Coronavirus outbreak has affected the world severely. The virus is spreading rapidly in India as well. As of today, 673 people have been tested positive for the Covid-19, while 13 lost their lives. As a result, the government has declared a complete lockdown in the country for 21 days, starting from March 25, 2020.

Due to the coronavirus threat, all the sports events, film shootings, and concerts have either been canceled or postponed for the time being. Many people are practicing quarantine to prevent the further spread of this deadly virus.

While being on self-isolation, the filmstars are utilizing this free time to spend some quality time with their family or connecting with their fans on social media.

Recently, Bollywood actor Shahid Kapoor also indulged in a Question-Answer session with his fans on Twitter. It is a well-known fact that Shahid is an avid cricket fan. He follows the game quite closely. Also, the actor is doing a film Jersey, which is based on cricket.

In a live chat, a Twitter user asked Shahid to make a tough choice between India’s current captain, Virat Kohli, and former skipper MS Dhoni.

Shahid’s reply to this question was heartwarming and would have pleased a lot of cricket fans. He indirectly answered that picking one between these two cricket legends is similar to choosing between his mother or father.

The actor replied: “Mummy or papa? (Mother or father) “.

Dhoni has been on a prolonged break since India’s semi-final loss to New Zealand in the 2019 World Cup. Kohli is considered as the best batsman in the world across formats. He recently failed to lead India to a Test series win in New Zealand as they lost 0-2.

The Indian team was supposed to take on South Africa in a three-match ODI series at home, but it got postponed due to the coronavirus outbreak.

Dhoni was back at the nets for Chennai Super Kings (CSK), of which he is the captain, but with the Indian Premier League (IPL) getting postponed, the two-times World Cup-winning skipper had to return midway.
