Indian pacer Jasprit Bumrah has revealed a unique habit for which his teammates often make fun of him.
Jasprit Bumrah is currently on a break from cricket to manage his workload. However, he recently made headlines for an entirely different reason.
Bumrah attended the launch event for 'Ralph Lauren Fragrances' new perfume, 'Polo 67', at Palladium Mall in Mumbai. He is also the brand's India ambassador.
The event was also attended by other celebrities like Manav Chhabra and Varun Sood. It was here, during an interview, that Bumrah revealed his secret love for perfumes.
When asked whether he prioritizes luxury or fragrance when choosing a perfume, he gave an interesting reply.
"I take perfumes very seriously and stay concentrated while buying them. My teammates also make fun of me for this, but I really like it."
Bumrah further explained that he inspects any perfume in-depth before purchasing it.
He ensures that the fragrance is long-lasting and doesn't just fade away in the air. It is this meticulous nature that leads to friendly teasing from his teammates.
Bumrah also shared a practical reason behind this habit. He stated that as an athlete, perfume is very important for him.
He explained, "We practice hard for hours at the cricket stadium and on the field, which leads to a lot of sweating and body odor."
Therefore, he deeply feels and enjoys the fragrance of each perfume, ensuring he feels fresh at all times.
The 'Polo 67 Pop-up' event will now be held from June 6 to 12, 2026, at Oberoi Mall in Mumbai, where fans can experience free samples.
Known for his lethal yorkers on the field, this fragrant and stylish side of Bumrah is being well-received by fans. His revelation is being widely discussed on social media, showing that fans are deeply interested in the off-field lives of their favorite stars.
