Two former Indian captains, MS Dhoni and Rohit Sharma, reunited once again, this time not on the cricket field, but in a light-hearted advertisement that quickly caught the attention of fans. The two superstars feature in a new ad for SRMB Steel where they take part in a kite flying competition and outplay their opponents in classic Indian fashion.
The clip has gone viral across social media, with viewers pointing out how natural the pair look while sharing the screen. Dhoni and Rohit spent years as teammates in India and their bond still resonates off the field. The ad capitalizes on that familiarity, showing them smiling, strategizing, and working together to win the battle of the dragons.
Watch the video here:
Rohit’s form on the cricket field is on the rise, fresh from a strong performance in the recently concluded ODI series in India against South Africa. India won the series 2-1 and Rohit played a key role in the decider in Visakhapatnam. In the final match, he scored a fluent 75 off 73 balls to end the series on 146 runs. His consistency helped him retain the top spot in the ICC ODI rankings, where he holds a narrow lead over Virat Kohli.
Dhoni, meanwhile, remains one of the most recognizable faces in Indian cricket despite stepping back from international action. He will next be seen in the IPL 2026 season after Chennai Super Kings confirmed his retention ahead of the mini-auction. Dhoni is yet to reveal whether this will be his last season, but his comeback continues to generate huge excitement among fans.
