Years after his international retirement, former India captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni remains a fan favorite, with crowds flocking around the wicketkeeper-batter for a single glimpse.  

Dhoni, 42, during his early cricketing years, sported the long-haired style, which captivated not only former Pakistan President Pervez Musharraf but also attracted a large amount of female following. 

Despite Dhoni's marriage to Sakshi Singh Rawat in 2010, the adulation from female fans has not gone down.

Now, a clip of Dhoni getting hugged by a female fan is going viral on the social media platform 'X', where the current Chennai Super Kings (CSK) captain could be seen sporting long locks.

In the viral video, a girl named Haseena Nasreen could be seen hugging the former Indian captain outside the Eden Gardens stadium in Kolkata after breaking away from the security cordon.

Nasreen followed the India team around during their stay in Kolkata and finally met her favorite cricketer after Dhoni stepped off the team bus to meet another fan, before the the former caught hold of the cricketer. The Behrampore-based fan wanted to give Dhoni a birthday card in advance as well. 

Dhoni played for India between 2004 and 2019, where the wicketkeeper-batter featured in 90 Tests, 350 ODIs, and 98 T20Is, amassing 17,266 runs with 16 centuries and 108 fifties combined across formats. 

The CSK captain is expected to play the upcoming Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 edition after the franchise to a record-equalling fifth title last year.
