One of India’s finest batsmen in his heyday, Gautam Gambhir took a hilarious dig at former teammate Harbhajan Singh on Twitter.
Gambhir and Harbhajan share a great bond with each other. They have shared the same dressing room for the Indian cricket team for several years. They were even a part of the Indian cricket team during India’s iconic 2011 World Cup triumph. Both the cricketers played a crucial role in helping the MS Dhoni-led Indian cricket team lift their prestigious trophy.

On Thursday, Gambhir, who is an MP from the Bhartiya Janata Party for the East Delhi Constituency, took to his social media and shared a picture with the cricketer-turned Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader Harbhajan Singh.
Gambhir, who is known for speaking his mind, is often seen criticizing AAP and Arvind Kejriwal openly on Twitter. He never shies away from taking a dig at the opposition party and criticizing them on political matters. Sharing the picture of himself with Bhajji, Gambhir came up with a hilarious caption, trolling the AAP member, who is also his great friend. He wrote:
“AAPse toh purani dosti hai aur rahegi! @harbhajan_singh 
”

Meanwhile, recently during a presser over BJP’s 8 years in power, Gambhir gave a fitting reply to his critics after he was asked why he works in the Indian Premier League (IPL) despite working as an MP from the BJP.
Responding to this, Gambhir explained that he needs to take up these jobs in order to continue to do the welfare work that he has been doing for the ones in need. Speaking about the same, Gambhir said:
“Why I commentate in IPL or work in it is because I spend INR 25 lakh every month to feed 5000 people. This translates to roughly 2.75 crores per year. I’ve also spent INR 25 lakh to build a library.”
He added: “I spend all of this money from my own pocket and not from the MPLAD fund. The MPLAD fund doesn’t run my kitchen or other things that I do. I don’t have a tree in my house from where I can pluck money either,”
