A photo of Mahendra Singh Dhoni went viral on social media in which he was seen playing football wearing a T-shirt with MI logo. Seeing this, a debate broke out between CSK and MI fans. At the same time, Dhoni has also obtained drone pilot certificate from DGCA.
Delhi: Former Indian veteran captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni may soon return to the field for Chennai Super Kings in IPL 2026.
But, before that, one of his photos is going viral on social media. Dhoni came to play football with his friends, where he wore a white sleeveless T-shirt, which had the Mumbai Indians (MI) logo and the names of some sponsors.Dhoni seen in MI jersey
As soon as this photo surfaced, there was a sensation on social media. Fans were surprised as to why Chennai Super Kings (CSK) captain Dhoni was wearing a T-shirt like MI’s jersey. Especially considering the rivalry that has been going on for years between CSK and MI, some Chennai fans also appeared angry.
However, this was just a photo taken during a casual football game. Dhoni is fond of playing football and has been seen many times playing football during warm-ups before cricket matches. It was also shown in his biopic that Dhoni was a goalkeeper during his school days.
In IPL 2025, Dhoni captained CSK after the injury of Ruturaj Gaikwad. But, the team’s performance was very poor and for the first time CSK remained at the bottom of the points table. Now it is expected that CSK will make major changes in its team before the mini auction of IPL 2026 and Dhoni will once again take charge of this change.
Mahi became a drone pilot
The former captain is currently away from sports and is busy improving himself in other fields. Now he has also become a drone pilot. He has successfully completed the Drone Pilot Certification Program approved by the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) with Garuda Aerospace. After this training, Dhoni now has an official license to fly drones.
