MS Dhoni
This mistake was probably due to the fact that Sushant Singh Rajput portrayed the role of the Jharkand cricketer in the Bollywood biopic 'MS Dhoni: The Untold Story.' Virender Sehwag wasted no time in trolling the website with a post on Twitter, by asking their airline to not mistake him with one of his duplicates.
However, little did Viru know that he himself had goofed up after mistaking the UAE based website for an airline carrier. Emirates airline then replied to Sehwag assuring him that they 'got his back' with this Tweet.
Guess Virender Sehwag finally got a taste of his own medicine, in a subtle manner.
