But he added that his team filled with actors — whose faces are their fortunes — were committed to playing some fierce football. “We take it very seriously! These boys practice a lot in Mumbai every Sunday for over three hours. We’re not natural athletes. We belong to the set who believe that it doesn’t matter how good you do something, what matters is how good you look doing it. So, we try our best to get our hair and make-up right! Jokes apart, it’s an honour to play with a squad of ex-professional footballers,” said Bachchan.

The stars also spoke about how football as a sport taught them vital life lessons. Kapoor, who recently got married to actress Alia Bhatt in an intimate ceremony, claimed that football gave him much-needed confidence when he was growing up.
