Mahi Way! MS Dhoni celebrates successful landing of Chandrayaan-3 in his style
MSD Chandrayaan-3
Mahendra Singh Dhoni was one of the several excited citizens who waited to witness Chandrayaan-3's successful landing on Earth's Moon. On Wednesday, Mahendra Singh Dhoni had his eyes glued to the television like millions of other Indians.
When the historic moment arrived at 06:04 pm IST, Dhoni reacted in a typical nonchalant fashion. India's former captain is famous for his calm and composed demeanour, on and off the cricket pitch. While others around him applauded, the cricketing legend clapped on his thighs. He was wearing a tank t-shirt and shorts. However, his reserved reaction does not imply a lack of enthusiasm. Anyone who knows MS Dhoni will understand that his behaviour during the most grand victories is serene.
Many celebrities have reacted to the successful landing of Chandrayaan-3 on social media. However, Mahendra Singh Dhoni is not very active on any such platform. Here's a video of him watching the iconic event.
