Mumbai Indians star Rohit Sharma found himself in a relatable yet viral predicament today as a video surfaced showing him visibly frustrated with his driver. The incident, which occurred just as Rohit was arriving at his hotel ahead of IPL 2026 commitments, has quickly become a trending topic on social media.
The video captures “Hitman” waiting at the rear of his luxury SUV, expecting the trunk to open so he could retrieve his cricket gear. However, a technical glitch or a mishap by the driver caused the automated trunk to remain jammed.As the driver struggled with the controls from inside the cabin, a frustrated Rohit Sharma was seen gesturing emphatically and exchanging a few sharp words. The former Indian skipper’s impatient reaction – likely fueled by a long travel day – has sparked a mix of humor and debate among fans.
Fortunately, the trunk eventually opened, and Rohit was seen heading into the lobby, though the video ends before any “all-clear” smiles were exchanged.

Known for his “chill” and often humorous persona on the field, this rare display of public annoyance has triggered a wave of memes: Many fans defended the captain, noting that everyone has “one of those days” when technology fails at the worst moment.
