The Way TNPL Has Grown Over The Years Is Immense: Shahrukh Khan (ld)
Tamil Nadu Premier League: Cricketer Shahrukh Khan believes the Tamil Nadu Premier League (TNPL) has played a major role in the growth of cricket in the state, providing a platform for young players to showcase their talent and a pathway towards the Indian Premier League. Shahrukh himself is among the players who have benefited from the TNPL platform. After spending nearly two decades in the Tamil Nadu cricket system, the hard-hitting batter has established himself as one of the states prominent white-ball players and an IPL cricketer. The 2026 season marked another highlight in Shahrukh's TNPL journey as he guided Kovai Kings to their third championship. The team beat Madurai Panthers by 84 runs in the final held at MA Chidambaram Stadium on August 28. Andre Siddarths quick 82 off 47 balls contributed to a solid team total, and Kovai's bowlers dismissing Madurai for just 98. For Shahrukh, however, the importance of the TNPL goes beyond his own success. TNPL has been a platform for a lot of players from Tamil Nadu, including me, Natarajan, Varun Chakravarthy, a lot of players, Shahrukh said in an exclusive conversation with IANS. He believes the tournaments growth over the years has been significant and that its impact is now evident in the number of players from Tamil Nadu who have gone on to play in the IPL. And the way the tournament has grown over the years is just immense. And not just TNPL but the other leagues that happen around India as well. But the first domestic tournament for a state T20 was TNPL and very fortunate to be a part of this tournament, he said. The league, which began in 2016, has increasingly become an important fixture in the Tamil Nadu cricket calendar. For young players, it offers an opportunity to play alongside experienced domestic cricketers and to perform under pressure in front of a wider audience. Shahrukh feels that the process is continuing to work, with new players emerging every season. And every year, you see new talents coming up. I hope even this year, the IPL scouts see a few talents and picks so that the tournament grows even bigger next year, he said. Shahrukh has played cricket in the states circuit for around 20 years and has encountered a range of leadership styles across his age-group, league, domestic and IPL careers. He believes these experiences have helped him develop his own understanding of leadership. But when it comes to the foundation of his captaincy, Shahrukh looks closer to home. I think I have been in Tamil Nadu circuit for about 20 years now. So there are various captains that I have played under in league matches, the local league that happens here. And obviously, I have been playing age group cricket for a very long time. And played under a lot of captains in IPL as well, but the base foundation for me in terms of captaincy is the sort of cricket that we play here in Tamil Nadu, the league structure, he said. He specifically credited Ashwin Venkatraman, a prominent figure in the Tamil Nadu league circuit and a former associate of Kovai Kings, for aiding his understanding of the tactical aspects of captaincy. I have really looked up to a person, a captain called Ashwin Venkatraman. He is a player in Tamil Nadu league here. So he has been really vital in terms of how to go about in a game of cricket and how to read a batsmans mind before he does something, Shahrukh said. His IPL experiences have shaped his leadership style. Shahrukh has shared dressing rooms with several seasoned captains and has watched how they manage various situations. And obviously, playing IPL, I have seen a lot of captains. And from afar, if you look at it, MS Dhoni has always been my idol in terms of captaincy. And the pattern in which I go about is whatever I have got from him, he added. Shahrukh's IPL 2026 season with Gujarat Titans was disappointing, leading to his removal from the playing XI during the tournament. He later disclosed that he had been battling a technical flaw in his batting for several months. And obviously, playing IPL, I have seen a lot of captains. And from afar, if you look at it, MS Dhoni has always been my idol in terms of captaincy. And the pattern in which I go about is whatever I have got from him, he added.

Gujarat Titans batter Shahrukh Khan has praised Shubman Gill's evolution as a leader, describing the India Test and ODI captain as a highly tactical cricketer whose mind is always working on the game.
