India's Champions Trophy 2025 Hero Made His Film Debut Way Before Playing For National Side
It was a brilliant campaign for Varun Chakravarthy in the Champions Trophy 2025 as the Indian cricket team spinner ended up as the second best wicket-taker in the competition. He impressed everyone with his disciplined bowling and ended up taking 9 wickets in just 3 matches. It was the perfect show from the spinner who made his name in the domestic circuit and as a part of the Kolkata Knight Riders side in the Indian Premier League (IPL). However, even before making his T20I debut for India in 2021, he played a cameo in a 2014 Tamil movie called 'Jeeva' with Vishnu Vishal in the lead role. He was a budding cricketer at that time and it took him some time to finally achieve his dream of playing international cricket.
