Mahendra Singh Dhoni is one of the finest captains cricket has ever seen, both in his on-field performances and also for the beautiful love story he shares with his wife, Sakshi Singh Rawat. It is the most beautiful story of how two childhood friends turned partners in life through love, patience, and serendipity.
Childhood Connection:
Dhoni and Sakshi met as young kids. Both the families hail from Ranchi. The fathers of both of them were working in MECON. They study at DAV Jawahar Vidya Mandir same school. In that time, they are never in a relationship with each other. Sakshi family shifts to Dehradun after that, and never sees Dhoni again.
Reviving Their Love:
It was years later, 2007, when Dhoni and Sakshi coincided in Kolkata. Sakshi was interning at Taj Bengal hotel, and Dhoni had one day to go before a match against Pakistan. Sakshi was instructed to look after Dhoni as well as his other friends during the stay. From there, their bond was renewed once again. Dhoni, doting over her beauty, requested his friend for the number of Sakshi in order to get hold of her.
The Blossoming Romance:
It was said that it turned into night-time discussions and deep emotional bonding when it was a casual communication. In Sakshi, he found humility and grounding qualities. Simplicity and wit attracted him towards her. Even when he gained such humongous fame, their relationship didn’t become public, which is mutual respect for boundaries.
The Betrothing and the Wedding:
In 2010, Dhoni finally proposed to Sakshi after two years of dating in a very private and intimate setup. They didn’t let out their marriage news in the media and only close friends and family members were called. The couple got married on July 4, 2010 in a traditional setting at Dehradun. Fans and media were surprised to see this secret marriage of the superstar.
Life After Marriage:
Post-marriage, Sakshi became a pillar of support in Dhoni’s life. Her presence has been a stabilizing force, helping him maintain his composure during the highs and lows of his cricketing career. Their daughter, Ziva Singh Dhoni, born in 2015, brought even more joy and full fillment to their lives. Dhoni’s doting relationship with Ziva is often highlighted on social media, showcasing the softer side of the cricketing legend.