His Mind Is Constantly Running, Says GTs Shahrukh On Gills Evolution As Captain
New Delhi: Gujarat Titans batter Shahrukh Khan has praised Shubman Gills evolution as a leader, describing the India Test and ODI captain as a highly tactical cricketer whose mind is always working on the game. Shahrukh has been in the Gujarat Titans dressing room with Gill and has witnessed the young batter develop from an emerging IPL leader into Indias captain. He noted that Gills leadership qualities are not always obvious externally but become more clear to teammates who train with him daily. Obviously, as a captain, he has grown immensely from captaining Gujarat Titans to captaining the countrys Test side. I dont have to explain how good a captain he is. Because we saw the series in England, the way he captained, how aggressive he was whenever the team needed him to be. And looking at his journey as a captain, its been wonderful to share the dressing room alongside him, where he understands players very well, Shahrukh said in an exclusive conversation with IANS. Gills rise is noteworthy considering the responsibility he has assumed at a young age. Shahrukh considers his tactical awareness to be one of the key strengths of his captaincy. He is somebody who is very tactical. Doesnt look like much when you see from the outside. But as teammates, when you see him every day at practise and in the game, his mind is constantly running on what to do, he said. He has got so many options in his head which he more often than not chooses the right thing. And to be playing under him is a pleasure. Shahrukhs remarks follow a challenging IPL 2026 season for him. Though retained by Gujarat Titans for Rs 4 crore, he failed to make a significant impact and was dropped from the playing XI halfway through the season. For Shahrukh, the difference between his IPL challenges and his success in TNPL, where he steered his team to victory with crucial performances, highlights the unpredictable nature of T20 cricket. IPL is always the best league in the world. And to be a part of it and to be playing for the last 6-7 years, I feel very fortunate and lucky. Because the level in which the players are in terms of mindset is the ultimate level for any youngster to play. And from there, obviously, you want to play for the country. But yeah, Ive had tremendous years and some bad years as well, he said. For Shahrukh, the difference between his IPL challenges and his success in TNPL, where he steered his team to victory with crucial performances, highlights the unpredictable nature of T20 cricket.

'I Really Wish To Meet Salman Khan More Than SRK: Cricketer Shahrukh Khan
Tamil Nadu Premier League: Tamil Nadu cricketer Shahrukh Khan has spent much of his career carrying a name instantly recognisable across India, but despite the obvious connection to Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan, the Tamil Nadu batter has a different celebrity at the top of his wish list. Shahrukh, who recently led Kovai Kings to their third Tamil Nadu Premier League (TNPL) title, said he has not yet met the Bollywood superstar he was named after. If he could choose, the Tamil Nadu player would rather meet Salman Khan than his famous namesake. I really wish to meet Salman Khan more than Shah Rukh, the cricketer said in an exclusive conversation with IANS. The 29-year-old has had multiple chances to meet his famous namesake during his IPL career, especially in matches against Kolkata Knight Riders. However, these opportunities never came to fruition since Shah Rukh Khan was absent from the games. I havent (met him) as yet. I havent met Shahrukh Khan as yet. But yeah, hope to meet him soon. We played quite a few matches against KKR. But I actually missed the opportunity to meet Shahrukh Khan. He obviously did not come for the game. If he would have come, obviously, I would have met him. But you know, I really wish to meet Salman Khan more than Shahrukh, he said. The meeting with Shah Rukh Khan might be especially intriguing for the cricketer. Since he was born after the Bollywood star, Shahrukh is aware that he was named after the actor and is eager to see how the superstar responds when they finally meet. No, I will wait for his reaction first. Because I was born after him. So, I was named after him. So, I hope, I have heard that he has got an uncanny sense of humour. Obviously, I am good friends with Varun Chakravarthy. And he said that he is a really wonderful person at heart .And waiting to see what sort of an uncanny sense of humour he has. And yeah, really excited to meet him, he said. While his name has often been a talking point, Shahrukh has carved out his own identity in Tamil Nadu cricket over the past several years. He has been part of the states cricket circuit for about two decades and has emerged as one of Tamil Nadus leading white-ball players. His journey has taken him to the IPL, where he has played for multiple franchises and, most recently, represented Gujarat Titans. The most recent achievement was in the TNPL, where he guided Kovai Kings to their third championship. The team beat Madurai Panthers by 84 runs in the final, making them only the second team in the tournament's history to secure three titles. Shahrukh sees the TNPLs significance extending beyond his personal achievements. He considers the tournament a crucial stepping stone for young cricketers in Tamil Nadu, having already facilitated several players' progress to the IPL and other higher tiers of domestic cricket. Yeah, TNPL has been a platform for a lot of players from Tamil Nadu including me, Natarajan, Varun Chakravarthy, a lot of players and the way the tournament has grown over the years is just immense. And not just TNPL but the other leagues that happen around India as well. But the first domestic tournament for a state T20 was TNPL and very fortunate to be a part of this tournament, he said. And every year, you see new talents coming up. I hope even this year, the IPL scouts see a few talents and picks so that the tournament grows even bigger next year, he added. Shahrukhs own TNPL campaign was particularly significant following a difficult IPL 2026 season with Gujarat Titans. And every year, you see new talents coming up. I hope even this year, the IPL scouts see a few talents and picks so that the tournament grows even bigger next year, he added.

