A die-hard MS Dhoni fan pedals 1200 KM to camp outside Thala's Ranchi farmhouse in hopes of meeting idol

New Delhi: Despite retiring from international cricket over 5 years ago, former Team India captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni continues to enjoy massive popularity among fans. While he is only seen in action during the IPL matches, his fan following remains unwavering. Dhoni always ensures to greet his fans with a smile and a wave, but being a public figure, it can be challenging for him to meet every fan at all times. A recent incident came to light where a dedicated fan cycled over 1,200 kilometers to reach Dhoni's house in Ranchi, hoping to meet his idol. However, due to Dhoni's busy schedule, the fan was unable to meet him for several days.

A die-hard fan of Dhoni was disappointed when he camped outside his house for several days, but could not meet his favourite cricketer. The former Indian captain did not meet his fan outside his luxurious farmhouse in Ranchi. Gaurav Kumar has shared several photos and videos on social media, in which he has told how he reached here. This fan reportedly travelled about 1,200 kilometres from Delhi to Ranchi on a bicycle and wanted to meet Dhoni.

This fan of MS Dhoni waited at the gate of the farmhouse for almost a week and slept there by putting up a tent outside, to catch a glimpse of Dhoni, whom he finally saw twice while coming out of the gate, but Dhoni, who made Chennai Super Kings a five-time IPL champion, was unaware of Gaurav’s dedication to meet him and hence he did not stop his car to meet him. However, he waved from inside his car. For this, many people are criticizing Dhoni and calling him arrogant.

Let us tell you that Dhoni stops his car almost every day to take selfies and shake hands with the fans waiting outside his farmhouse. On this special occasion, Dhoni might have been in a hurry, due to which he did not stop his car or it could also be that he was not aware that Gaurav had come from such a distance to meet Dhoni. Gaurav had also gone from Delhi to Chennai by bicycle to meet Dhoni during the Indian Premier League, but he was unlucky on that occasion.
