Raj Kundra and Abhishek Bachchan are soccer mates

They say sports unite friends and foes alike. Abhishek Bachchan and Raj Kundra, who had only met socially earlier, apparently got along like a house on fire at the practice sessions of a celebrity football match.

Speaking about the time spent with Junior B, Kundra says, "He is a really nice guy. This is the first time I am playing in a celebrity soccer match and I hope to continue. I am glad I got to know Abhishek personally at this event. It is good to see when stars like Abhi and Ranbir Kapoor do their bits to support a charitable cause."

Abhishek is apparently an ardent fan of the English football team Chelsea. Kundra even put up a picture of them on a micro blogging site. The two later continued their conversation on the site.
