Little did actress
Parvathy Nair know that she would be interviewing
Mathew Hayden
for a TV show. The actress, who was there for another shoot, got to interview the Australian cricketer by chance and spent a day with him.
���I was staying in the same hotel as Hayden, who was here for Tamil Nadu Premiere League. My brother, who works for a sports channel, was looking at doing an interesting show with Hayden. So, they called me to interview him. My father and brother used to play a lot of cricket and we used to follow matches when I was young. It was so nice to have met someone whom I admired. He���s a gentleman. He didn���t have any airs about him and was extremely sweet,��� says an excited Parvathy.
And the fun part, she says, ���I had to introduce him to all things Tamil. From making him speak in Tamil, binge on spicy food, to teaching him to wear a veshti and taking him to watch Kabali ��� I had a great time working with him. The best part was he imitated Rajinikanth after watching the film! While he did learn a lot on Tamilians and their culture, I hope to know more about cricket the next time I meet him.���
