Former Indian skipper MS Dhoni is arguably one of the best leaders of Indian cricket, especially in limited-overs cricket.
Despite coming from a small town of Jharkhand, Dhoni has risen to the summit of Indian cricket on his own. Recommendations of then captain Sourav Ganguly helped MS to hop into the Indian team and there was no looking back, since then.
During 2005-07 Dhoni became the poster boy of Indian cricket as he demonstrated a more agricultural brand of cricket. Apr from all this, Mahi found himself in the middle of female admiration, something he was not used to. As the years passed, Dhoni fell in love and finally married to Sakshi, an intern at Taj Bengal hotel. Today, Dhoni is the father of a beautiful baby girl, named Ziva.
Here we are talking about a few actresses Captain Cool was rumoured to be dating.
Deepika Padukone
Deepika is arguably one of leading actresses of Bollywood and it was speculated that she dated India’s most successful ODI skipper as well. Dhoni had also once self-admitted to several media houses that he had a serious crush on Deepika. He had even invited Deepika to watch a cricket match and during the match, Deepika said, ‘it is flattering’.
Preeti Simoes
It was also been alleged that Dhoni also dated Preeti Simoes, who happens to be Kapil Sharma’s speculated girlfriend. She is the creative director of K9 Productions. The two lovebirds did not make a public admission of their asserted relationship, but there cannot be smoke without fire. Being a shy guy, it was difficult to expect MS to come out with the truth.
Rai Laxmi
In 2009, the south Indian actress Laxmi was allegedly linked with Dhoni but later she called her relationship a ‘scar’. Talking to a newspaper, she said, “I’ve begun to believe that my relationship with Dhoni is like a stain or a scar which won’t go away for a long time. I am surprised that people still have the energy and patience left to talk about it even now. Every time TV channels dig into Dhoni’s past, they make it a point to bring up our relationship. I dread to think that someday my kids in future will see it on TV and ask me about it!”
Asin
In 2010, Dhoni and Bollywood actress Asin were brand ambassadors for a renowned fashion line and soon after that Mahi was was spotted at Asin’s Lokhandwala apartment. His presence in the apartment gathered a large number of eye balls.
