Mohali: Bollywood actor Sushant Singh Rajput, who played MS Dhoni's character in his recently released biopic 'MS Dhoni: The untold story', was present during India's emphatic win over New Zealand in the third ODI played at Punjab Cricket Association Stadium in Chandigarh.
As a build up to the match, Sushant first posted a photograph wearing Team India jersey and asked the fans to guess where he was headed to. "Guess where I am headed to..? See you soon," he tweeted.

The actor soon reached the stadium, from where he witnessed MS Dhoni's 80-run knock, where the skipper also stitched 151 runs for the third wicket with Virat Kohli (154*).
Dhoni promoted himself up in the battting order, at No. 4, and entertained the fans with some breathtaking strokes. Sushant soon posted one of the dialogues from the movie, "Hum bole the naa mahiya upar aayega to bahut maarega"

Impressed by Dhoni's 91-ball 80, Sushant tweeted, "Bahut Maara
