Former India skipper MS Dhoni and his wife Sakshi attended the audio and trailer launch of their production’s debut film, “Let’s Get Married” (LGM), in Chennai. Dhoni, known for his exceptional cricketing career and his association with the Chennai Super Kings (CSK), is now venturing into showbiz. During the trailer launch event, popular actor Yogi Babu, who plays a character in LGM, jokingly asked Dhoni to hire him as a player in CSK. Dhoni responded with a witty reply.
“Rayudu [Ambati] is retired. So, we do have a place for you in CSK. I’ll speak to the management. But, you are so busy in films. I’ll tell you, you have to play consistently. They bowl very fast and they bowl to injure you only,” MS Dhoni playfully replied.
