‘Aunty Aapka Beta…’: Fan’s Comment on Rohit Sharma And His Mother’s Reel Stirs Nostalgia – News18

Rohit Sharma’s career reached its zenith last week when he led India to a thrilling T20 World Cup victory against South Africa in Barbados. This momentous achievement naturally drew his mother, Poornima, to the felicitation ceremony at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai on Thursday. Overjoyed to reunite with her son after over a month, Mrs. Sharma showered the 37-year-old champion with kisses in a heartwarming video that quickly went viral on social media.

While the internet basked in the unfiltered love between mother and son, one cricket fan added a hilarious twist to the viral moment. Commenting on the reel, the fan wrote, “Aunty apka beta mitti khata hai,” cheekily referring to Rohit’s symbolic gesture of tasting the soil from the Barbados pitch. The comment, echoing the playful complaints of childhood, struck a chord with desi fans who couldn’t stop laughing.

A screenshot of this amusing exchange surfaced on ‘X,’ leaving viewers in splits.

“Nah no way bro did that,” exclaimed one user. “Mummy be like – Haay kitna patla ho gaya hai kuch khata hai ki nahi,” added another, sparking a wave of similarly humorous comments about Rohit’s on-field antics.

“Aunty aapka beta garden mein ghumne ni deta,” joked one fan. Another quipped, “Aunty aapka beta gaali bhi deta hainn,” while a third chimed in, “Aunty aapka beta kuchh chize bhul jata h.” The playful banter continued, each comment funnier than the last.

Meanwhile, in an interview with the Indian Express, Mrs. Sharma shared that Rohit had planned to retire from T20Is before the World Cup. “I have never thought I would see this day. Before going to the World Cup, he had come to meet us and said that he wanted to quit T20Is after this. I just said try to win. I was not feeling well today and had a doctor’s appointment, but I still came as I wanted to see this day.”

She continued, “I can’t express my happiness. Look at the cheering. I have never experienced this kind of atmosphere. The amount of love he is getting is because of his hard work and dedication. I’m the happiest mother today. What more can I ask now! This day won’t come again in life. As he was taking the lap of honour, it was an emotional moment as he has been playing for a day like this.”
