    We knew him well from the days of his cricket career.. As a statesman he is a gentleman with composed mindset and fascinating personality . His speeches are serious and to the point unlike BJP leaders. Indian legends like Sunil Gavasker, Kapil Dev Siddhu, Bedi and many Indian cricketers still are very kind and developed healthy relationship with him.

    Just like Modi, Imran Khan too has the talent to take his bhakths to La La Land....
    They can offer tremendous hope and solace with their powerful speeches.

    While Imran Khan is in a soup struggling to save economy and controlling military, Modi has a free ride on bhakths shoulders.
