Watch: Mumbai Indians welcome Jasprit Bumrah with ‘Dhurandhar’ style video ahead of IPL 2026

Mumbai Indians welcomed back Jasprit Bumrah ahead of the IPL 2026 season with a funny reference to Dhurandhar 2. The fast bowler had been at the BCCI CoE, but he is now available for the MI vs KKR game on Sunday.

Trent Boult, who is from New Zealand, delivered the dialogue in perfect Hindi without any hesitation. In the arrival video, Boult can be seen saying, “Ghar Ki Yaad Nahi Aayi Tujhe Jassi.”

The dialogue comes from a tense moment in Dhurandhar: The Revenge, where the character Pinda says the line. It became popular for its emotional punch and timing, and many people made memes and shared it on Instagram, Facebook, and X.

MI’s special video for Jasprit Bumrah goes viral before IPL 2026

In this video, Jasprit Bumrah and Trent Boult, two key players of MI, featured mimicking the famous dialogue from Dhurandhar 2. In the movie, the line “Ghar ki yaad nahi aayi tujhe, Jassi?” comes at a crucial moment when Gurbaaz Singh (Pinda) identifies his childhood friend Jaskirat (Ranveer Singh) as the Indian spy Hamza in Pakistan.

In the video, Jasprit Bumrah is seen cleaning his face, and suddenly Trent Boult, the champion bowler from New Zealand, delivers the same dialogue.

Notably, a few days ago, Jasprit Bumrah’s wife, Sanjana Ganesan, shared a funny post featuring the dialogue and the actor who delivered it in the film. Teasing Jasprit, Sanjana wrote: “Every time Jasprit thinks about planning a boys’ night,” followed by the Dhurandhar line: “Me: Ghar ki yaad nahi aayi tujhe, Jassi?”

Jasprit Bumrah returns to MI camp ahead of new season

Jasprit Bumrah has rejoined the Mumbai Indians (MI) camp just in time for their IPL 2026 season opener against Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) at the Wankhede Stadium on Sunday, March 29, according to The Indian Express.

The ace pacer had recently been at the BCCI Centre of Excellence (CoE) in Bengaluru, raising questions about his availability for MI. He linked up with the squad on Friday evening, March 27, and is scheduled to take part in his first training session on Saturday, March 28. Bumrah is expected to be available for selection for MI’s opening match against KKR. His return ends a brief but closely monitored absence that had left fans and the franchise eager for clarity ahead of the new season.

Earlier this month, Bumrah played a pivotal role in India’s T20 World Cup title defense. Under skipper Suryakumar Yadav, he delivered consistently across different phases of the game, finishing as the joint-leading wicket-taker with 14 scalps from eight matches.

MI’s recent history underscores his value. Last season, Bumrah missed the team’s first four matches, during which the franchise managed only one win from three games, highlighting his impact on the squad’s performance.
