Former Indian opener Virender Sehwag was very active in showing his support for the Indian athletes during the recently concluded Rio Olympics. His gesture won the hearts of every fan and athletes. And Sakshi Malik, the wrestler who won a bronze medal in the games, took to Twitter to express her desire of meeting with the swashbuckling opener.
The Nawab of Najafgarh did not take long to fulfill her wish and invited her to his place the very next day. As expected Sehwag took to Twitter to share the great news with his followers. As usual the post had its perfect dose of Sehwag’s humour. But it was great to see him obliging to Malik’s request so quickly.
Great meeting @SakshiMalik .She did not wrestle,and so I comfortably congratulated her for making the country proud. pic.twitter.com/n4JQBGxpVw

Before the meeting there was a hilarious incident that took place on Twitter. At first the wrestler asked Sehwag for his time to meet him in a very formal manner.
@virendersehwag Good morning sir , I want to meet u , please tell me time, when u feel convenient,today or tomorrow,

And the Twitter king as usual replied to her in his trademark style. Sehwag immediately agreed to meet her but with a condition.
Sure ,will let you know the time. Hope you won't start wrestling with me, Sakshi ☺ https://t.co/XTau8YTnEd

And so when Sehwag posted the photo of her meeting with Malik, he mentioned that the wrestle did not fight with him and he comfortably congratulated her for making the nation proud.
