Babul Supriyo recollects being brutally trolled in connection with M. S. Dhoni

Babul Supriyo shares a personal story of being brutally trolled after his children tried to meet MS Dhoni and he couldn't provide the cricketer's phone number.

"I was brutally bullied & trolled with messages & voice notes for being ‘A DUMBO’ - Babul Supriyo"

Mumbai, Dec 21

Actor, singer and politician Babul Supriyo has shared an incident when he was brutally bullied & trolled. On Sunday, he took to his Instagram, and shared a throwback video of his kids playing in front of Indian cricketing legend M.S. Dhoni.

He also penned a long note in the caption, as he narrated the story behind the video. He wrote, “Once upon a time in front of #msdhoni7 's House gate in Ranchi: This is my little one Naina & her cousin brother Golu on a trip to Ranchi with their grandparents ! And this is the GATE OF Thala-Dhoni @mahi7781. This is what they did in front of his gate to meet him, spoke to the watchman gave him my card, said I am also a minister .. blah blah blah obviously it didn't work so then they called me to ask for my help, their name-throwing was hilarious”.

He further mentioned, “I mentioned every name that they thought I knew very well to get his number when I told them it's impossible, very few have his number & he seldom uses a phone. Result, I was brutally bullied & trolled with messages & voice notes for being being ‘A DUMBO’ but it's heartwarming to see how much love this Man has earned across generations. Take a bow & honestly, I felt sad I couldn't & couldn't have done anything”.

M.S. Dhoni is one of Indian cricket’s most iconic leaders, celebrated for his calm demeanor and sharp tactical mind. Rising from Ranchi to the world stage, Dhoni redefined captaincy with instinct-driven decisions and unshakeable composure under pressure. He led India to historic triumphs, including the 2007 T20 World Cup, the 2011 ODI World Cup, and the 2013 Champions Trophy, becoming the only captain to win all three ICC white-ball titles.

As a wicketkeeper-batsman, his finishing ability and helicopter shot became legendary. Beyond records, Dhoni’s legacy lies in nurturing talent and trusting youth.

Haha, the kids trying to use their dad's minister card to meet Dhoni is so cute and so typical! Every kid in India has done something like this for their hero. But the trolling part is not okay. We need to be kinder online.

As an outsider following Indian cricket, the devotion to Dhoni is fascinating. But this story shows the dark side of fandom. Bullying someone because they don't have a celebrity's contact? That's just toxic. Respect for Supriyo for sharing this.

Honestly, while the trolling was wrong, I can't help but feel Babul Supriyo should have known better than to even try. Everyone knows Mahi is intensely private. Trying to use political clout or connections to get to him was always going to backfire, na?

This just proves Dhoni's aura. From a small-town boy to a legend whose phone number is a prized possession! His humility and success story inspire millions. The trolling is unfortunate, but the love for Thala is real across all ages. 💛

The man gave us 2011. He can live on the moon for all I care and I'd still respect his space. Fans need to chill. Good on Babul for taking the trolling in his stride and still praising Dhoni.
