'They Are Completely Broken': Netizens React To Rohit, Ritika's Viral Picture At Daughter Samaira's Annual Function

Fans were quick to react to the viral picture with some netizens expressing concerns over Rohit Sharma and Ritika Sajdeh's worried expression in the picture.

Five-time champions Mumbai Indians (MI) recently removed the captain who had led them to each of their five Indian Premier League (IPL) titles Rohit Sharma. The franchise appointed Hardik Pandya as the skipper of the side for IPL 2024 days before the auction on December 19. The decision has stunned fans, many of them were supporters of the Blue and the Gold Brigade only because they were admirers of Rohit Sharma.

The same can be gauged from the fact that MI have seen a significant dip in their social media followers shortly after they announced the decision to replace Rohit as their leader. There hasn't been an official statement from Rohit either. However, MI star and his wife Ritika Sajdeh were spotted at daughter Samaira's annual function at the Dhirubhai Ambani International School in Mumbai.

Fans were quick to react to the viral picture with some netizens expressing concerns over their worried expression in the picture.
