The time of Ramadan always brings back memories of home and family. I can’t help but reminisce about the old days in Vadodara when Irfan and I used to bike to the Motibaug cricket ground with just water and khajoor in our backpacks. We would break our fasts on the cricket ground and rush to go back home where our mother would be waiting for us with homemade delicacies. @irfanpathan_official bhai, since you’re away from home this Ramadan, I want to send you this #SliceOfIftar from @tropicana_slice . Can’t wait to create more memories together. #ad
