Hrithik dumps Mumbai Indians for Rajasthan Royals

After stupendous success owing to his royal ‘Akbar’ act, it’s nothing but the best that works for gangly hunk Hrithik Roshan.

Living by the famous saying—‘In Bollywood you are as big as your last hit or the brand you endorse’, the stunner has switched his cricket loyalties from IPL team Mumbai Indians to last year’s winners Rajasthan Royals.

The actor, who wooed us all with his heart throbbing dancing number for the Mumbai team last year, will be seen cheering the Royals this season.

Whether or not Hrithik’s decision is inspired by Mumbai Indians’ lackluster performance at the pitch remains a mystery. Nevertheless, the actor has reportedly agreed to encourage Shilpa’s Royals.

Confirming the news a news daily quoted a source as saying, "Hrithik was on a one-year contract with the Mumbai cricket team. When approached for a renewal, the actor refused, citing date issues as he was busy with his film ‘Kites’."

Surprisingly, the dishy hunk was all-available for Shetty’s team. What’s more is that Shilpa will be shaking a leg with Hrithik in the video. Well, Hrithik surely knows how to be a part of the winning crowd.
