MS Dhoni, the iconic Indian cricketer, has once again captured the attention of the internet, but this time for his love of Candy Crush. A viral video aboard an IndiGo airline shows Dhoni being offered chocolates by an air hostess, while a tablet in front of him displays the popular game.

The impact of Dhoni’s video on Candy Crush was undeniable. The game’s official Twitter page revealed that over 3.6 million people downloaded the app within just three hours of the video going viral. The company expressed its gratitude to the Indian cricket legend for trending the game in India.

It comes as no surprise that Dhoni is a gaming enthusiast. Besides cricket, he enjoys playing popular titles like Call of Duty, FIFA, and PUBG. His fondness for video games was disclosed by Indian bowler Ishant Sharma in an episode of The Ranveer Show on YouTube.

Dhoni’s retirement from international cricket in 2020 saddened fans worldwide. Throughout his illustrious career, he led the Indian cricket team to victory in all formats, including winning the Test rankings, the 2011 50-over World Cup, and the World T20 in 2007.

Not only was Dhoni a revered cricketer, but he also became synonymous with the Chennai Super Kings franchise in the Indian Premier League. His connection with the city led him to become a co-owner of a Chennai-based football team.

Despite his recent knee surgery, Dhoni continues to engage his fans with his charming and unexpected moments, such as indulging in a game of Candy Crush aboard an airplane. His legacy as a cricket legend and his passion for gaming have solidified his place in the hearts of millions around the world.
