Gautam Gambhir started off the IPL 10 on the brightest note possible, securing a 10-wicket victory over Gujarat Lions with a record 184-run first wicket partnership with Chris Lynn. Despite such an astounding performance, the Delhi lad is worried that his wife might kill him once she comes to know about what he has done off-the field.

In a column written for Hindustan Times, Gambhir revealed that isn't really fond of dancing so much so that no one ever, including his wife Natasha, has ever managed to get him to shake a leg on the dance floor.

The 35-year-old, however, then admitted how he was compelled to break into a jig for one of the primary sponsor's of the Indian Premier League Season 10.

"Let me share a little story," wrote Gambhir. "I am a quintessential Punjabi who loves his butter chicken and daal. I love my Punjabi music but not those DJ kinds. But I never dance which is very un-Punjabi and akin to an Aussie cricketer who doesn't sledge! I never ever have, not even to please my wife or erstwhile female interests. Not even Mr. Khan (Shah Rukh) could make me dance at any of KKR's IPL after-match parties.

"But then there is always a first. Yes, yours truly shook his leg and that too for a sponsor's shoot. Yes, I did. I know my wife Natasha will kill me for this as I have turned down her demands, instructions, and even appeals to shake a leg with her. I didn't even dance at my brother-in-law's bachelor's party which Natasha says is 'criminal'.

Not just that, the KKR skipper further went on to explain how his team-mates are out to get him post his debut gig. While Yusuf Pathan can't stop smirking, Surya Kumar Yadav is offering him dance tips in exchange of batting lessons, while someone has indeed asked him never to dance again.
