Punjabi music sensation Mika Singh has taken social media by storm once again—but this time, not with a musical announcement. The singer surprised fans by sharing a series of unseen childhood photographs from his cricket days, and the internet cannot stop talking about one thing: Mika Singh’s legendary “not out” streak as a young cricketer.
‘If I wasn’t a singer, I would’ve been a cricketer’
Along with posting the throwback images on Instagram, Mika made a heartfelt and somewhat shocking statement:
“If I weren’t a singer, cricket would have been my career.”
This revelation immediately sparked excitement among fans, especially after seeing how confidently the young Mika stood on the pitch—bat in hand, eyes focused, and full of sporting spirit.
The Unbeatable Kid on the Pitch
Mika’s childhood memories paint the picture of a determined little cricketer who simply refused to give up his wicket. Reminiscing about his early love for the sport, he shared:
“I grew up with cricket madness. I used to bat for hours without stopping. My only aim was to score and stay not out.”
His neighbors and friends still remember him as the unstoppable kid who could bat endlessly. Mika laughed while recalling the scenes from his childhood:
“No one could get me out! The bowlers would get tired before I did. Many times they used to say, ‘Paji, just get out once… let the match move forward!’”
This “not out specialist” reputation became the highlight of social media chatter as fans reshared his photos with playful captions.
Despite being a natural on the cricket pitch, Mika’s life ultimately followed a different trajectory. Born into a musical family, he grew up surrounded by instruments, rehearsals, and the sounds of melodies. Gradually, music began pulling him away from cricket.
“Cricket was my first passion, but the stage became my destiny,” Mika said.
“Both fields require passion, hard work, and timing. Only difference is, the stage ended up choosing me.”
And the rest, as fans know, is musical history.
Timing: The Common Link Between Cricket & Music
Mika also pointed out that the two worlds share surprising similarities.
“In cricket, the timing of a shot can change the whole match. In music, the timing of a note can change the whole song. Whether it’s the bat or the mic, timing decides everything.”
This comparison resonated with fans who praised Mika for showing how deeply connected he still feels to cricket even today.
Social Media Erupts with ‘Not Out’ Jokes and Love
Within minutes, Mika’s Instagram comments section was filled with hilarious and heartwarming reactions.
One fan wrote,
“Paaji, you were ‘not out’ on the field and now you’re ‘never out’ from our playlists!”
Another added,
“If you had joined the Indian cricket team, bowlers would’ve retired early!”
A widely shared story read:
“Mika Paaji: The original Not Out King!”
Fans celebrated both the cricketer Mika could have become and the musical star he eventually became.
Cricket Still Lives in His Blood
Even today, Mika admits that cricket continues to hold a special place in his heart.
“Whenever I see a big match, the same fire returns. It feels like I’m back on the ground again,” he said.
He genuinely believes that if music hadn’t taken over his life, he might have been playing in the IPL—or even representing India internationally.
A Viral Post That Hit Everyone’s Emotions
Mika Singh’s nostalgic cricket post—with his “not out” stories, childhood passion, and heartfelt confession—struck a strong emotional chord with fans. It reminded everyone that behind every superstar lies a kid with dreams, grit, and unforgettable memories.
Today, the internet isn’t just celebrating Mika Singh the singer—they’re celebrating Mika Singh, the undefeated, the ‘Not Out’ kid who conquered both the pitch and the stage.
