Suniel
Shetty
has
just
returned
from
Chandigarh
after
being
appointed
the
brand
ambassador
for
hockey....to
hear
some
good
news.
"It's
really
heartening
to
hear
Sanju
is
being
released
on
interim
bail.
What
do
I
say?
It's
an
answer
to
all
the
prayers
that
people
have
sent
up
for
him.
It's
the
junta's
goodwill
that
has
kept
him
going.
It's
Sanju
who
has
brought
the
concept
of
Gandhi-giri
to
people.
And
I
believe
he
truly
believes
in
peace.
Sanju
is
totally
converted."
Suniel
is
currently
confused
about
being
appointed
the
brand
ambassador
for
hockey.
"It
was
an
awesome
experience
to
be
given
the
responsibility
to
revive
the
game.
I
may
be
a
right
choice.
But
after
seeing
Chak
De
I
think
Shah
Rukh
Khan
is
a
much
better
choice
for
representing
hockey
for
the
country.
I
saw
the
film
twice.
And
I'm
completely
bowled
over
by
Shah
Rukh's
performance.
He
could
play
anything.
But
he
chooses
to
play
this
serious
troubled
hockey
coach.
I
think
Shah
Rukh
has
his
stardom
for
a
good
50
years
more.
Chak
De
proves
it."
Suniel
feels
he's
the
wrong
choice
to
endorse
hockey.
"I
seriously
want
them
to
reconsider
my
appointment.
I
mean,
there
I
was
being
appointed
brand
ambassador
for
the
game
while
Shah
Rukh
is
bringing
hockey
back
into
favour
like
nobody's
business."
