In the world of Indian cricket, Abhishek Sharma has quickly become a name to watch, not just for his explosive batting but also for his light-hearted, relatable personality. Fresh off a stellar IPL season, the young India batter recently made headlines—not for his on-field heroics, but for his witty banter with the paparazzi. As he gears up to appear on the much-loved ‘The Great Indian Kapil Show’ alongside cricketing stalwarts like Gautam Gambhir, Rishabh Pant, and Yuzvendra Chahal, Abhishek’s off-field charm is winning hearts across the nation.
Abhishek Sharma’s comical reply to a paparazzi’s request
It was a regular day for the paparazzi, eager to capture every move of their favorite cricket stars. But when Abhishek stepped out, he gave them a moment to remember. As cameras flashed and shutters clicked, Abhishek, with a grin, quipped, “Aake lo na, abhi mera makeup kharab ho jayega (Please click pictures when I return, my makeup will get ruined right now).” The video, unsurprisingly, went viral, drawing laughter and admiration from fans who appreciated his candid, humorous side.
This playful exchange is a refreshing reminder that even sports icons have their moments of vulnerability—and a sense of humor to match. Abhishek’s witty response not only lightened the mood but also showcased his ability to connect with fans beyond the cricket field. In an era where athletes are often seen as serious and stoic, his light-heartedness is a breath of fresh air. It’s no wonder that anticipation is high for his appearance on ‘The Great Indian Kapil Show’, where his camaraderie with teammates and comic timing are sure to shine.

Abhishek’s batting brilliance and future ventures of Team India
While Abhishek’s viral moment off the field has caught the public’s imagination, his on-field exploits are equally deserving of the spotlight. The IPL 2025 saw him amass an impressive 439 runs in 13 innings, including a century and two fifties, at a jaw-dropping strike-rate of 193.39. Despite Sunrisers Hyderabad’s (SRH) all-out batting approach not always yielding results, Abhishek’s performances stood out, marking him as a key player for the future.
As the cricketing calendar turns, the focus now shifts to the upcoming five-match Test series in England—India’s first assignment in the new World Test Championship cycle. With stalwarts like Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli having retired from Test cricket, the spotlight is on the next generation. Under Shubman Gill’s leadership, and with the likes of Abhishek in the mix for T20Is, Indian cricket fans have much to look forward to.
