Veteran South African and Delhi Capitals cricketer Faf du Plessis agreed to an interesting request from a fan following their IPL 2025 match against the Punjab Kings on May 24, Saturday. With the fan wanting for du Plessis and Punjab Kings' co-owner Preity Zinta in a sports drama or Royal Romance, the Proteas batter said they should make it happen.

Although the Capitals were defeated by the Mumbai Indians, they managed to upstage the PBKS on Saturday by chasing down a target of 207.

"Someone please cast @faf1307 and @realpreityzinta in a movie already He’s got the action-hero vibe. She’s aging like fine wine. Put them in a sports drama or a royal romance — don’t waste this visual perfection!"
The 40-year-old replied to it by saying:
"Make it happen."