When cinema lovers watch a movie in a language they dont understand, they rely on sub-titles. But there is a large section of the audience that relies on dubbed versions of films that are in an alien language for them. The task is carried out by dubbing artistes who are today more known as voice artistes or voice actors. Ketan Kavva is one such artiste who has been in the dubbing field for over 15 years. He has dubbed for various movies and shows. His noteworthy assignment this year involves voicing Jaafar Jacksons character in Michael in Hindi. In other words, he gave voice to the character of the legendary Michael Jackson in the film. Interestingly, he started his journey by dubbing one dialogue in the Shahid Kapoor and Kareena Kapoor Khan starrer Chup Chup Ke, for which he earned Rs. 300. In an exclusive chat with Bollywood Hungama, Ketan Kavva opened up about his work and journey so far. What did you keep in mind or what kind of preparations did you do while giving the Hindi voice for the character of Michael Jackson in Michael? Voicing Michael was a very special responsibility for me because he is such an iconic personality. My first priority was to make sure that the Hindi voice felt authentic to the character and, at the same time, remained natural for the Indian audience. I paid a lot of attention to his mannerisms, his pauses, his emotional expressions and the way he delivered his lines. Since I was voicing Jaafar Jackson portraying Michael, I also had to make sure that my performance complemented his performance rather than becoming an imitation of Michael Jackson. After 15 years in dubbing, Ive learned that you cannot just translate the words - you have to understand the character and the emotion behind every line. That was my biggest focus while dubbing Michael. Did you also carry out any research on the real Michael Jackson? Yes, definitely. I went back to Michael Jacksons interviews, performances and videos to understand his personality, his mannerisms and especially the way he spoke. The film is a performance by an actor portraying Michael, so my job was to support that performance in Hindi. The research helped me understand the person behind the character, which ultimately helped me make my dubbing more convincing. How was the experience of carrying out the Gujarati dubbing for Tom Holland in Spider-Man? It has been a very special experience because Tom Hollands Spider-Man has been a character that Ive had the opportunity to voice in Gujarati, including Spider-Man: Homecoming and Spider-Man: Far From Home. Gujarati dubbing also comes with its own challenge because you want the language to sound completely natural while retaining the energy, humour and personality of the original performance. For me, it was particularly satisfying because Spider-Man is such a globally loved character, and being able to bring that character to Gujarati-speaking audiences in their own language is something Im very proud of. Apart from voicing human characters, Im also known for specialised voice work involving animal sounds, reactions and character voices. For instance, in Netflixs animated series Sharkdog, I have voiced Sharkdog in Hindi, including his barking sounds, reactions and expressions. In Superpupz, I have also dubbed the parrot character in Hindi. I have also dubbed for Luke in Kalki 2898 AD in Hindi. In gaming, I voiced the character Maxim in Free Fire, and my Hindi voice can be heard in-game itself. I have been the Hindi voice of Robin, the lead character in Teen Titans Go! on Cartoon Network for over 10+ years. Being associated with the character for such a long period has been one of the most memorable parts of my dubbing journey. What is the biggest challenge for a dubbing artiste? I think the biggest challenge is to make people forget that they are watching a dubbed performance. The audience should feel that the character is actually speaking in their language. For that, you have to match the actors emotion, timing, expressions and lip movements, while also making the dialogue sound natural. Sometimes you may have only a few seconds to deliver a line with exactly the right emotion and timing. So, dubbing is not just about having a good voice - it requires acting, observation, timing and a lot of discipline. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Ketan Kavva (@ketankavva) Are there more opportunities for dubbing artistes because of the emergence of OTT? Absolutely. OTT has changed the dubbing industry tremendously. Today, audiences are consuming content from different countries and in different languages, so the demand for quality dubbing has increased significantly. Earlier, dubbing was often looked at as something secondary. Today, there is much more awareness about the importance of a good dubbed performance. With films, web series, animation, anime and even games being localised into multiple Indian languages, there are definitely more opportunities for voice artistes. At the same time, the competition has also increased, so artistes need to constantly improve their acting and language skills. You were paid Rs. 300 for your services as a dubbing artiste for Chup Chup Ke, which was your first proper assignment. Can you recall that experience? I remember it very clearly because Rs. 300 may sound like a very small amount today, but at that time it meant something completely different to me. It was my first proper professional dubbing assignment, and honestly, I was just extremely excited to be inside a studio and getting paid to do something I genuinely loved. I dont think I was thinking about how much I was earning. I was thinking, this is what I want to do. Looking back after 15 years, those Rs. 300 feel more valuable than many bigger cheques because it was the beginning of my professional journey. It gave me the confidence that I could actually build a career out of dubbing. You gained an interest in dubbing from your uncle (kaka). He has dubbed for popular shows like Ramayan and Mahabharat in Gujarati. Did you ever hear any interesting stories from him while he was dubbing for these two epic shows? Yes. My uncle was one of the inspirations behind me getting into dubbing. As a child, I used to hear about his work and that naturally created an interest in me. One thing that stayed with me was how different dubbing was in those days. There was no technology or convenience like we have today. The process was much more manual, and artistes had to be extremely precise with their dialogue and timing. Hearing about his experiences on shows like Ramayan and Mahabharat made me realise that voice acting could actually be a profession. In a way, I feel I inherited my interest in dubbing from him, and then over the years I developed my own style and identity as a voice artiste.
