'Chal chal ave' - Fans react to Prithvi Shaw's claim of comparing himself with fictional character of popular Indian drama

Prithvi Shaw Says His Life Feels Like Jethalal's

When Prithvi Shaw started playing for India, people thought he would become the next Sachin Tendulkar. He made a great Test debut in 2018 against the West Indies, and fans were excited about his future.

But things didn’t go smoothly. After some bad performances, he was dropped from the team. He also had personal problems and was removed from the Mumbai team too.

Shaw played for Delhi Capitals in the IPL for a few years, but before the last big auction, the team let him go. Sadly, no one picked him, and Shaw later said that he even went into depression. In a recent interview, Shaw said his life feels like Jethalal, a character from the TV show Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah. Jethalal is always caught in problems whether it’s with his dad or his neighbours, trouble keeps following him.

Shaw feels the same. “Even when I try to live peacefully, something always goes wrong,” he said. In 2019, Shaw was banned for 8 months after a banned substance was found in his body. He said it came from a regular cough syrup, but the rules were strict, and he missed many matches.

Then in 2023, he got into a fight at a nightclub in Mumbai. A social media influencer, Sapna Gill, accused him of hitting her after he refused to take a selfie. Her group even attacked Shaw’s car with a bat. The case went to the police and spread all over the news. Even with all this, Shaw is trying to make a comeback. He still believes in himself and hopes things will get better.
