Hrithik joins the ISL bandwagon with FC Pune City's co-ownership

Mumbai, Oct 13 (IBNS) Indian Super League (ISL) just got fancier with Bollywood star Hrithik Roshan joining hands with good friend Rajesh Wadhawan as a co-owner of FC Pune City last Thursday.

FC Pune City is one of the eight franchises that are all set to compete in the football championship that kicked off on Sunday.

The actor said, "I believe in sport. I feel sport teaches a lot of things like discipline, team work, character. It takes a lot of courage to go out on the ground and perform. When you talk about football, it is one game that is truly a man's sport, really tough. I am really happy that I got a chance to get associated with the ISL. Whatever I do I always think about my kids and what can empower them in the future and this is one such thing."
