An Urge to All to Pray for Vinod Kambli

His brother has also urged everyone to pray for the fast recovery of Vinod Kambli. Sharing his thoughts, Virendra said, “He underwent rehab for 10 days.

He still slurs in his speech, but he is getting better. I just want to tell people who pray for him, so that he gets better. He needs your love and support”.
