Doha, Qatar: Last night’s over-exciting FIFA WC match had all of us on our nerves throughout the match timing. Both Messi and Mbappe gave us major World Cup feels with their spine-chilling goals for their respective teams. The trophy might have gone to Argentina but Mbappe’s goals have all our hearts. In addition to the pride and happiness of millions of Messi fans witnessing their favorite Football player lifting the trophy, the Indian fans were also enthralled by seeing their very own “Shanti” Deepika Padukone unveiling the FIFA WC Trophy before the match started.
Deepika was seen alongside former Spanish goalkeeper Iker Casillas during the unveiling of the trophy. They escorted the trophy onto the ground. The actress became the 1st Indian ever to do the honor. She took to her Instagram handle to share the moment of pride. She posted a video from her moments in Qatar FIFA WC Final and captioned, “From unveiling the FIFA World Cup Trophy to witnessing one of the greatest games in sporting history, I truly couldn’t have asked for more…”
Husband Ranveer Singh who was also present in the stadium to witness the exhilarating World Cup final took to his Instagram handle to share the moment of pride as his wife Deepika unveiled the trophy. Sharing a post, Ranveer wrote “Bursting with pride. That’s my baby” and tagged Deepika in the post. Some other posts of Ranveer also showed both of them enjoying the match after the trophy unveiling was done.
This is actually a proud moment for all of us as Deepika Padukone set the bar higher for the country on international grounds. On the other hand, her co-actor from Pathaan, Shah Rukh Khan was also present in the Jio Studios to cheer for the World Cup enthusiasts and his favorite team. On the work front, they both have Pathaan releasing on Jan 25 next year.
