In the comment section, a Twiteerat observed that all the instances have happened in an odd year too.
Sanjay Dutt made a cameo in Shah Rukh Khan's 2007 film 'Om Shanti Om' in the song 'Dewaangi'. In the same year, the Indian team won the first T20 World Cup.
Four years later, in 2011, Sanjay Dutt made a cameo in Khan's film 'Ra.One'. In the same year, India won the ODI World Cup after 28 years.
Now, in 2023, Sanjay Dutt played a special role in Khan's biggest film 'Jawan'. The film directed by Atlee is on the path to becoming the highest-grossing film in Hindi cinema, a record that was made by SRK's 'Pathaan' earlier this year. Dutt played Khan's aide in the film and had a fun role towards the end of the film.
The ODI World Cup 2023 will commence on October 5 with India being the host country. The Indian team will face Australia in their first match of the ICC World Cup 2023. India will face Pakistan on October 14 in Ahmedabad.
10 teams will battle for the trophy in ICC World Cup 2023. They are India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, Afghanistan, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, England, and Netherlands.
India has already named their squad for ICC World Cup 2023. Rohit Sharma is the captain of the team and will lead the team for the first time in an ODI World Cup. Hardik Pandya has been named Sharma’s deputy.
