The IPL fever has taken the whole country into its grip and fans are leaving no stone unturned in supporting their favourite team. However, it is not necessary that your favourite player is in the team that you support; so what will you do when your favourite team clashes with the team of your favourite player?
Kunal Samant, a fan of Mumbai Indians (MI), has come up with a solution to this problem and he used it in the match in which Mumbai Indians was facing Chennai Super Kings (CSK).
Kunal was cheering for MI but as his favourite player MS Dhoni walked in to bat, he quickly wore the yellow shirt and started shouting for MSD. The video in which he is wearing yellow jersey went viral on the Internet and social media.

Kunal looks very similar to Yuva Sena president Aaditya Thackeray and Aaditya himself tweeted the video in which Kunal can be seen removing yellow jersey after Dhoni gets out.
He shared the video with caption, “Looks like me?? Don’t know. Would he be comfy in politics? Sure! 😬😁”

When the video got viral, Kunal also took to Twitter to explain the reason of his act and we totally agree with what he said about Dhoni. He wrote,
“I did it as a tribute to @msdhoni because he has given us so much as Indian cricket fans!
I will always support Mumbai Indians because I belong here. But I’ll never forget everything that Dhoni has given us.
I apologise if anyone hasn’t liked it.”
