He along with his wife Sakshi was in Chennai for the show on Monday (July 10) and received a warm reception at the airport from hundreds of cricket fans. MS Dhoni was also the center of attention during the trailer launch. Dhoni completely stole the show when he took the mic and addressed the audience.

One of the best moments of the function took place when actor Yogi Babu asked Dhoni if he could play for Chennai Super Kings. In reply, the Chennai Super Kings’ legendary captain came up with a hilarious response, leaving everyone in the audience in splits.

MS Dhoni’s response to Yogi Babu’s request:

MS Dhoni hilariously stated that Yogi Babu can play for the franchise as one place in the team is vacant after Ambati Rayudu’s retirement. The former India batsman retired from international and domestic cricket after the conclusion of IPL 2023.

“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,” said Dhoni.

Speaking further, Dhoni also spoke about the Tamil language and hilariously revealed that he has not taught his wife any bad words from the language. It should be mentioned that Dhoni has a long association with Tamil Nadu. He has been leading Chennai Super Kings since 2008, the first-ever IPL season.

“I didn’t teach any bad words to my wife. The reason is very simple, I don’t know bad words in Tamil. I know is some other languages,” said Dhoni.

“When Sakshi came up with the idea and explained everything, I said we are making it in Tamil and its destiny, which I believe in. My Test debut happened in Chennai, my highest Test score is in Chennai, when it comes to cricket a lot of things happened which I am proud of, it happened in Chennai. Not to forget, once IPL started in 2008, I was adopted by Tamil Nadu,” he added.
