'Bhangra' would be more exciting: Uddhav Thackeray

Mumbai, Apr 29 (UNI) Shiv Sena executive president Uddhav Thackeray has said ''bhangra'' during cricket matches would be more exciting.

Mr Thackeray's views have come in the wake of the controversy surrounding cheer-leaders.

In an informal talk with reporters here yesterday, Mr Thackeray, said Union Agriculture Minister Sharad Pawar, who also heads the BCCI, should take an equal interest in farmers' issues as he does in cricket.

To a question, Mr Thackeray said his party has always been opposed to Pakistani players playing here in the country.

On the infighting within BJP, the Shiv Sena's ally, Mr Thackeray said,''The party is recovering and I have personally spoken to both Gopinath Munde and Nitin Gadkari.'' ''Mr Munde had met Shiv Sena chief Bal Thackeray before and after going to Delhi and followed his guidance,'' Uddhav Thackeray said on Mr Munde's recent unhappy reaction against his party, the BJP.
