Ranveer is a self-confessed fan of MS Dhoni and had once worked as an assistant director on a commercial starring Dhoni despite being injured. “I was about 22 years old, working as an assistant director. I took up this particular job only because the ad film featured the one & only MS Dhoni.”

“MSD is one of the greatest sportsmen to have ever lived. I’m lucky to have witnessed his playing career in my lifetime. A paragon of excellence. An icon of the sport. My hero forever. Thank you Mahi Bhai for bringing glory to our great nation and filling a billion hearts with pride,” Ranveer had written in the post after Dhoni announced his retirement.

Ranveer is currently awaiting the release of Kabir Khan directorial sports drama 83. Based on India’s first World Cup win in 1983, Ranveer will be seen playing the cricket team’s then captain Kapil Dev. While, Deepika Padukone is playing Kapil Dev’s wife Romi Bhatia. 83, also starring Pankaj Tripathi, Tahir Raj Bhasin, Saqib Saleem and Amy Virk, currently does not have a release date.

The actor has a slew of interesting films in his kitty, including Rohit Shetty’s Cirkus, YRF’s Jayeshbhai Jordaar and
