A video from outside the Melbourne Cricket Ground after Sunday's nerve-wracking encounter was reshared by Bollywood actor Abhishek Bachchan and has gone massively viral since then on social media platforms. Fans from Pakistan and India can be seen in the video, dancing their hearts out to the evergreen Punjabi dance song Ishq Tera Tadpave (Oh Ho Ho Ho) by Sukhbir.
Furthermore, flags of both countries can also be seen being waved in the background by the supporters. "The unity at MCG," read a text on the video that has been viewed over 2 lakh times on the microblogging platform Twitter.
