Indian rugby star combines Bollywood with egg chasing
Rahul Bose may not be a household name in most parts of the world, but in India he's a star of epic proportions. Imagine if Daniel Craig played rugby for the country as well as being James Bond - that's what Rahul is - both an actor and international rugby player. Well, now according to Rediff News, Rahul has combined his rugby skills with his acting malarky.
The actor, who has just finished his four-week film shooting of "Daastan" in Kashmir, stayed in the region to coach a group of Kashmiri boys how to play rugger.
"Sharing my experience on the field with the boys has been a great joy," the actor said (presumably in a Lawrence Olivier "lovey" style accent. "Such things can only happen through good luck."
However, their luck quickly ran out when the film's shooting / rugby training came to an abrupt end due to a snowstorm last week, when they all had to be rescued. Bless.
