MS Dhoni, the legendary India captain, made a seven-second cameo on Rishabh Pant’s Instagram live on Wednesday. Rishabh was seen conversing with Team India captain Rohit Sharma and Suryakumar Yadav on the live video, while other India stars such as Yuzvendra Chahal and Ishant Sharma also appeared. Everyone watching the live video, however, was taken aback when Rishabh Pant attempted to drag MS Dhoni into the Insta live.
“Mahi bhai, kya haal hain,” Rishabh was heard saying. How are you, Mahi brother? Please keep brother on the live),” Dhoni said before ending the conversation on a hilarious note. After hearing Rishabh, Dhoni grabbed the phone and turned off the camera. This quickly became a trending topic on social media, as Indian cricket fans reacted to video with their interesting comments.
