Indian cricketer, Mahendra Singh Dhoni has left the entire nation swooning over his long hair and killer game tactics. He has not only won hearts with his batting skills but also with his down to earth nature and calm mind. Over the years, he had gained unprecedented success and has taken the Indian cricket team to new heights. Dhoni is not just a name but an emotion in the cricket world. We still remember the summers of 2004, when a long-haired man had made his debut in International cricket under the captainship of Sourav Ganguly.

On September 19, 2020, after 437 days, Dhoni finally marked his winning comeback on cricket field as he led Chennai Super Kings to a five-wicket victory over Mumbai Indians in Indian Premier League 2020.

Talking about MS Dhoni and Sakshi's love story, they both hail from Ranchi and were in the same school.

They had met again after a decade in Kolkata at Taj Bengal (where Sakshi was doing her internship), during Team India's stay in November-December 2007. Rest as we say, is history!
