New Delhi: It’s been over a month since the former Indian skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni announced his retirement from international cricket. However, it looks like now Dhoni is all set to chart his new innings in the entertainment industry as a producer. Yes, you heard it right. Dhoni, who had launched his banner Dhoni Entertainment in 2019 with ‘Roar of the Lion’ document series in 2019, is all set to produce its next project, which is an adaptation of an unpublished book by a debutant author.
Dhoni’s wife Sakshi Singh Dhoni, who is also the managing director of the production house, said the upcoming series is a ‘thrilling adventure’. “The book is a mythological sci-fi that explores the journey of a mysterious Aghori who has been captured at a high-tech facility. The secrets revealed by this Aghori could alter the myths of the ancient, beliefs of the existing and course of the forthcoming,” said Sakshi.
“We have acquired the rights of an unpublished book of a debutant author. We will adapt it into a web series. It is a mythological sci-fi story that explores the journey of a mysterious Aghori and is set at a high-tech facility on a remote island,” she added. The adventure drama will explore the genre of magical realism, she added.

We aim to give a platform to deserving talent to showcase their skills along with providing fresh and original content to the audience. Mahi will be partially involved in the production house. The day-to-day running of the company is looked after by me. We have a process to ensure quality control from the word go. Mahi and I take the final call with our team’s inputs and suggestions. Our aim is to produce good stories from our heart.”
