Sports lovers would be aware of the name of lady cricketer, Mithali Raj. She is a Hyderabadi who captained the national team and received several awards from the government. Mithali says that she was approached several times to act in movies.
“Since I had good physical fitness, the producers who approached me felt that I would be received well by the audiences. But although I watch and like films, I was never interested in acting. We sportspeople cannot give so much time as filmmaking is a long process.
Otherwise, Sachin Tendulkar would have been a great actor by now. But we prefer to practice in the ground. As of now, I am doing ad films. I am not looking at films. Let’s see what the future has in store,” said Mithali Raj.
In recent times, badminton player Jwala Gutta made her debut in Tollywood with an item song in Nithiin’s ‘Gunde Jaari Gallanthayyindhe’. Success in one field naturally evokes a response from the film industry.
