Dinesh Karthik, a former cricket player from India, has officially resigned from the game. In Tests, ODIs, and T20Is, among the three-game forms, he was a remarkable player. After playing in 257 Indian Premier League games and 180 international matches, the famed batsman-wicketkeeper has had an amazing career. Karthik scored 1025 runs in Tests, 1752 in ODIs, and 686 in T20Is. Apart from his achievements in cricket, Karthik remains active on social media and frequently engages with his followers.
The internet was thrilled by his recent conversation with one of his admirers, though. He responded to a fan who mistakenly thought he was someone else humorously, showcasing his keen sense of humour.
The fan incorrectly credits cricketer Dinesh Karthik with Vikrant Massey’s outstanding performance in the film “Phir Aayi Hasseen Dilruba.”
We were thrilled by actor Vikrant Massey’s outstanding performance in the recently released film Phir Aayi Hasseen Dillruba. There are several exciting and suspenseful moments throughout the film. Everyone complimented him after its release. Many even expressed their gratitude for Vikrant Massey’s performance on social media. However, everyone’s attention was drawn to a fan’s heartfelt remark.
The entire incident commenced when an admirer on X (formerly Twitter) inadvertently praised cricket player Dinesh Karthik for the film “Phir Aayi Haseen Dilruba” rather than actor Vikrant Massey. The observer tweeted,
Just watched Phir Aayi Hasseen Dilruba, powerful performance by @DineshKarthik.
Amazed by this tweet, Dinesh Karthik replied,
Oh wow !!! Thanks.
Have a look at the conversation
Oh wow !!!
Thanks 🤣😂 https://t.co/D28F2ETkiG

Dinesh Karthik’s hilarious answer left the fans in stitches
Not to mention that Vikrant and Karthik both have bearded faces of a similar type. Perhaps for that reason, the fan thought Karthik was Vikrant. Dinesh Karthik’s reaction quickly attracted the attention of many people. Thousands of comments and hundreds of likes have been left on the post since it was posted.
It was such a national award winning performance. 😀

In his biography, Dinesh Karthik wants Vikrant Massey to portray him:
In an interview for Cricbuzz’s “Hey CB with DK,” Dinesh Karthik discussed actors who may play famous cricket players in biopics. Karthik joked that Vikrant Massey would be a good fit for the role, pointing out that many people think they look alike.
He also selected Vijay Sethupathi for Rohit Sharma, Ranbir Kapoor for Virat Kohli, and Ranveer Singh for Hardik Pandya. Karthik’s hilarious segment offered a distinctive viewpoint on the casting of cricket players in motion pictures and was prompted by the hilarious conversation between Allu Arjun and David Warner.
