It\u2019s a small place and everyone is Football crazy. But taking up Football as a career is entirely different from playing the sport! In that sense, Malsawmtluanga is our Godfather,\u201d Dika clarifies.\n<\/p>\n<p>This time, Mama joins in. \u201cThere\u2019s always that perception that playing is waste of time. Studies, most feel, is much better. I don\u2019t want to go into any debate. All I want to say is that both are different and can earn you a living,\u201d the Godfather prophesies.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut when I first started to play and used to be flooded by questions back in Mizoram about the scenario of Mizo Players moving to Clubs to play the sport, I never believed that there would be such an influx of Mizo Footballers at the National level,\u201d Malsawmtluanga prompts.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cJerry Zirsanga has donned the Senior India Colours, so have Jeje Lalpekhlua and Dika. I expect some more from the junior age-group Teams to follow suit.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>For the record, the India U-19 National Team, coached by Colm Joseph Toal, who played in the AFC U-19 Championship in October boasted of five Mizo Players in the squad of 23. The supply-line stays ready to take over.<\/p>\n<p>And then the Godfather prefers to hoodwink his follower. \u201cDo you know that Lalrindika and Jeje has a huge female fan following back home in Mizoram? They are local heartthrobs.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Lalrindika, who stays proud of his unbeaten record in wrestling bouts with all his Teammates, tries to catch Malsawmtluanga unaware. And then, both burst out again.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFootball in Mizoram is different. At a Football Match, you will find a lot of ladies thronging the galleries,\u201d Mama informs. \u201cUnless you have the fairer sex getting involved, the popularity can never grow.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere are also a lot number of advertisements involving Dika and Jeje,\u201d Mama states.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe didn\u2019t mention his own name,\u201d Dika pinches Mama.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYeah, we endorse a lot many local brands,\u201d Dika informs.<\/p>\n<p>Even as Dika\u2019s scorcher against Mohun Bagan has gone viral on the internet, we discover the softer side of him, the concern for community development. \u201cOnce Dika paid Rs. 25000 for the U-19 boys to but their kits,\u201d Mama pronounces.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWell it\u2019s not only me. We try to help our society which has given so much to us,\u201d Dika takes over. Once there was a landslide in our region where 11 people had died. We decided to play a Charity Match and collected Rs. one lakh which was distributed. Godfather, Jeje were all part of it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur region needs more Hospitals. If we can contribute towards it, we would feel blessed,\u201d both nod together. There\u2019s silence in the room.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMama guides us to save for the rainy day,\u201d Dika says. \u201cHe advices us where to invest.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOne has to,\u201d experienced Mama speaks. \u201cI have seen so many Players earn so much and then spend without keeping a tab. I don\u2019t want it to happen to us. But money should never be the priority. We need to continue in the same manner. If they can, money won\u2019t ever stay a constraint. That\u2019s what I tell them.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe\u2019s my Godfather,\u201d Dika smiles.
