Ace South African pacer Kagiso Rabada showcased his hold on the Hindi language and also showed the world how not to impress your desi girlfriend's parents in a funny video shared by RJ Karishma on Instagram.
The fiery pacer has played for two north Indian-based teams in IPL- Delhi Capitals and Punjab Kings and has picked up some Hindi during his time with the Indian players in both franchises.
Rabada, who is with the South African team for the T20 World Cup, featured in Indian Radio Jockey RJ Karishma's video 'how not to impress desi girlfriend's parents'. The video shows Karishma first giving him lines for mother-in-law, then the father-in-law.

The video starts with Rabada saying 'Namaste' in Hindi, following which he says, "East or west, my saas is best (East or west my mother-in-law is best)." The star pacer then says "Me aapke parivar ko paake dhaniya ho gya hu (I'm blessed to be part of your family)," however, instead of 'Dhanya' he said 'Dhaniya'.
The funniest part of the video comes when Rabada utters 'Namaste Suar Ji', which means a pig instead of 'Namaste Sasur Ji (Father-in-Law)'.
Karishma then corrects him and the fast bowler asks to be forgiven but makes a mistake in that as well. Rabada apologizes by saying, "Sorry me chumma chahta hu (Sorry I'd like to apologise)," instead of saying 'kshama.'
The video has gone viral on social media with many reactions to this.
