Cricketer Harbhajan Singh is ringing in his 38th birthday today. Harbhajan has the second-highest number of Test wickets by an off spinner, behind Sri Lanka's Muttiah Muralitharan. He was conferred the Padma Shri, India's fourth highest civilian honour, in 2009 for his outstanding service to the Indian cricket team. Having made his first-class test debut in the year 1998, Harbhajan, or as he is fondly called Bhajji, has achieved and broken many international records. His stint in the recently concluded IPL has proved that even at 38 Bhajji is still rearing to go. He was a part of the champion team Chennai Super Kings. One can find Harbhajan on several ads and TV shows; moreover, he has a massive social media following. From his fitness videos to his adorable posts with daughter and wife, Harbhajan's Instagram profile is a delight.

Being a sportsman, Bhajji is mostly on a strict diet charted out by his nutritionist. But, he has his share of cheat days and indulgences too. On his birthday, we have picked out some of his best foodie moments. Have a look:
