John Cena’s love for India and Indian celebrities is well-known. The wrestler has the habit of posting pictures of Indian celebrities on his Instagram handle, sometimes photoshopping their images and turning it into a meme, which Ranveer Singh is familiar with. Only those who are popular or have a notable body of work have featured on his page.
It seems the WWE star held Sushant Singh Rajput in high regard too, as the actor too had featured on his handle once before. Cena, on September 17 last year, had shared a candid snap of the MS Dhoni: The Untold Star, wearing sunglasses and dressed in Army pants, while standing with Armymen. The wrestler in his usual style, did not have any caption, but the snap had made headlines in India.

John Cena’s second post for Ssuhant, however, was a similar one, without any caption, but unfortunately after his untimely demise on Sunday. Their conversation on meeting at Wrestlemania, not just this year, but also in the future, stayed unfulilled.
