Priya Prakash Varrier reveals MS Dhoni is her favourite cricketer

Chennai, Feb 17: Mahendra Singh Dhoni is a phenomenon of its kind. The former Indian captain is loved by one and all. He is one of the most successful captains to have graced the Indian jersey and the only captain in the world to have won all the major ICC trophies including the World Cup across formats.

Priya Varrier has become the hottest topic of discussion among Indians lately. The Malayalam actress has been all over social media ever since her appearance in the teaser song Mani Manikya Malaraya Poovi from film "Oru Adaar Love" (A Superb Love Story) brought her massive fame from different corners of the country. While the 18-year-old has become the 'national crush,' she revealed the name of her favourite cricketer and it's none other than Dhoni.

In an interview to media, Priya - who is being dubbed as "India's unofficial national crush" - revealed that Dhoni is her favourite cricketer.

Dhoni is my favourite cricketer," said Priya.

A wink, and a shy but mischievous smile by Malayalam actress Priya in a 28-second clip from a film song has turned the 18-year-old into an overnight internet sensation.
