Dhoni has a huge fan-base in Chennai, after leading the side to two IPL titles. Apart from former India skipper, another person, who rules over the hearts of fans in Chennai, is the most celebrated actor in the country, Rajnikanth.

The superstar recently attended an event in the city, where he was asked to pick his favourite cricketer. Rajnikanth, without a moment’s pause, took Dhoni’s name as the crowd erupted in joy. Rajnikath, as shown in the video below, named Dhoni as his current favourite cricketer.

Dhoni, who had visisted the megastar during the promotional activities of 'MS Dhoni: The Untold Story, had paid a tribute of sorts for 'The One and Only THALAIVAR' in 2016, trying to copy his pose.

While Dhoni did not lead Rising Pune Supergiant in IPL 2017, the Captain Cool, donning yellow jersey, will lead CSK on IPL comeback.

The fans will be hoping that the 36-year-old gets his hands on the trophy which would be icing on the cake after two years absence from the cash rich league.
