Former India cricketer and Yuvraj Singh's father, Yograj Singh has rubbished reports claiming that he is done with life and wants to die. He was furious at the people for posting articles claiming things that he never meant and stated that he has been completely misunderstood. In an exclusive chat with Sports Tak, Yograj said that he is "very much alive".
"I don't know who has written that news, but I just want to make one thing clear that I am like a lion and I am very much alive," Yograj told Sports Tak.
He further revealed that his son, Yuvraj sends him INR 50,000 every month and claimed that he will leave everything and come to his side if he asks him to do so. He further remarked that his family supports and loves him a lot.
"Support is very important in life. My family loves me and supports me very well. Yuvraj sends me 50,00 rupees every month and will leave everything and come to my side if I tell him to," he added.
Yograj had opened up on being lonely
Meanwhile, Yograj had opened up on his battle with loneliness and had revealed that he sits alone in his house every evening, relying on strangers for food. He had also expressed his love for his family and had also said that he is very thankful to God for giving him so much in life.
"I sit alone in the evening, have no one at home. I rely on strangers for food, sometimes one person, sometimes the other. I don’t bother anyone though. Someone or the others gets food for me if I am hungry. I kept house help and cooks, they served and went away," Yograj said in an interview for Vintage Studio.
“I love my mother, kids, daughter-in-law, grandchildren, everyone in the family. But, I don’t ask for anything. I am ready to die. My life is completed, whenever God wants, he can take me with him. I am so thankful to God, I pray and he keeps giving,” he further added.
Yograj continues to flourish as a coach
Though he wasn't able to reach the highs that he would have liked as a player, Yograj has become a well-respected coach and has nurtured a lot of emerging talents.
