“When we were playing, Dhoni was very close to me. We would be together a lot and our rooms were attached as well kind of. Those days there was a lot of love. These days he has become busy and we do not meet a lot,” he said on Padamjeet Sehrawat’s YouTube channel.

However, Harbhajan Singh also revealed his close friends from the Indian team during his playing days as well. He named Yuvraj Singh and Ashish Nehra, among others.

“In the Indian team, I have a good friendship with Ashish Nehra, Yuvraj is an old friend. I used to stay with Ashish Nehra too at his house. His parents treated me like their kid, it was as if it were my own house. With him, even if we meet after five years or 10 years, it would be like we met right from where we left,” he said.

“Yuvraj Singh is an emotion. I have had fun with him, friendship, whatever he has achieved in his life, he had health issues also but despite that he crushed cancer. Making a comeback like that, only a real player can do it. Only someone really courageous can do that and that is Yuvraj Singh. Unbelievable mindset. Lions like Yuvraj are born only once. Almost every other day we talk also,” Harbhajan Singh further added.

However, Harbhajan Singh picked his favourite IPL team between the Mumbai Indians (MI) and Chennai Super Kings (CSK) after IPL 2025. He played for both franchises in the league.

“The fun of playing was without pressure at CSK. I enjoyed a lot. It was just two years, it was fun. CSK is a team that does not take pressure. It is very peaceful, irrespective of whether you win or lose. Mumbai Indians was very professional. They look at each game as very important, and the pressure was higher. But there was fun there too. The fans that cheer for you at the stadium, I miss that. But I am happy that I played with two champion teams. But if I had to choose one, I would choose Mumbai Indians,” Harbhajan Singh concluded.
