"Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa" and sports are closely connected and the cricketer is taking this relationship forward.
"I am completely zero when it comes to dancing. What is dance? It is just when you are in a good mood, you just start jiving to a rhythm... you start moving and your body starts shaking. That is what it is," he told in an interview.
He is expected to make his appearance this weekend.
So far quite a few sportsmen have taken to the "Jhalak..." stage.
In the first season, cricketer Ajay Jadeja grooved on the stage, followed by hockey player and coach Mir Ranjan Negi in the second season.
Senior cricketer Mohinder Amarnath shook a leg in the third season, and footballer Baichung Bhutia won the third season.
Boxer Akhil Kumar was part of the fourth season, while Sri Lankan cricket skipper Sanath Jayasuriya was seen in the last season of the show.
