Shikhar Dhawan is known for his tall sixes which often give nightmares to the bowlers. Now, the right-handed opening batsman has revealed a different side of himself to the world. Not many people knew that Shikhar even has an ear for music and is training to play the flute.

The cricketer shared a video of himself playing the flute. He captioned the video, “Hi guys. Wanted to share something that's very dear to my heart n is different side to me. For last 3 yrs I've been learning the flute (my fav instrument). I've had the privilege of taking lessons with my Guru Venugopal Ji. I still have a long way to go but I'm glad I've started.”

As of now, Shikhar Dhawan is enjoying the offseason with his family and keep posting pictures with them.
