Alia Bhatt might be one of the popular stars in Bollywood, but former South African batsman Herschelle Gibbs was totally unaware of who she is.
On Sunday, Gibbs posted a status that read, “Morning, birds are tweeting so I’ll do the same and say have a good one folks,” which was liked by Twitter’s official account.

Now, Gibbs, who was delighted with Twitter’s reaction, shared a GIF featuring Alia Bhatt to express his happiness. However, he wasn’t familiar with Alia’s popularity.

When a Twitterati asked the former cricketer, “Do you know Alia?” he replied, “I have no idea who the lady is.”

What followed suit was a series of comments from Alia’s fans, who schooled Gibbs about the popularity of Bollywood actress.
