During the debut episode of his TV show, Rohit Sharma engaged in light-hearted banter with KKR coach Abhishek Nayar. Nayar playfully suggested that Sharma should consider joining Kolkata Knight Riders, commenting on the suitability of their colors for him. In response, Sharma firmly declared his loyalty to Mumbai Indians, stating "Forever," as the audience chanted for MI.
