PBKS' Arshdeep Singh meets young fans in candid meeting amid ongoing IPL 2026
New Chandigarh, April 25
Punjab Kings and Team India left-arm seamer Arshdeep Singh met and interacted with a group of young children and answered every question that came his way - as a part of Punjab Kings' new social media series, 'The Real Kings'.
The children, from a local NGO, brought together with support from NamMyoho Daan Foundation and Phool Versha Foundation, met Arshdeep Singh in a setting that was equal parts candid and heartwarming, according to a release.
With no filter and no hesitation, they asked the questions fans rarely get to ask, and Arshdeep answered them all in his trademark style.
Known for his warmth off the field, Arshdeep is a cricketer who tends to leave a lasting impression on everyone he meets. The video captures that side of him well; he is honest, light-hearted and at his humorous best as he navigates questions only children would think to ask.
Arshdeep, who is seen engaging with his followers via his social media and fun reels, showed his commitment to engaging with young fans beyond the boundary.
Founded in 2020, the NamMyohoDaan Foundation has impacted thousands of students across multiple cities through structured programmes, including 'Hasti Masti Khel', a sports-led initiative that uses live match exposure and community fan zones to build confidence and teamwork in children.
'The Real Kings' will feature more Punjab Kings players in the weeks ahead, continuing the franchise's commitment to building genuine connections between their squad and the communities they represent.
Punjab Kings will look to extend their unbeaten streak in the IPL 2026 away from home as they take on the Delhi Capitals on April 25.

Arshdeep is the kind of role model we need. No arrogance, just pure warmth. I wish more cricketers did this. The kids asking questions openly is so refreshing—real connection, not just photos.
Nice initiative from PBKS. But honestly, this should be the norm, not news. Every player should give back. Still, good to see Arshdeep doing it with such ease. Hope more follow.
This is heartwarming. As someone who follows cricket from abroad, it's lovely to see players connecting with community like this. Arshdeep's humility is truly endearing. Hasti Masti Khel sounds like a great program too!
Arshdeep is a gem 💎 This is the real king, not just on the field. Loved how he answered every question without any filter. PBKS should do more such content.
These initiatives are good PR but I hope it's not just for camera. Arshdeep seems genuine though. Also, big match against DC today—hope he delivers with the ball! Come on PBKS!
I'm from Chandigarh and I've seen Arshdeep at local events. He is exactly like this off camera too—down to earth
