Whenever there is or will be a mention of cricket, it will never end without the citation of that one cricketer, who changed the face of Indian cricket completely. Mahendra Singh Dhoni, a wicket-keeper batsman from the small town of Ranchi, needs no introduction. Over the years, Dhoni perched himself in the hearts of every cricket fan with his stellar performances and earned ‘Captain Cool’ tag. Not just on-field, Dhoni won the hearts off-field too!

For Mahendra Singh Dhoni, it is not only the batsmanship that comes naturally to him, but the man also exudes chivalry and charm. Dhoni met his ladylove, Sakshi Singh in 2008, where the latter was interning at Taj Kolkata and the former was a guest. Dhoni and Sakshi had kept their relationship under the wraps as it was only in 2010 when the world came to know about the lovebirds. Sakshi and Dhoni had tied the knot on July 4, 2010, in Dehradun, with their family and a few close friends attending the ceremony.
A while back, Sakshi Singh Dhoni treated her fans with a glimpse of their Ranchi farmhouse, which will simply take your breath away. 'Dhoni farmhouse Ring Road' is a 7-acre land and Sakshi gave a glimpse of the entrance and huge lush green well-maintained garden. With a few bikes parked in a big glasshouse, the farmhouse also has a gymnasium, swimming pool, park, and some indoor workout rooms. Given Dhoni and Sakshi’s love for dogs, their farmhouse is set-up to be pet-friendly and this spacious house is named, Kailashpati. Here are the inside pictures of Sakshi and Dhoni’s farmhouse:

A few months back, Sakshi Singh Dhoni had taken to her Instagram and had posted photos of her husband, Mahendra Singh Dhoni, down on his knees and helping his wife to buckle her shoes. Sakshi had teasingly captioned it, "You paid for the shoes so you tie them too!" Just as their fans were admiring over what a great man Dhoni is, within a few hours, Sakshi had uploaded another set of pictures of her hubby helping her put on a bracelet that he bought her. She had captioned it as "You paid for the band so you screw it too." Aren’t they pure relationship goals?
Do you know, Sakshi Singh Dhoni is the third most important thing in ‘Captain Cool’, Mahendra Singh Dhoni’s life? But who are the other two? The cricket star had stated in an interview with AOC guest editor, Mark Nicholas, “I love my country. I tell my wife she is only the third most important thing after my country and my parents, in that order. The point is that while I am an Indian cricketer, I will devote myself to that cause. Cricket is not everything, not by any means, but it is a large part of who I am. Therefore, I want to play in all formats of the game and to play as much as possible because before long it will be over. Then I’ll focus more on the Army!”
Stating that Sakshi Singh Dhoni is the ‘spark in his life’, Mahendra Singh Dhoni was quoted as saying, “Sakshi provides the spark I might sometimes need. Jokes aside, she is the person to whom I have a reference. She is both loving and inspirational. Sometimes she travels with me, but cricket is easier without having to ensure her safe passage. One day, we will see the sights together and she says that then, can she please move to number two on the list of my priorities! But for the moment I am here to play cricket. I have been given this honour to play for my country so I want to see it through.” (Also Read: Inside Pictures Of Mukesh Ambani And Nita Ambani's Luxurious 2 Billion Dollar Home, Antilia)
