Indian tennis great Leander Paes and Mahesh Bhupathi are set to reunite for a new web series, which will narrate interesting stories and share the anecdotes from the duo’s journey to stardom.
Paes and Bhupathi will be seen in unique storytelling of their journey and relationship together, created by award-winning husband-wife director duo of Ashwiny Iyer Tiwari and Nitesh Tiwari, PTI reported.
Paes and Bhupathi were the first Indian pair to win at the Wimbledon in 1999. The speculation about their reunion started after Paes on Sunday posted a picture and wrote a note on Twitter on the 22nd anniversary of their first Wimbledon men’s doubles title.
“As two young boys, all we dreamt of was making our country proud! Tennis ball Seedling Trophy @Maheshbhupathi #LeeHesh,” Paes had tweeted, to which Bhipathi replied: “Hmmm… That was special!! Do you think it’s time to write another chapter? @Leander #LeeHesh,” Paes opined.
The pair, nicknamed the ‘Indian Express’, played together from 1994 to 2006 before reuniting for a second stint from 2008 to 2011.
They also had a public fallout but have to put that behind them now.
