After being away from cricket for a while, Mahendra Singh Dhoni was back at his home in Ranchi, drawing eyeballs in his new car — a one-of-its-kind SUV. The decorated former India captain was seen taking his mean machine for a spin in the city recently as bystanders paused to admire the red car and catch a glimpse of their local hero.

Last month, MS Dhoni's wife Sakshi took to social media and had shared a picture of the car on its arrival while MS Dhoni was away, and wrote: "Welcome home #redbeast! Your toy is finally here @mahi7781, really missing you!" According to reports, the car costs nearly Rs 1 crore in India.
