Mahendra Singh Dhoni is easily one of the most loved Indian cricketers in history. When he tied the knot with Sakshi Singh Rawat on 4 July 2010, India extended big love to her as well. Soon, they became a power duo, setting #couplegoals for many, and people continue to enjoy glimpses of Captain Cool’s romantic side every once in a while. Today, on Dhoni’s sweetheart’s birthday, here’s looking at some special moments between the couple, where one can easily tell just how in love our former Indian team captain is…
2 years ago, Dhoni and Sakshi made news after the former was clicked helping his wifey put on her shoes. Sakshi had taken to Instagram to share a few pictures, showing Dhoni out in public, down on his knees, helping her to buckle her shoes without a care in the world about what people will say or think.
Given that he’s such a massively loved public figure, such a gesture in public is not something fans get to see frequently. This drove netizens crazy, as they showered love and blessings over the couple via the comments section.
Sakshi teasingly captioned it, “You paid for the shoes so you tie them too!” Just as we were getting over what a great guy Dhoni is, within a few hours, Sakshi uploaded another set of images of her hubby helping her to put on a bracelet that he bought her. She captioned this one, “You paid for the band so you screw it too.” In came the comments, calling the sweet relationship between the two “couple goals” and “relationship goals”. Dhoni sure knows how to make his lady feel special now, doesn’t he?
Unlike other members of the Indian cricket team, Dhoni has not been very active on social media; but thank God for Sakshi, who occasionally gives fans a glimpse into their beautiful little world.
Once, on the couple’s marriage anniversary, Sakshi posted a beautiful poem for her loving husband. She wrote, “Walking together for 10 years has been teamwork .Building space for each other’s growth has helped us mature. Being mad at each other, at times, made us come closer. Prioritising the matters in life, made us realise the importance of those! Playing fair by not pushing each other has made us stronger. Working together through the ups and downs, made us understand the magic of love!”
From giving in to Sakshi’s quirky whims to being a doting daddy to their little Ziva, MS Dhoni has come a long way in his personal life. Today, on Sakshi’s birthday, we can’t help but remember the saying, “A man’s success has a lot to do with the kind of woman he chooses to have in his life.” Good show, Sakshi! Happy Birthday!
