Hyderabad: Though former Indian skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni does not like talking about his personal life much, still MSD and Sakshi are among one of the most talked-about celebrity couples of India.
In India, where cricket is like a religion, we often witness fans obsession with their favourite stars. And if there is a love interest angle in a cricketers life, then it is certainly going to be the talk of the town. However, Sakshi and Dhoni are not one of those couples who like PDA and media attention.
And maybe that is why even after a decade of their marriage, fans are still invested in their love life?
There are many cricket power couple in India, but no, we don’t come across such stories every day.
And there are reasons why fans and media are so interested in Dhoni’s life, and in Sakshi.
A Bollywood love story?
In India, cricket and Bollywood often go hand in hands. And if a cricketer and a Bollywood star are spotted together, then it is definitely a story worth selling.
Even in MSD's life, there were many link-up rumours with many stars. Though Dhoni did not marry a B town star, his wedding to Sakshi definitely seems like a Bollywood romance.
Well, as per reports, Dhoni was Sakshi's school senior and both their dads used to work together. The duo was childhood sweethearts but separated due to Sakshi's father's job.
MS Dhoni and Sakshi again met each-other in 2007 through a common friend in Kolkata. Sakshi was working as an intern in a hotel where Men-in-Blue was staying. It is believed that the stumper asked the hotel manager for Sakshi's number and when he message her, she thought it's a prank.
Dhoni and Sakshi started dating in 2008 and the duo tied the knot in 2010.
