Shahid Afridi, whose first-ever sports film 'Main Hoon Shahid Afridi' released to quite a buzz on August 23, has revealed that the movie was just about satisfactory.

During his visit to Atrium Cinemas in Pakistan, Afridi said that there is nothing extraordinary about the film, the Express Tribune reported.

He said that it's an okay film, keeping Pakistani standards in mind, but in comparison to Bollywood, they are still way behind.

The cricketer appreciated film-maker's efforts to make the movie, which is about what it takes to achieve one's dreams and how difficult it is to pursue a career in cricket in Pakistan.
