MS Dhoni has ventured into the world of movie production as he is in Chennai with his wife Sakshi for the audio and trailer launch of their production's first film- LGM (Let’s Get Married).
The trailer launch event of LGM was held on Monday at the Leela Palace Hotel in Chennai. Dhoni has started a production named- Dhoni Entertainment Pvt Ltd and 'LGM' will be their first movie.
The movie is backed by MS Dhoni’s film production house, Dhoni Entertainment, and features starring Harish Kalyan, Ivana, Nadhiya, Yogi Babu, and Mirchi Vijay. Ramesh Tamilmani is the man who will be in the director’s chair for ‘LGM’ with Dhoni’s wife Sakshi herself helping in conceptualizing the project.
Dhoni had received an amazing welcome from CSK fans in Chennai as he exited the airport in the city, with the fans chanting his name and showering them with flowers.
Meanwhile, at the trailer launch event, famous Tamil actor Yogi Babu, who is also a part of this movie, asked Dhoni to hire him as a player in CSK.
MS Dhoni gave a hilarious reply and said: "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 with films. I'll tell you, you have to play consistently. They bowl very fast and they bowl to injure you only.”
In his speech during the event, Yogi Babu revealed that when the film's director approached him for the role in the movie and asked for his dates, he declined since he didn't have dates to give.
But when he came to know that the movie is being produced by MS Dhoni, he said he only signed the movie after the director got him a bat signed by the former India captain.
