Penning a heartfelt note on the retirement of her husband Mahendra Singh Dhoni from international Cricket, Sakshi Dhoni expressed her pride in his accomplishments and assured that she understands how the former Indian Captain would have held his tears. Taking to her Instagram, Sakshi Dhoni shared a picture of MSD looking at the orange sky and wished her husband health, happiness and wonderful things for his life further.
Captain Cool announced his retirement in what may be called 'Mahi way' or the 'best finisher's style', via an Instagram post on August 15. Sakshi had then reacted to his retirement video with an emoji of folded hands and a red heart. Sakshi, in her post, stated that Dhoni should be proud of what he has achieved, adding that he had held his tears to bid goodbye to his passion. She also congratulated the World Cup-winning Captain on giving his best for the game.
Sakshi ended her note with a quote reportedly by American poet Maya Angelou - “People will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.” This is in stark contrast to the Kishore Kumar song - 'Mai Pal Do Pal ka Shayar Hun' , used by Dhoni in his retirement video as it roughly translates to 'I am a poet for a while, my story is for the time being.'
