Fans Show Immense Love Towards Indian Skipper:

When Rohit Sharma stepped out to greet his fans, the atmosphere turned electric as chants of “Mumbaicha Raja” (King of Mumbai) filled the air. The excitement reflected the immense admiration Mumbaikars hold for their cricketing hero.

His car was quickly engulfed by a sea of supporters, making movement nearly impossible. In a heartwarming gesture, Rohit stood through the sunroof, waving and acknowledging the overwhelming love from the crowd. The moment highlighted the bond between the Indian captain and his fans, with the video of this grand reception spreading rapidly on social media platforms.

Rohit Sharma has long been one of Indian cricket’s most consistent performers and a beloved figure in Mumbai. Having represented the city in domestic cricket, he further strengthened his bond with fans by captaining Mumbai Indians (MI) to a record five IPL championships.

Currently, Rohit has been away from competitive cricket for a few months, with his last appearance coming in IPL 2025 for MI. Supporters are eagerly awaiting his return, as he is set to don India’s jersey again in October during the team’s limited-overs tour of Australia, which includes a three-match ODI series.
