Before attaining heights of success, even Dhoni was a common person like us. Right now, he is the pride of India and is doing his best to serve the nation with his excellent cricketing skills. Not only is MSD famous for his batting, but he is also famous for being kind and pure-hearted.
Usually what happens is that after becoming popular, celebs forget their old lifestyle and move on, but no, Dhoni is completely different. He is still in touch with his old friends and has the same respect for them. For him, friendship is beyond status and time and again, he has proved it.
Once again, we got to see a brilliant example during Kolkata’s Vijay Hazare Trophy match; this time, he met his old friend Thomas, at Eden Gardens Stadiums and his gesture was quite heart-warming.
Well, as soon as Dhoni came out from his dressing room, he saw his old friend Thomas standing outside. Want to know who’s Thomas? He is a tea-seller and has a stall at Kharagpur railway station; when Mahi was a TTE, he would always drop in to his stall twice or thrice a day.
Dhoni’s heartwarming gesture for Thomas
As soon as Dhoni saw Thomas standing outside, he immediately recognized him and hugged him tightly. Not only this, he also took him for dinner, how lovely!
Very soon the photograph went viral; Thomas was meeting his special friend after 13 years…
This shows that Dhoni still prefers being down to earth in spite of so much success. After this special meeting, Dhoni’s friend is damn happy and now, he wishes to name his stall after the cricketer.
