Madhuri Dixit has always been known to be a Gavaskar fan. Her fandom was clear from her recent statements. Some time ago, an old video surfaced where Madhuri confessed her love for the little master. The interview featured 23-year old Madhuri while Gavaskar was 41.
“I’m mad for Sunil Gavaskar. He is too sexy. I want to run behind him and he even came in my dream. I have seen him playing cricket for India and I like so much.” She was quoted as saying in the video.
Sunil Gavaskar in his days was regarded as the greatest batsman in world cricket. He was considered to be the best technical Indian batsman and was famous for his heroics against West Indian and Australian fast bowlers.
