Why Rahul Dravid is called 'Jammy'
¡®Jammy,¡¯ as he is popularly known among his friends and colleagues, has significantly influenced Indian cricket in both playing and coaching capacities. PTI reports indicate that it is his father¡¯s occupation at Kissan, a famous jam-making company that gave the former Indian skipper his endearing nickname. It was at St. Joseph¡¯s Boys¡¯ High School where Dravid¡¯s schoolmates began referring to him as ¡®Jammy¡¯ as a result of this.
Amul's connection with Rahul Dravid is long-standing. They previously acknowledged his iconic CRED advertisement, which showed him in an uncharacteristically angry avatar. Amul's witty response was, ¡°Jammy is raging, Butter is calming,¡± adding, ¡°Amul, take a deep breath.¡±
