Over a month after Mahendra Singh Dhoni announced his retirement from international cricket, the former Indian cricket captain is all set to begin a new inning in the entertainment industry. After entertaining the nation on the cricket field, Dhoni has turned into a producer with his wife, Sakshi Dhoni.

The legendary cricketer, who had launched his banner Dhoni Entertainment Pvt. Ltd. in 2019 with the multilingual documentary "Roar of the Lion", is developing a wide slate of projects for the next year.



Talking to mid-day, Sakshi Dhoni, who serves as the managing director of the production house, reveals that they have zeroed in on their second offering based on an unpublished book of a debutant author.

"We have acquired the rights of an unpublished book of a debutant author. We will adapt it into a web series. It is a mythological sci-fi story that explores the journey of a mysterious Aghori and is set at a high-tech facility on a remote island", says Sakshi

Sakshi added that the adventure drama explores the genre of magical realism. Currently, in the process of developing the series, the creative team will finalize the cast and director soon. It is heard that the studio is simultaneously working on five other projects.



MS Dhoni is currently in the UAE, leading his team Chennai Super Kings in the ongoing Indian Premier League. While cricket remains Dhoni's first love, Sakshi says the studio is their joint passion.

"When we were developing Roar of the Lion, we thought it was the perfect time to venture into the entertainment industry. We aim to give a platform to deserving talent to showcase their skills along with providing fresh and original content to the audience".

"Mahi will be partially involved [in the production house]. The day-to-day running of the company is looked after by me. We have a process to ensure quality control from the word go. Mahi and I take the final call with our team's inputs and suggestions. Our aim is to produce good stories from our heart", she said as stated in mid-day.
