Mumbai, Feb 23: It was great to spot cricketer-turned-actor Salil Ankola on the screen once again, in the recent Vidyut Jammwal-starrer, The Power. The former Indian fast bowler may be 52, but he looks not a day older than mid-thirties, essaying a hunky bodyguard to one of the key characters in the Mahesh Manjrekar film.
The role may have been a short one, but it somehow defines Ankola's career - in showbiz as well as cricket. He is always been around and you can never quite ignore his towering persona.
Right now, Ankola is Chairman of the Senior Selection Committee of Mumbai Cricket Association. It is a job he was appointed to in December and he is happy to have "returned to the game after a long time".
"I have been appointed about two and a half months back now. I was appointed on 16th of December. It feels good...
