    'Rs 23 Crore Or 20 Lakh, My Efforts Remains Constant', KKR's Venkatesh On Handling Hefty Price Tag Baggage

    Kolkata Knight Riders: Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) vice-captain Venkatesh Iyer admitted that indeed pressure comes with the hefty price tag and said the financial aspect is beyond his control, but his performance on the field is something he can influence. He added that regardless of whether he is paid Rs 23 crore or Rs 20 lakh, his efforts in contributing to the team remain constant.

    KKR released Venkatesh after their IPL-winning run last year but splurged a jaw-dropping Rs 23.75 crores to bring back the all-rounder into their fold, winning a fierce bidding war at the mega auction last year.

    "To be honest, I’m not ignoring it completely - I’m a practical person. I know there’s pressure, and there’s a lot of talk around the price and all those things. But at the same time, that’s not in my control. What is in my control is the effort I put in to help the team win, and that remains constant - whether I'm paid Rs 23 crore or Rs 20 lakh.
