The internet once again proved why it’s the wildest stadium when cricket fever takes over! After Virat Kohli’s shocking dismissal for just 7 runs in RCB’s first home game of IPL 2025 against Gujarat Titans, fans erupted in an emotional meltdown—but in classic social media fashion, they crashed the wrong party.

Fans Flood Arshad Warsi’s Instagram Instead of Arshad Khan’s
Instead of directing their frustration toward GT pacer Arshad Khan, who dismissed Kohli with a short-pitched delivery, some passionate fans mistook Arshad Khan for Bollywood actor Arshad Warsi (yes, Circuit from Munna Bhai!) and bombarded the veteran actor’s Instagram with hilarious and dramatic comments.
It all started when Arshad Khan bowled a bouncer, and Kohli mistimed his pull shot, getting caught at deep fine leg. The packed Chinnaswamy Stadium fell silent, but on social media, the reactions exploded.
One fan hilariously commented on Arshad Warsi’s recent Instagram post:
🗣 “Kohli ko out kyu kiya? 😢” (Why did you get Kohli out?)
Another fan, channeling pure Bollywood energy, wrote:
🗣 “Dekh lunga terko” (I’ll see you later) – straight out of a dramatic revenge scene!
Flashbacks to Varun Dhawan-Varun Chakravarthy Banter
This isn’t the first time cricket fans have mixed up names in a viral moment. Back in the day, when Varun Chakravarthy delivered a match-winning performance, confused fans flooded Bollywood actor Varun Dhawan’s comments, believing he was the cricketer. That mix-up led to a hilarious social media exchange, with both Varuns playing along with the joke.
With IPL 2025 just getting started, who knows which unsuspecting celebrity might become the next accidental target of cricket-crazy fans?
