Tharoor shares Ranatunga's post-surgery transformation photo

Shashi Tharoor, an Indian politician, recently posted a photo of his friend Arjuna Ranatunga, a former Sri Lankan cricket captain, on social media.

The photo showed Ranatunga's significant weight loss after undergoing bariatric surgery.

Fans were surprised because Ranatunga looked very different from his previous, more robust appearance.

Tharoor shared that Ranatunga now plays charity matches and can bat for three hours comfortably, which was a challenge for him during his playing days.

Ranatunga is known for his contributions to Sri Lankan cricket and his role in leading the team to victory in the 1996 World Cup.

Both Tharoor and Ranatunga have moved into public life after their original careers, with Tharoor serving as a politician and Ranatunga holding various ministerial positions in Sri Lanka.
