Indian cricketer Mahendra Singh Dhoni is currently in the United States for a vacation. The former captain of India attended the US Open 2023, where he witnessed the Men’s Singles quarter-final match between defending champion Carlos Alcaraz and Germany's Alexander Zverev. Pictures of Dhoni and his new look, with long hair and a beard, are taking the internet by storm. Amid that, a video of the cricketer has also gone viral online and his fans have fallen in love with him all over again.
In the now-viral video that was shared on X (formerly Twitter) by a page called CricWatcher, Dhoni can be seen signing miniature bats for a fan. It seemed like the fan had the best encounter of his life on the streets of US as he looked quite excited while getting clicked with the cricket icon and getting his autograph as well. He also had a box of chocolates in his hands.
After signing the miniature bats, Dhoni was seen asking for the box of chocolates in his trademark unfiltered, “Captain Cool” style. “Chocolate wapas do (Give the chocolates back),” he was heard saying as people behind the camera laughed as well.

“He is a gem,” a third user remarked. A fourth user wrote, “This made my month.”
Another person chimed in, “Dhoni is an emotion.”
Meanwhile, the cricket legend was photographed with former US President Donald Trump, after a game of golf with him. Pictures and a video of their meeting created a flutter on the internet. The photograph was taken by Dubai-based entrepreneur Hitesh Sanghvi. “Golf with @mahi7781, @realdonaldtrump and @rajiv.knack. Thank you mr president for hosting us," he wrote on Instagram.
