Actor-comedian Kapil Sharma who is currently hosting super-hit comedy series- The Kapil Sharma Show on Sony TV, not only has a huge fan base in India, but there are millions of Indians staying outside who adore him.

The comedy impact is so much so that even cricket players can be seen copying his famous gestures. Recently during a Caribbean Premier League (CPL) match between Barbados Tridents and Guyana Amazon Warriors, West Indies off-spinner Ashley Nurse celebrated a wicket with Kapil Sharma's 'Babaji Ka Thullu' gesture.

On air, commentator Ian Bishop was heard saying "This celebration in honour of his friend Sunny Sohal, who he (Nurse) met at the end of one CPL season. And it is called the 'Babaji Ka Thullu'. I don't know what it means but that is what he calls that particular celebration."

When Kapil Sharma himself came across the celebration video which has gone viral, he was in splits and immediately shared it on Twitter.

However, during the post-match presentation ceremony, the West Indian revealed that he was dedicating the celebration to his Indian friend- Sunny Sohal, whom he met during the CPL. "He told me, when you get a wicket do a 'Babaji Ka Thullu' or something," Nurse explained.
