Manushi Chhillar, a former Miss World and actor, was one among several Bollywood celebrities who travelled to Qatar to take in the intense FIFA spirit. The star reveals that she had been planning to apply for FIFA for a very long time and shares her experience of finally watching the events live in the stadium.

“In fact, I wanted to go to Russia for the previous one, but I had other commitments, so I ended up missing the matches I was supposed to attend. Somehow, I just knew I would end up going this time,” says the 25-year-old.

The Samrat Prithviraj actor continues by describing how the crowded stadium full of passionate football fans gave her an entirely different feeling. “I’ve always watched football on TV and this was the very first time I watched it live.Last year, it was cricket that I watched live for the first time. The energy in football is different, and I find it much more engaging. It’s faster, and there’s a lot of aggression. The best part is you go here without baggage since India is not competing, so you’re not really supporting a team but you do have your favourite players.”

Chillar thought the matches she saw were extremely fascinating. “I saw Brazil Vs Croatia first — it got really exciting towards the end. Most of the stadium was packed with Brazillian fans, which was a different kind of experience. After that, the most interesting match was Argentina Vs Netherlands and there were these Argentinian loyal fans who were not only from the country but all over the world. And, being in Doha, when a country like Morocco won, the entire city was celebrating in their own way,” she recalls.

The actor posted multiple images of the stadium filled with football fans enjoying the game on Instagram. “Seeing everyone in the streets was such a fun experience. The last match I attended was England Vs France with the latter being last time champions. The whole vibe and energy of FIFA was very different from what I’ve ever seen before. There;s a lot more to see when you experience the game from the venue”, she beams with excitement.

Actress Mouni Roy shared candid photos of herself watching the game with husband Suraj Nambiar, Chillar, and her rumoured boyfriend Nikhil Kamath before Chillar posted the images. The actor reveals that if they had planned the trip jointly, “Of course, I know Mouni Roy and we are from the same industry. It was very sweet of her to come up to me and say hello. We did not watch the match together since we were in different sections of the stadium. But she came to me for a quick catch-up.”
