When Ashish Nehra said Hardik Pandya ‘change Paro daily’; Harbhajan Singh got a laugh too; watch

In a candid and funny moment that once took the cricket internet by storm, former India pacer Ashish Nehra didn’t hold back when he playfully talked about Hardik Pandya’s off-field lifestyle.

Jokingly, Nehra said he had heard that the all-rounder is ‘changing Paro daily’, a light-hearted reference that set social media abuzz after the clip was shared on X.

The comment came during a casual chat in a cricketing setting where ex-players were bantering about life beyond the boundary ropes. 

Nehra’s tongue-in-cheek remark about Pandya had fellow cricketers and fans in splits, with many taking it as good-natured ribbing rather than anything serious.

At one point, veteran off-spinner Harbhajan Singh was asked about the exchange and couldn’t help but laugh at the fun atmosphere, adding his own humourous take on the team’s camaraderie. 

The interaction highlighted the softer side of retired players, one where cricketing legends feel free to jest about their peers in a way that fans absolutely love.

Netizens were quick to react. Many praised the playful vibe, with one commenter joking, “Nehra ji just keeps the fun alive!” Others tagged it as “pure banter between legends,” while a few playfully suggested that ominous off-field gossip beats post-match analysis any day.

While Ashish Nehra and Hardik Pandya share a deep professional respect from their time together in the IPL and India colours, moments like these remind fans why cricket isn’t just about stats, it’s also about personality, humour, and the human side of sport.
