When MS Dhoni walked on to the field with just four overs left to go in the match between Delhi Capitals vs Chennai Super Kings on Sunday, March 31, the entire stadium of fans stood up and cheered vintage star cricketer. The crowd in at the Dr. Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy ACA-VDCA Cricket Stadium in Visakhapatnam erupted with excitement to see their hero playing for the first time in IPL 2024 season. 

However, a cameraman panned one of MS Dhoni's fans during the match between CSK and DC, and she became the talk of the town on social media when she was seen cheering for the former Chennai captain from the stands. She went viral on the internet last night after X (formerly known as Twitter) user Mufaddal Vohra shared a screen grab of her after the cameraman captured her cheering.

Who Is Ayesha Khan?

Ayesha Khan is an actress, model and influencer. She made her mark on Bigg Boss season 17 and also worked as a junior artist in the television show 'Kasauti Zindagi Ke'. Ayesha made her television debut with the show Balveer Returns and made her debut film in Telugu with the legal drama Mukhachitram. 

Ayesha Khan came into the limelight during Bigg Boss 17 after making allegations against Munawar Faruqui. She claimed that contestant Munawar Faruqui had wronged her by making some false promises. She even confronted him and settled scores while on the show. But with that, Ayesha won an image of being publicity-hungry. She was even accused of cashing on Munawar’s name and fame to make it to this platform.
