Indian cricket team to watch 'Don 2' in Melbourne

The Indian cricket team is biting its nails in Melbourne over the Boxing Day cricket Test match, which starts Monday. Nothing like a Bollywood film like Don 2: The King Is Back to brighten up that tense evening on the weekend before the big match.

A special screening of the film has been arranged for Sunday evening in Melbourne by filmmakers Ritesh Sidhwani and Farhan Akhtar, to help the team relax.

“Farhan spoke to Sachin Tendulkar’s wife Anjali and I spoke to (Virender) Sehwag. We’ve organised a show for the team. The Indian cricket team will be seeing the film at the Hyotts Directors Lounge at Melbourne Central Hyotts Directors Lounge tomorrow night at 8 p.m. along with the managers and other people. There will be 60 people in all,” confirmed Sidhwani.

Don 2: The King Is Back is a slick action film, starring Shah Rukh Khan, Priyanka Chopra, Boman Irani, Kunal Kapoor and Lara Dutta in key roles. The film released Friday.
