Former Indian skipper, MS Dhoni, who forayed in the entertainment industry with a documentary as a producer last year, will now be producing a mythological sci-fi web-series. Dhoni Entertainment, the media company founded by the two-time World Cup-winning captain who had decided to retire from international cricket in August, produced their debut project the docu-series “Roar of the Lion” in 2019. 

Directed by Kabir Khan, “Roar of the Lion” charted the documented brilliant comeback of Chennai Super Kings (CSK), in the Indian Premier League (IPL) roster after being suspended for two years for spot-fixing.  Dhoni Entertainment will now produce a series which is an adaptation of an unpublished book by a debutant author.

The cricketer’s wife Sakshi Dhoni, who is serving as the managing director of the production house, said the upcoming series is a “thrilling adventure”. 

Talking about the sci-fi web series, Sakshi said, “The book is a mythological sci-fi that explores the journey of a mysterious Aghori who has been captured at a high-tech facility. The secrets revealed by this Aghori could alter the myths of the ancient, beliefs of the existing and course of the forthcoming.”

She further added, “We would like to ensure that we execute all the aspects of this universe and bring out every character and story to the screen, with as much precision as possible. Web-series fit our purpose better than adapting it into a feature film.”
