Watch: Harleen Deol's sneaky complaint to PM Narendra Modi for being scolded
When the Indian Women's National team were called over to the PM's residence for a celebration session on their World Cup triumph, Shri Narendra Modi, the honourable Prime Minister of India, asked a tricky question to the cricketers.
He asked whether there is someone who often lightens the mood of the Indian dressing room, and Jemimah Rodrigues pointed out Harleen Deol as such a character in the team. The cricketer also admitted to keeping everyone cheerful around her.
Harleen Deol said, "Every team needs someone to lighten up tense moments, and I take it upon myself to reach out to everyone to keep the atmosphere cheerful whenever I am free and have absolutely nothing to do. I like to keep people happy around me."
She further complained to the PM, saying that some officials scoelded her at his residence. Watch here:

PM Modi blushes over 'glowing skin' remark from Women's cricketer
After having answered the PM's question, she went on to pose a strange question in front of the public figure. Harleen Deol was in a spirit of laughter and cheer as she asked the Prime Minister about his skincare routine, claiming that he glows a lot.
For a moment, the veteran public figure felt shy over such a query, but Sneh Rana, another teammate of Deol, among the entire giggling squad, helped Modiji by saying that it is the love of millions that brings the glow to his face.
Even the Prime Minister said that, though he has never really thought about it, it is the immense love and affection of millions of people. He also felt overwhelmed by such goodwill, which had a profound impact after 25 years in public service.
The Indian Women's Team brought home the World Cup after an exile of 14 years
The Indian Women's National team played their third final in the history of Women's World Cups in the longer format of white-ball cricket. They played the World Cup back in 2005 and 2017 before this and finished as the runners-up on both occasions.
Playing on home soil, the Indians looked relentless with Smriti Mandhana, Pratika Rawal, Deepti Sharma, Jemimah Rodrigues, Harmanpreet Kaur, and Harleen Deol all contributing significantly to their victorious campaign.
The Women cricketers ended the 14-year-long desire of Indian cricket fans to witness their team lift a World Cup. The Men's team won the World Cup back in 2011 and finished as runners-up in the 2023 home World Cup.
