Pravin Tambe, who made his IPL debut at the age of 41, becoming the league’s oldest player, was taken aback when a production firm approached him about making a film about his life. Tambe questioned the production house, stating that he is neither Tendulkar, Dhoni, or Kohli, so why are they making a film about him?
“I’m not Tendulkar, Dhoni, or Kohli, so why are they making a movie about me?” Tambe queried, according to the Indian Express. “At first, I said no because I didn’t show any interest, but they phoned me again and asked me to meet with them. They wanted to portray Tambe’s journey, who is 41 years old. One phrase that stood out to me was when they said, “People knew you played at the age of 41, but people should know what you have done in the last 20 years.

The film, which stars Bollywood actor Shreyas Talpade and was released just a few days ago, is swiftly gaining popularity among fans. The film’s title, ‘Kaun Praveen Tambe,’ is a remark on those who overlook underdog stories. It tells Tambe’s narrative from his childhood in the Mulund Chawls to his eventual realization of his dream of playing for the Mumbai Ranji Trophy team after years of effort.
Tambe was 41 years old when he made his IPL debut for Rajasthan Royals in 2013. He was discovered by RR’s scouts, and then a phone call from Rahul Dravid transformed his life. After that, he played for numerous franchises, including Sunrisers Hyderabad and the T10 league. Tambe made his Ranji Trophy debut in 2013 for the Mumbai side.
