Cricket fans around the world are in for a treat as the legendary MS Dhoni, one of India’s most celebrated sporting icons, is gearing up to make his much-anticipated podcast debut. A short teaser clip that recently surfaced on social media has sent waves of excitement through the cricketing community, revealing that Dhoni will appear in an exclusive conversation with popular digital creator Raj Shamani.

This special episode will likely be available on the newly-launched DHONI app, a platform designed to bring fans closer to the enigmatic former Indian captain. While the full release date remains under wraps, the buzz suggests it is coming soon, promising an intimate look into the life of Captain Cool.

"The Dhoni app is about giving that extra to the fans, letting them know about what’s going on in my life a bit more," Dhoni said as quoted in the 42-second clip.

Dhoni, known for his calm demeanor and strategic brilliance on the cricket field, has largely kept his personal life and thoughts away from the spotlight since retiring from international cricket in 2020. This podcast marks a rare opportunity for fans to hear untold stories from the man who led India to the 2007 T20 World Cup, the 2011 ODI World Cup and the 2013 Champions Trophy. 

The teaser clip, shared widely across platforms, offers a glimpse of what is to come. It hints at a candid conversation covering Dhoni’s journey from his small-town roots in Ranchi to becoming a global cricketing icon as well as his latest venture, the DHONI app. This app is touted as a digital space where fans can access exclusive content, including behind-the-scenes moments and personal anecdotes from Dhoni’s life.

More Details About DHONI App

The DHONI app itself is the culmination of a vision that took shape last year. In 2024, a news report disclosed that Dhoni had signed a multi-year exclusive deal with Single.id, a payments-linked offers platform, to launch this fan-centric app. 

Bish Smeir, CEO of Enigmatic Smile (the parent company behind Single.id), shared his excitement at the time, stating,

"We are thrilled to unveil Dhoni. It will serve as an incredible platform for MS Dhoni’s fans and for them to engage with their icon in an unprecedented way."

He further elaborated, 

"Fans will be able to follow MSD, find out what’s happening next before anyone else, collect 7% cashback rewards all over India, and claim free Dhoni merchandise too. I encourage you all to join the waiting list now."

MS Dhoni's Latest IPL 2025 Performance 

Dhoni, who now plays for Chennai Super Kings (CSK) as a wicketkeeper-batter, after giving captaincy to Ruturaj Gaikwad, made his long-awaited return to action on Sunday. 

As the Chennai fans waited for their 'Thala' to bat, Dhoni walked in at No. 8 and played two deliveries without scoring a run. The 43-year-old went unbeaten as Rachin Ravindra hit the winning six to help CSK complete a run-chase of 156 against Mumbai Indians (MI).

After starting off their campaign with a victory, CSK will now host Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) at the MA Chidambaram Stadium on March 28.
