Video: Novak Djokovic Stars as Mary Poppins

Novak Djokovic concedes frustration can cause his emotions to erupt on court.

The new father is channeling a British nanny— Mary Poppins—as a source for the power of positive thinking.

Watch Novak transform from scripted rage to his Mary Poppins moment about a minute into the video.

"I prefer a lot of smiling, Mary Poppins dancing in the rain," says Nole, apparently subscribing to the Poppins philosophy "In every job that must be done, there is an element of fun."

In a behind-the-scenes video shot during Head filming for the racquet brand's game-raiser commercial, Djokovic says he accepts the fact he's an emotional player and tries to forge inspiration from frustration.

"I like to show my emotions. Sometimes, it's a sense of frustration and you can see that," Djokovic said. "I'm not hiding that. I have to accept it."

Maria Sharapova and Calvin Hemery are also featured in the spot that shows what the players experienced on set shooting the original commercial.
