MUMBAI: Karan Wahi, beloved actor, anchor, and former cricketer, is set to take centre stage at Lord’s Cricket Ground on July 23, as he hosts Shikhar Dhawan’s flagship event, “Beyond the Boundaries.”
The announcement has sparked buzz across both the entertainment and sports worlds, not just because of the grandeur of the venue or the star power involved, but because of the personal connection Wahi shares with Dhawan.

And who better to lead this celebration than someone who knows both the man and the game?
Wahi, known for his effortless charm on shows like Indian Idol, Nach Baliye, and India’s Next Superstars, is expected to bring a mix of nostalgia, wit, and warmth to the proceedings. His deep understanding of cricket combined with his polished stage presence makes him the ideal bridge between Dhawan’s legacy and the audience that will gather at the home of cricket.
The evening will feature exclusive storytelling moments, candid interactions, and a reflection on Dhawan’s career milestones, humanitarian efforts, and future vision. But much of the tone, energy, and emotional resonance of the night will be steered by Wahi making this hosting assignment one of the most anticipated moments of his career.
