Shreyas Iyer is a very good batter and a brilliant captain as well, but do you know that he performs magic, too! Yes, the Indian cricketer, fondly nicknamed 'Sarpanch' by his followers, stunned a magician named Chira,g who had initially performed a magic trick on him by making a card disappear. This all took place when Shreyas Iyer and his sister were out for a meal at The Bombay Cartel, a very popular restaurant cum bar located in Juhu. The video of the fun magic session and Shreyas Iyer's stunning magic skill at the end was shared by the Indian cricketer's sister, Shresta Iyer, on Instagram on August 21. What Cost Shreyas Iyer His Place in Team India's Squad for Asia Cup 2025? Here Are Some Possible Reasons.
The video opens with the magician approaching Shreyas Iyer as he is seated at a table with his sister around. The magician, who was carrying a pack of cards, introduced himself as Chirag, an illusionist and asked Shreyas Iyer to draw a card and sign his autograph on the same. Shreyas Iyer obliged and it is important to note that his phone was kept right in front of him. The magician went ahead with his magic trick and made the card disappear on the table while going nowhere close to the place where his phone was kept.
Shreyas Iyer was amazed by the trick and later, the magician Chirag revealed that the card was inside Shreyas Iyer's phone and was being seen on the screen. He then made the card, which had Shreyas Iyer's autograph, appear much to the joy of those present at the venue. What happened next was even more surprising. When he asked if he could have the autographed card back, Shreyas Iyer replied, "What autograph?" and just by simply flicking the card, made his signature disappear from the same!
