Freekick! Yoga guru Baba Ramdev's 'ball play' leaves Twitterati in splits

An exhibition match between Bollywood celebrities and Members of the Parliament was held at Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium in Delhi. But what grabbed headlines was enthusiastic Baba Ramdev having a ball (literally) with the ball.


So much so that Bollywood star Rishi Kapoor who often comes up with wittiest tweets also has a say in it. Impressed by the yoga guru's 'striking' skills, he has requested his son Ranbir to take Messi-esq Baba in his Mumbai city Football team.



Not only Chintu Kapoor, but Baba Ramdev's skills with football sent Twitterati laughing their guts out! Here are some of the funny reactions.

The team of politicians was led by Babul Supriyo, Minister of State for Heavy Industries and Public Enterprises, BJP leader Manoj Tiwari. Abhishek Bachchan was the captain for the Bollywood team, that had Ranbir Kapoor (who scored 5 goals), Dino Morea and Shabbir Ahluwalia, among others.

The exhibition match's proceeds will go to Prime Minister Narendra Modi's pet projects Beti Bachao Beti Padhao Andolan and Swachh Bharat Abhiyaan.
