CSK vs MI: Vignesh Puthur X Following List Stirs Controversy; Fans Point Out He Follows Adult Actress

By MyKhel Staff

CSK vs MI: Mumbai Indians' young debutant Vignesh Puthur made headlines for his impressive performance against Chennai Super Kings in IPL 2025. However, something controversial caught everyone's attention too.

The left-arm wrist-spinner from Kerala, who had never played a senior-level domestic match before, stunned the cricketing world by taking three crucial wickets. However, while MI fans celebrated his unheralded talent, social media quickly turned its attention to an unexpected detail -- his X, formerly Twitter, following list.

Vignesh Puthur X Following List controversy

Fans noticed that Vignesh Puthur's official Twitter account follows adult actress Dani Daniels. The discovery set off a wave of reactions, memes, and debates across the platform, turning the cricketer into an overnight talking point beyond his on-field heroics.

One fan highlighted this with a tweet that quickly went viral: "Vignesh Puthur follows Dani Daniels and has RCB in his Twitter bio 😭😭😭😭" (March 23, 2025). The post not only pointed out his unexpected following choice but also humorously noted his apparent support for Mumbai Indians' rivals, Royal Challengers Bangalore.

Another fan joked about the possibility of Puthur addressing the controversy himself, stating, "Vignesh Puthur will probably post his first ever tweet today. PS:- Don't look at his following list." (March 23, 2025). The post was accompanied by a screenshot hinting at the growing buzz around his social media activity.

Despite the off-field chatter, many fans remained focused on Puthur's on-field impact. The 23-year-old spinner delivered a dream debut, dismissing CSK's key batters, including captain Ruturaj Gaikwad and big-hitting Shivam Dube. His final scalp, Deepak Hooda, solidified Mumbai's fightback in the match.

A supporter commended his efforts, tweeting, "Lost the game but love this boy Vignesh Puthur 👏🙌" (March 23, 2025). Another summed up his performance succinctly: "A dream debut ✨ 3 overs 3 wickets Vignesh Puthur 🦬" (March 23, 2025).

While the Twitter controversy added an unexpected twist to Puthur's IPL debut, his performance proved that he has the potential to be a valuable asset for Mumbai Indians. As the season progresses, all eyes will remain on his skills with the ball-rather than his Twitter following list.
