The best part about Shikhar Dhawan’s Instagram is that every once in a while it throws up a surprise, and a pleasant one at that. Remember his #BreakTheBeard videos? What a rage they were. No matter what he does, he ends up giving you style goals. And if a recent video he posted is anything to go by, then you’re in for a big, big surprise. His legendary mooch is back and it’s looking cooler than ever. Watch watch!
He dedicated his new look to the ongoing Pro Kabaddi League and even attended one of the matches. Kabaddi is all about playing for your team’s pride and what can be a better symbol of this than the mooch? And when it comes to the mooch, who can be more suitable than Shikhar to lead the trend? Everything falls in place, you see.
The action has clearly shifted from #BreakTheBeard to #MoochKaSawaalHai and we couldn’t have been more excited. Inspired by Shikhar, kabaddi player Siddharth Desai of U Mumba traded his bearded look for a slick moustache.
The moustache is slowly, but surely taking over the kabaddi scene. After Siddharth, you have Mohit Chillar from Jaipur Pink Panthers who has joined the mooch gang. Check out this picture!
Honestly, this new trend is a treat to the eyes as beards were becoming an eyesore. We can’t thank Shikhar enough for keeping the mooch flag flying high.
It would be great to see how quickly the mooch trend catches on given how popular kabaddi is among the youth. Till then, we’re eagerly waiting to see which other player gets ready to flaunt his moustache. *Goes back to Instagram*
