Bollywood’s connection with cricket has an age-old history. Top names from the respective fields have crossed several paths over the years, some even resulting in successful unions. Did you know one leading lady of the 90s once confessed her love for one of the star cricketers from the Indian cricket team? We are talking about dhak-dhak girl Madhuri Dixit, who was reportedly in love with Sunil Gavaskar. She revealed in a 1992 interview that she was “mad” for the former batsman.
