After India won the final, Aaryavir Sehwag had a video chat with his father, former India opener and captain Virender Sehwag. Recalling his anxiety during India's 2026 Under-19 Asia Cup final, Aaryavir Sehwag claimed that as the tension increased, he kept screaming "Sita Ram, Sita Ram." Following India's victory in the competition, Virender posted a video of their chat on social media.
"Papa, I was so nervous… I was just chanting, 'Sita Ram, Sita Ram!'" Aaryavir told his father as he recalled the tense moments of the match.
"From winning Player of the Tournament to recalling those nail-biting final moments, a very special conversation with beta @aaryavirsehwag. Some moments are bigger than awards, runs, and trophies. These are the memories a father will cherish forever. May you always keep your feet firmly on the ground and touch the skies with your hardwork and talent," Sehwag shared the video with this caption.
