NEW DELHI: Indian cricketer
Nitish Rana recently shared which actor he would like to see portray him in a biopic. The
Rajasthan Royals player, who earlier represented Kolkata Knight Riders in the Indian Premier League (
IPL), didn’t hesitate before naming actor
Jaideep Ahlawat.
“I think Jaideep Ahlawat, because woh bhi Jaat hain, main bhi Jaat hoon,” he said, adding, “In case biopic mein Haryanvi bolni pade toh woh thodi better bol payenge,” Rana said at an event.

“I like wearing street style more. SRK (
Shah Rukh Khan) sir likes to wear elegant clothes more. The only thing I copied from him is this ponytail, which I copied from him after Pathaan had released,” he said with a grin, gesturing towards his hair.
Rana’s fashion sense has drawn attention over the years, with his casual yet bold outfits and distinct accessories making him one of the standout style icons among the new generation of Indian athletes.

In T20Is, he has featured in 2 matches, scoring 15 runs at a strike rate of 55.56.
His most significant contributions have come in the IPL, where he has played 118 matches, amassing 2,853 runs at an average of 27.70 and a strike rate of 136.77. His IPL stats include 9 half-centuries, 261 fours, and 141 sixes.
