Abhishek Bachchan is one happy man. The actor led an all-star football team in Dubai last week, where they played a match for charity against Emirates United in the Celebrity Football Cup 2022. So touched is the Guru star by the dedication of his All Stars Football Club teammates that he has now shared a special post praising the “boys”. In an Instagram video, Abhishek has shared a glimpse of their journey from Mumbai to Dubai, including several shots of Abhishek being the perfect mentor and captain as he encourages his players on the field. One of the several lovely moments that caught our eye is an adorable clip of Ranbir Kapoor and Abhishek grinning for the camera in their team jerseys.
Sharing the video, Abhishek Bachchan said, “Last weekend All Stars Football Club flew to Dubai to play a match for charity. My love and regard for this bunch grow stronger every day. Their dedication, fighting spirit, camaraderie and immensely large hearts... Thank you, boys.” He added, “A special thanks to my brother Bunty S Walia and his team at GS Sports for always making all this possible and doing it seamlessly and so well.”

The official page of All Stars Football Club shared a photo recently of the team in Dubai. The post also has glimpses of Abhishek Bachchan, Ranbir Kapoor and Kartik Aaryan in action before and during the match. The caption said, “What a game day in Dubai looks like.”
A few days ago Ranbir Kapoor made headlines when he winked at fans while he was making his way to the field, behind his captain Abhishek Bachchan. As one of his fans screamed, "Ranbir, I love you," the actor turned around and winked, giving rise to resounding cheers.
On the work front, Abhishek Bachchan was last seen in Dasvi. Ranbir Kapoor, meanwhile, will be seen in Brahmastra with his wife, actress Alia Bhatt.
