In a humorous interaction on social media, former Indian wicketkeeper-batter Dinesh Karthik showcased his sharp wit when a fan mistakenly identified him as Bollywood actor Vikrant Massey. The mix-up occurred after the release of Massey’s latest film, ‘Phir Aayi Haseen Dilruba’, a romantic thriller that premiered on Netflix on Friday (August 9) and has been trending on the platform ever since.

Dinesh Karthik responds with a funny comeback to a fan

Massey, known for his role in the critically acclaimed movie 12th Fail, has gained significant popularity for his versatile acting skills. However, one fan, seemingly struck by a resemblance between Karthik and Massey, tweeted after watching Massey’s ‘Phir Aayi Haseen Dilruba’ playfully congratulating Karthik for his “performance” in the film.

“Just watched Phir Aayi Haseen Dilruba, powerful performance by @Dineshkarthik”, a fan wrote on X (formerly Twitter).

“Oh wow!!! Thanks” Karthik replied to the fan.
