Not selfie then a kiss

In a viral video, Rohit Sharma can be seen surrounded by his security guards as he walks towards his team vehicle, with countless fans vying for a selfie with him.

Amidst this frenzy, a male fan steps forward and requests a selfie. When the MI skipper politely declines, the fan takes it a step further and asks for a kiss on his cheeks. This unusual request leaves Rohit visibly shocked. Nevertheless, he handles the situation gracefully and calmly asks the fan to step aside so he can proceed.

Expressing his disgust, the 36-year-old cricketer then walks into the team bus, leaving the unexpected encounter behind. The viral video has garnered humorous reactions from Twitter users in the comment section.
