From the cricket pitch to the political battleground, and from comedy stages to cricket commentary boxes, Navjot Singh Sidhu has worn many hats. Now, he’s adding one more — digital content creator. On Wednesday, the former India cricketer and Congress leader announced the launch of his official YouTube channel, ‘Navjot Sidhu Official’, aimed at sharing personal stories, experiences, and motivational content.
“There’s no instant coffee in life,” Sidhu remarked at the launch, emphasizing that his content will focus on the lessons he’s learned through struggles and challenges over the years.
“Maine zindagi mein bahut ragde khaaye hain,” he added candidly, reflecting on a life filled with highs and lows.
A Journey of Transformation — Physical and Digital
Sidhu’s reemergence in public life has been marked by a dramatic transformation. After walking out of Patiala’s central jail in 2023 — having served nearly 10 months in a road rage case dating back to 1988 — Sidhu made headlines for losing over 33 kilograms in just five months.
In January, he posted a before-and-after picture on Instagram, revealing his inspiring weight loss. “Have lost 33 kilograms in less than five months since August,” he wrote, crediting his progress to diet, pranayama, and long walks. Instagram followers lauded his transformation, flooding the comments with appreciation.
Will He Reveal His Weight Loss Secret?
“A lot of people ask me for my weight loss diet chart — maybe a crore people!” Sidhu quipped.
He confirmed that his YouTube channel will feature health and fitness insights, potentially including the much-requested diet plan that helped him shed the extra kilos.
“No Politics on This Channel”
Despite his deep political roots, Sidhu made it clear that Navjot Sidhu Official will steer clear of political content.
“This channel will tell you everything about my life — my journey in cricket, spirituality, health, comedy, lifestyle, and motivation — but not politics,” Sidhu told reporters in Amritsar.
While he left his political future open-ended — “Only time will tell,” he said — he reiterated that this channel is a personal project dedicated to his daughter and fans. His wife, Navjot Kaur, he added, remains politically active and will continue her work.
Sidhu, who once served as Punjab Congress chief, also mentioned that he never took home a rupee from politics. His charisma, clever wordplay, and off-the-cuff remarks have earned him over 1 million followers on X (formerly Twitter) — a testament to his enduring popularity.

Personal Stories, Comedy, Motivation & More
Sidhu’s new channel promises to be a mix of inspiration, entertainment, and life lessons, with content focusing on:
- Cricketing anecdotes and career highs
- Health, fitness, and weight loss tips
- Motivational talks and spiritual insights
- Comedy and lighter moments from ‘The Kapil Sharma Show’
- Lifestyle and personal philosophies
With Navjot Sidhu Official, the larger-than-life personality is setting the stage for a new kind of engagement — one rooted in reflection, resilience, and reinvention.
