India's badminton stars Kidambi Srikanth and Ashwini Ponnappa played a prank on some kids at a badminton academy in Secunderabad.

The stars who are taking part in the Premier Badminton League (PBL) currently turned tricksters disguised as old people recently. They disguised themselves as an old couple and went to the Garuda Badminton Academy and pleaded for a few minutes of playtime with the kids training there.

Kidambi Srikanth, Ashwini Ponnappa proved that they are not only ace badminton players but also brilliant actors. When they were half-heartedly allowed five minutes of playing time the two seemed to annoy the kids by showing some poor badminton skills. They also pretended to have backache.

They unleashed their true self to a loud cheer from everyone watching at the academy. The kids later ran towards Srikanth and Ponnappa as they removed their mask to reveal who they were, asking for autographs.

Ashwini Ponappa is playing for Hyderabad Warriors in the PBL season four while Kidambi Srikanth represents Bengaluru Raptors.
