The clip went viral instantly, sparking fan discussions and confusion over Dhoni’s debut as an actor. While Dhoni has appeared in numerous commercials and even had a cameo in the Tamil film The Goat, this seems to be his first major on-screen role.
Even after retiring from international cricket in 2020, Dhoni continues to lead Chennai Super Kings in the IPL. Fans expect him to feature again in IPL 2026, even as his possible acting career begins to take shape.
