given
to

Kapoor

Rahul
opened
up
about
Suniel
Shetty
and
his
love
for
cricket.
According
to
the
cricketer,
the
senior
actor
is
'borderline-obsessed'
with
the
sport.
"He's
not
just
a
fan.
He
understands
the
game
really
well.
He
is
borderline
obsessed," said
KL
Rahul
who
spoke
fondly
about
his
rumoured
girlfriend's
father.
Interestingly,
the
cricketer
also
revealed
that
he
has
had
his
share
of
arguments
with
Suniel
Shetty
over
cricket.
"We
do
have
some
conversations,
arguments
sometimes,
disagreements
too.
He
talks
sense
because
he
understands
the
game.
He
tells
me,
'You
are
not
fit
enough.
You
are
getting
injured.
There's
a
reason
for
that.
You
are
not
eating
healthy.' He's
all
about
the
healthy
lifestyle,
training,"
revealed
Rahul.
In
the
interview,
the
cricketer
also
opened
up
about
how
Suneil
Shetty
inspires
him
to
stay
fit
and
healthy.
"You
look
at
him
at
60-61.
He's
as
fit
as
anybody
else.
He
can
do
it
at
60,
I
don't
see
why
I
can't
do
it.
I
can't
find
any
reason.
Rather
I
shouldn't
find
any
reason,"
stated
KL
Rahul.
To
the
unversed,
KL
Rahul
and
Athiya
Shetty
are
said
to
be
in
a
serious
relationship
for
the
last
couple
of
years.
Even
though
both
the
cricketer
and
actress
have
not
admitted
to
their
relationship
so
far,
their
social
media
PDA
proves
that
they
are
a
couple.
With
KL

Suneil
Shetty

Breakfast
With
Champions,
it
is
confirmed
that
he
is
indeed
serious
about
Athiya,
