Recently, the 'Aiyaary' actor used social media to share how this game helped shape the person he is today. Sid revealed that he played Rugby in college, which helped him learn brotherhood, discipline, and respect.

Never thought the bruises, mud, and early morning practices would shape me the way they did. Rugby taught me brotherhood, pushing limits, discipline, staying grounded, and showing respect, even to the guy who just tackled you hard."

"I'm extremely happy and proud to share that my club, Delhi Hurricanes, is contributing so many players and coaches to the first-ever Indian Rugby League. To see these boys out there, representing not just the club but the sport we love, it's truly inspiring.
