Viral Video: The playful nature behind the serious demeanour of MS Dhoni has come to fore once again since he took a surprising turn on his trolls.
The 42-year-old former Indian captain flipped the script by featuring in an advertisement for the e-bike brand EMotorad, where he lip-synced to the popular Falguni Pathak song 'Bole Jo Koyal'.

Notably, MS Dhoni's fondness for vintage music is well-known, with sightings of him singing classics during his tenure with the senior national team.
Among his favorites is the iconic "Main Pal Do Pal Ka Shair Hoon" from the 1976 Bollywood hit 'Khabie Khabie'. Interestingly, Dhoni chose this very song as the backdrop for his retirement announcement from international cricket, sharing a nostalgic collection of photos from his playing days on Instagram.
