Ghafoor, while speaking on Geo News programme "Geo Pakistan" revealed that he is a cricket fanatic and has played U19 cricket from Mirpur Khas district as well.

"Singing is my passion and I have a craze for cricket," he said, when asked if he sings as well.

The young man said he quit playing cricket due to lack of support and started working in a pharmaceutical company.

However, he made sure to convey his wish to feature in the PSL as a cricketer.

Ghafoor lauded Pakistan Cricket Board Chairman Ramiz Raja for successfully holding the league in Pakistan and said: "I will be available to play in PSL matches if I am asked to."

Ghafoor also showed his skills both as a singer and dancer on the show.

Ghafoor said he didn't expect that he would go viral within minutes and it was other people sitting in the stands with him who told him his video was making rounds on the internet.

"Soon, The people started taking selfies with me," said Ghafoor who was called to perform in the stadium's ground shortly after he was caught on camera.

However, he said that his parents were happy about the fame he received but they don't support him for this mode of entertainment.
