- Hi, guys! Danish is what my name is. Myntra Presents Bold Diaries - I am Danish. He's been an integral part of the system for the last year. Dev: Thank you so much for coming to our meeting. I'd like to ask you about the Indian callup. In just one year, you have been playing for RCB. You are also the first player in India to play for India. It must be an extraordinary feeling, man. All the interview you can read on this site: https://www.kntvnews.in/devdutt-padikkal-interview-part-1/

- Yeah, definitely. It took me a while to get used to it, but once I started practicing and getting into the swing of things, I realized just how fortunate I am to be able, you see, to be part Indian Team and to represent my country. It was very special.

It was quick. Are you able to take the time necessary to process it?

- Yes, it took me some effort, absolutely. It was clear that I had a goal in my life. To play for your nation is what this game is all about, so when I was there, it was definitely a wonderful experience.

- Now, what was the actual scenario when you were called up to the Indian team? Was it really that? Where were you?

- No, I was at my home. Rumors circulated about the announcement of the squad that day. Therefore, everyone was waiting to refresh their pages, refresh the website, and wait to see when it came out. And yes, when it did come out, I believe it was my coach who sent it to me first. So, yeah. There were messages, calls, and hugs all throughout the process.

- I've had conversations with some players who claim that they only discovered they made it to the Indian Team by looking at a newspaper article from the following day. Internet-enabled you to see people refreshing pages. Which player did you call first?

It was my coach. I believe he was actually the first to send me a screenshot of the squad. I saw the screenshot, so I immediately called him, and he congratulated me.

- So, what is this sir's real name?

His name, Nasir.

- Yeah, okay.

- He's from my academy and has been with us since we were probably 11 years. So, he's someone I've been with since I was 11 years old. I called him the first time I saw him.

Your career has been influenced by Nasir. Now let's take RCB as a brand... How have you been motivated to become part of the Indian team by playing here?
