"I am really honoured and thanks to NNG films and especially Paalooran, the director, and the Sajeev, the music director. This is my first Hindi project in which I will be singing a song and dancing. I am really grateful that the directors as well as all the people in Kerala are really supporting me, especially after my retirement. I am not from an artistic family, this is not my career but I will be giving 100 per cent in this profession. As a sports person, with all respect to other cricketers and sportspersons who have done acting, I believe I can do much much better," said Sreesanth

Sreesanth is pretty happy with his role in the movie and is really excited about his upcoming project.

"I am playing a good character in the movie. People have seen me dancing on reality shows but this is a dance-oriented comedy movie. It's got suspense in the end and a great climax. I am really looking forward. I have never danced even in my Tamil movie. This is why I am really excited. This is an interesting and challenging role for me," said the former pacer.

The former Indian cricketer also updated his fans that he will be doing cricket commentary, however, his main focus will be on playing league matches and growing his career further in the movies.

"I have been approached for commentary as well. I will be doing that in between but my focus will be playing league matches and doing as many movies as possible. I just want to give my best in everything I do," said Sreesanth.

Notably, none of the franchise acquired the services of the former Indian pacer in the Indian T20 League Mega Auction 2022.
