The makers of Azhar starring Emraan Hashmi have released the first behind the scenes video of him getting trained by cricketer Mohammed Azharuddin. While Azhar had truly taken it upon himself to teach Emraan the nuances of cricket from batting techniques to his stance, the video is a clear portrayal of the hard work put in by Emraan to fit into Azhar’s shoes!
Emraan added, “I’ve looked up to him and followed pretty much every match when he was playing. His advice on everything is very clear and he doesn’t put much pressure. He lets you be and slowly you see the parts of your game get better,”

It was a delight to see the fun camaraderie shared by the two in the video and we can’t wait to see Emraan bring the untold story of Azharuddin to life at a theatre near you!
