Many of his followers were taken aback by this open revelation, posted on social media late at night, as they are used to his positive attitude. Now the question looms: what may be disturbing "Gabbar" at late hours?

Recently, Dhawan's life has changed significantly in both his personal and on-field domains. His divorce, after he left cricket, has drawn a lot of media coverage. Fans conjecture that these life upheavals may be the cause of his restless nights. Is he maybe about to start a fresh chapter or is he looking back?

Usually renowned for his light-hearted postings like dancing videos and workout regimens, Dhawan's most recent remark has a more serious note. Fan reactions range; from mixed expressions, let's take a look at some of the reactions: 

Shikhar Dhawan has always been praised as among the most brilliant players in the country. His graceful stroke play and strong record have confirmed his value for Indian cricket. But his choice to call it curtains on both domestic and international cricket had stunned the spectators. He made a clear statement on Saturday, August 24, 2024, about retiring from the game.

After making his debut on the international scene in 2010, the 38-year-old has a career spanning over 13 years. Dhawan accumulated over 10,000 runs across many forms during this period: 2,315 runs in tests, 6,793 runs in ODIs, and 1,579 runs in T20Is.

Dhawan made a big impression in important ICC events even if his international career may not have been as long as other of his contemporaries like Rohit Sharma , Virat Kohli , or MS Dhoni .

His best performance came in England and Wales during the 2013 ICC Champions Trophy . Named Player of the Tournament, Dhawan took home the Golden Bat for the leading run-scorer.

In December 2022 Shikhar Dhawan last featured for India in an ODI against Bangladesh . Since then, he has been finding it hard to compete with the young rising stars like Shubman Gill—who now has the ODI starting slot—take the stage under the new head coach Gautam Gambhir .

Shikhar Dhawan concluded his participation in the IPL during the 2024 season with the Punjab Kings when he faced the Sunrisers Hyderabad . However, he was unable to play due to an injury and did not appear much in the IPL 2024. In just 5 games in 2024, he scored 152 runs. However, he is a true IPL icon too, as he has scored 6769 runs in 222 IPL games since his debut in 2008.
