A video of a CSK fan has gone viral, claiming that he bought black tickets to see Dhoni for Rs. 64,000 and had to delay his daughters' school fees. Many people on the internet are defending him for making his kids happy, while others are criticising his decision.
India loves MS Dhoni, and there is no doubt that he has the most loyal fans of all. Whether it's swarming the stadium with a wave of yellow on CSK match day or travelling across the country just to see him play, people are crazy for him.
But there are some fans who push the limit every time. One such incident has surfaced on the internet, where a CSK fan was so excited to see Dhoni play that he bought IPL tickets worth Rs. 64,000 in black, and in doing so had to delay his daughters' school fees.
An X user named, Dr Jaison Philip posted a video by Sportwalk Chennai, interviewing the CSK fan. Philip captioned the post writing, "I am at a loss for words to describe this stupidity."

The father talked about his excitement to see MS Dhoni on the field in a conversation with Sportwalk Chennai. He said, "I didn't get the tickets, so I bought them in black. It was a total of ₹64,000. I am yet to pay the school fees. But we wanted to see MS Dhoni just once. My three daughters and I are very happy,"
"My father has worked very hard to get these tickets. We were very happy when Dhoni came to play," one of the young daughters said. Some people online are defending the man. One user wrote, "Sir, he didnt say he doesnt have money. He says we will do it later."
"As a father, he knows what makes their kid happy. It’s a once in a lifetime memorable experience which will be remembered throughout their life." Another user commented.
Many are also criticising the man for prioritising an IPL match over his daughters' education. Others have also criticised the government for not taking any action against the sale of black tickets. One person commented, "Height of the nonsense," addressing the extremity of the situation.
