It seems like Ranveer Singh is having a blast at an NBA event with all of his celebrity pals. The Bollywood star watched the championship game of the NBA Abu Dhabi Games 2022 on Saturday night at the Etihad Arena. During the game, he was seen chatting it up with Steve Harvey, a popular US TV personality and comedian.
The NBA’s official Twitter account shared a clip of the three stars joking with one another. While Shaq was on something that looked to be a video chat, the footage had an amusing cameo by Ranveer Singh, who was able to make the locals in Abu Dhabi laugh with some improvised Arabic. They simply tagged the photo with the word “Squad” at the request of the basketball league.
