“Rohit Mumbai Ka Raja.. Not Hardik”, Bollywood Actor Riteish Deshmukh Gives Bold Comment on Indian Captain !!

Rohit Sharma was removed from the captaincy of Mumbai Indians ahead of IPL 2024 and Hardik Pandya was appointed as the new captain in his place. However, the fans did not like this and they supported Rohit with the slogan ‘Mumbai ka Raja Rohit Sharma’ throughout the tournament.

Now Bollywood actor Riteish Deshmukh has given his opinion on Mumbai ka Raja. During the promotion of his upcoming film, he jokingly said that even though Hardik is the captain of MI, Rohit will always be the king of Mumbai.

Riteish Deshmukh recently spoke in a podcast interview with journalist Shubhankar Mishra on YouTube channel. Fellow actor Saqib Saleem was also present with Deshmukh. Shubhankar Mishra has shared a video clip of that podcast interview. In the video, he asks who is the king of Mumbai. To this, Deshmukh says that the captain is Hardik, but the king is Rohit Sharma.

Rohit Sharma retires from T20 International.

Let us tell you that Mumbai Indians have won five IPL titles under the captaincy of Rohit Sharma. At the same time, recently India won the T20 World Cup 2024 title under the leadership of Rohit Sharma. After winning the title, Rohit Sharma has retired from T20 International and now there is also discussion about whether he will play in the franchise cricket league or not.

After Rohit Sharma’s retirement, Hardik was expected to become the captain of the Indian team in T20 International, as Hardik was the vice-captain in both World Cup 2023 and T20 World Cup 2024. But Suryakumar Yadav has been appointed captain for the T20 series against Sri Lanka. While Shubman Gill has been made the vice-captain.

However, Rohit Sharma will continue to captain India in Tests and ODIs and he will also be seen leading the team in the Champions Trophy 2025.
