who was very quick with his response, asked Rahane to watch Vijay-starrer 'Master'.
He wrote, "How about Master 'Jinx'??"
It will be interesting to see if Rahane takes Ashwin's suggestion and ends up watching the 2021 Blockbuster.
