Mumbai: At the kick-off event of the World Padel League season 3, Salman Khan revealed that unlike his friends from the industry, Shah Rukh Khan, Preity Zinta, Juhi Chawla and others, he has no plans of owning an IPL team.
At the event, when paparazzi asked Salman about his thoughts on buying an IPL franchise, the actor joked, “IPL ke liye too old ho gaye hum (I am too old to buy an IPL team now).”
He revealed that he had got an offer of buying an IPL team in 2008, but he didn’t accept it.
“IPL offer hua tha us waqt, liya nahi (The IPL offer was made earlier, but I didn’t accept it at that time). Aisa nahi hai ki pachta rahe hain hum. Khush hi hain hum (It is not like I have any regrets, I am happy),” he shared.
In another viral video from the same event, Salman left the audience in splits with his unusual idea of launching leagues based on childhood games.
“Main goti league kholunga, kanche, main gilly danda league kholunga is prakaar ke league khelunga, chain cook, hide and seek league, chor police league, main in sab league main interested hun. Aur phir educated log hai toh, main doctor-doctor league kholna chahunga (I will start a marbles league, a gilli-danda league. I want to play these kinds of leagues—chain cook, hide and seek, and cops and robbers. And since there are educated people, I would also like to start a ‘doctor-doctor’ league)”, he joked.
