Spain’s 2010 World Cup winning left-back Joan Capdevila isn’t one to shy away from a challenge. But the footballer, who will be seen playing in the Indian Super League for the John Abraham co-owned NorthEast United Football Club, may have found one that even he cannot overcome: Bollywood.

Or more specifically, dancing in a Bollywood movie. When Abraham joked that Capdevila could play a role in his upcoming movie, 1911 at a press conference recently, the Spaniard gamely said yes but went on to add, “No dancing.” Guess some things are best left to the professionals.
