Gavaskar also featured in another Marathi movie 'Zakol' before making a guest appearance in Naseeruddin Shah's 1988 Hindi comedy 'Malamaal'. We know Sunil Gavaskar, the Little Master, for those impeccable straight drives which would become a big headache for pace bowlers. But Gawaskar was not just a star on the field. He also made his appearance on the big screen, alongside playing for the Indian cricket team. The former Indian opener starred in a Marathi movie Savli Premachi.
