A screengrab from TV9 Bharatvarsh showing Kareena Kapoor Khan with Lionel Messi
Messi mania reached Mumbai's shores on Saturday and none of his fans could get enough, not even those from the realm of Bollywood. Superstar actor Kareena Kapoor Khan was one of the lucky ones, who got a chance of meeting the Argentine face to face along with her two kids, Taimur (eight years) and Jehangir (four years).
Kareena, dressed in a chic khaki-coloured outfit, posed for the pic alongside Messi, with her sons wearing replicas of Messi's iconic No. 10 Argentina jersey. They also met with ex-Uruguay and Barcelona star Luis Suarez, and Messi's World Cup-winning teammate Rodrigo de Paul.
The 45-year-old actor wasn't the only Bollywood star at Wankhede Stadium. The likes of Ajay Devgn and Tiger Shroff also had a chance to meet Messi on Wankhede's hallowed turf.
Messi's visit to Mumbai is the third leg of the âGOAT Tour,' which began on Saturday at Kolkata, before moving to Hyderabad on the same day. The ex-Barcelona star will travel to New Delhi on Monday for the final leg of his event in India.
