Breakfast with Champions – Season 1
Episodes
Shoaib Akhtar
"We've had some crazy laughs during the IPL and I can tell you that there's never a dull moment with Shoaib. He has no filter. What's on his mind is on his lips, almost instantly. He wakes up half way through the episode, but even half asleep, he is more entertaining than most people fully awake!" - GK
Zaheer Khan
"Zak has a habit of making you work when you're his guest. So when he offered to cook me breakfast, I was pleasantly surprised and mildly suspicious. Ajit missed the brekkie, probably because he didn't want a bucket of desi ghee injected into his veins!" - GK
Ajinkya Rahane
"I've always maintained that he's a no-fuss sportsman, and a no-fuss person. Hard working, quiet and polite to a fault. I took him to one of my favourite breakfast spots in the city, and they decided to serve him an omelette as big as my head." - GK
Danny Morrison
"I love Danny. There is no other way to put it. Danny means laughter, fun and high octane madness. Indoor spaces can't contain his energy, in fact very few outdoor spaces can either. I thought Chandni Chowk and Parathe Wali Galli could be a match! So that's where I took him. You see, Danny is always up for giving things a shot, including a massage from some very... dodgy fingers." - GK
Bishan Singh Bedi
"He's one of the most large hearted people I've met. A chat with him is full of laughs and lovely observations. He's my dear friend's father but he insists I call him Bish. I love Bish, as much as Bish loves his flock of dogs. Not only did I leave their house with a great episode, I also left with some home made mango pickle courtesy Mrs Bedi. That's the kind of family they are. Hospitable, generous and loving. The pickle is long gone, but the episode is for us to share." - GK
Dwayne Bravo
"Give 'DJ' a stage and he's a star. He's a cricketer and an entertainer. He sings, dances and soaks up high pressure situations like a sponge. But how do you ruffle a person who doesn't get ruffled? Sometimes the answer is as simple as vegetarian food. That's what I did to my buddy, Dwayne Bravo. I took him to my favourite Mumbai institution, Swati Snacks, for breakfast. Bad idea? Find out for yourself!" - GK
