Novak Djokovic is undoubtedly the top player in the sport right now. However, tennis is not the only area where he has his best hands-on. Apart from being one of the best on court, Novak is also a straightforward and humorous character off it. The Serbian leaves no chance to give a glimpse of his comical personality. He regularly takes hilarious digs at his fellow players and others related to the tennis community.

The world number 1 is currently in the Spanish capital, playing at the Mutua Madrid Open. Even though the Serb looks serious and focused during his matches, that doesn’t seem to be the case off-court. Yesterday, while interacting with tennis player turned presenter, Prakash Amritraj, Djoker left everyone in splits with his hilarity.

Djokovic gives back to Prakash Amritraj in a funny way

Djokovic was supposed to play his long-time rival Andy Murray in the third round of the Madrid Open. However, following Murray’s withdrawal announcement just prior to the match, Djokovic received a walkover, which gave him a direct entry into the quarterfinals. Following the happy moment for the Serbian, Djokovic took part in a candid talk show hosted by Prakash Amritraj.

This wasn’t the first interaction between Prakash and Novak. The two had interacted with each other on a number of occasions previously as well. Looking at those interactions, it wouldn’t be wrong to say that the two share a strong bond with each other. A reflection of the same was seen yesterday.

During the interview, the 38-YO tried taking a light dig at Novak saying that he should think of getting a haircut and get cleaned up after the interview. Hearing the suggestion, Djokovic took no time to pull up his socks to polish his comical skills. Replying to Prakash, Novak said, “Yes! So, the idea was to get a haircut before I come and sit here with you because I wanted to somewhat come closer to your looks. But then I realized that’s not possible. So, I just dealt with my destiny and reality to be the second-best looking on this table.”

The clip in no time gained momentum with the tennis community going gaga over Novak’s amusing side.
