Love knows no boundaries: Fan breaks through security to get hug from Dhoni
Mahendra Singh Dhoni has a massive fan following in India and abroad. His fans usually spare no efforts to get one glimpse of the captain of Chennai Super Kings, even if it comes at the cost of breaching security and interrupting the practice match.

A 21-year-old college student created a flutter at the MA Chidambaram cricket stadium in Chepauk on Sunday evening when he breached the security and ran towards Dhoni during a practice match.
Aravindkumar from Madurai, a Dhoni fan, crossed the security ring and ran towards Dhoni for a hug. In a viral video that is being circulated on social media, Dhoni is seen running around and darting between his teammates to keep the fan hunting.
Later, the CSK captain, however, went to the fan and shook hands while he continued to request for a hug. Meanwhile, security personnel and policemen rushed to the spot and whisked away Aravindkumar to take him to the Triplicane police station.
During questioning, he said he was a college student from Madurai and he reached Chennai to meet Dhoni. The police let him go after a warning. “His intention was to meet Dhoni, nothing else,” the police said.
The CSK team is scheduled to play its first match against Bengaluru on March 23.
