Bollywood actor Varun Dhawan made a viral joke even funnier after fans confused him with Indian cricketer Varun Chakravarthy. Instead of ignoring the mix-up, Dhawan joined the fun by photoshopping his face onto the cricketer’s body!
Sharing a video of Chakravarthy taking a wicket during India’s match against New Zealand, Dhawan wrote, “Since the internet is having fun, I decided to join in. All the best to the boys in blue and the other VARUN to shine bright on Sunday. Let’s go 🇮🇳.” His post quickly went viral, with fans loving his sense of humor.
Fans played along with the joke, commenting things like:
🗣️ “So proud of you! Can’t wait for you to take more wickets on Sunday!”
🏏 “Varun bhai, take more than 5 wickets in the final!”
😂 “Varun Dha One – Mystery Bowler!”
The confusion started when Chakravarthy took a crucial wicket of Australian batsman Travis Head during India’s semifinal against Australia. The next day, Dhawan posted a shirtless gym picture, and instead of talking about his fitness, fans started congratulating him for taking the wicket!
Adding to the fun, Chakravarthy himself commented on Dhawan’s post, saying, “Well bowled bhaiya,” with a folded hands emoji. This unexpected crossover left fans in splits!
India will face New Zealand in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 final on Sunday in Dubai. Fans will be hoping for a big win—maybe from both Varuns! 😆🏏
