Ranchi: Two-time World Cup-winning captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni has filed a criminal case in a court here against two former business partners
The case, against Mihir Diwakar and Soumya Vishwash of Aarka Sports & Management Limited, is related to a soured 2017 cricket academy deal.
Diwakar allegedly signed an agreement with Dhoni in 2017 to establish a cricket academy globally, but failed to adhere to stipulated conditions specified in the agreement.
According to the complaint, Aarka Sports was obligated to pay a franchise fee and share profits, which were not allegedly honoured.
Despite numerous reminders, terms and conditions of the agreement were disregarded. Dhoni then revoked the authority letter granted to Aarka Sports on August 15, 2021, and also sent a number of legal notices, but to no avail.
Dayanand Singh, representing Dhoni through Vidhi Associates, asserted that his client was deceived and cheated by Aarka Sports, resulting in a loss of more than Rs 15 crore.
Dhoni’s friend Simant Lohani has also filed a complaint in which he has alleged that he was threatened and abused by Diwakar legal action was taken against Aarka Sports.
Dhoni, 41, overcame a wobbly knee to lead Chennai Super Kings to their fifth IPL title last year.
He underwent knee surgery in June 2023, and is likely to feature in the 2024 edition of IPL which could be his swansong.
