Ex-cricketers Chetan Chauhan and Madan Lal got together for 'Dil ka durbar', an event aimed at addressing medical matters of the heart


Ex-cricketers Chetan Chauhan and Madan Lal got together for 'Dil ka durbar', an event aimed at addressing medical matters of the heart. What it turned into, however, was an hour of hearty humour. "I lost because of a heart attack," reasoned Madan Lal, Congress candidate from Hamirpur in Himachal Pradesh. Chauhan, a BJP hopeful from East Delhi, had a different excuse. "It was the faulty EVMs," he shrugged.



Later, however, the two, along with Heart Care Foundation of India chief KK Aggarwal, started a discussion on if homosexuality and cricket blend well. "Nowadays, every player gets a single room; but in my times, I had a lot of room partners at different points in time: Kapil Dev, Syed Kirmani, Dilip Vengsarkar, Roger Binny," said Chauhan, leaving much to the audience's imagination. The next hot debate: Should one attend a homosexual wedding ceremony? Talk of talking heart-to-heart.
