Ziva Dhoni enjoys a day out at Dubai wildlife park

Since Chennai's terrible run in the Dream11 IPL 2020, Dhoni and his family have decided to stay back in the UAE and enjoy some downtime. With hardly any COVID-19 cases, life is virtually back to normal in Dubai. In keeping with their love for animals, Ziva and her mother Sakshi Dhoni visited the famous 'Fame Park' in Dubai. Not open to the 'general public', Fame Park is an exotic animal farm, owned by Emirati Entrepreneur Saif Ahmad Belhasa, that caters exclusively to celebrities.

In a series of photos posted on their accounts, the mother and daughter pair are seen feeding many exotic animals including a giraffe, a crocodile, a lemur and a bear. Sakshi is also seen bottle-feeding an adorable lion cub while Ziva looks on. In a video posted on Sakshi Dhoni's account, shows her sharing a stalk of leaves with a giraffe. Other famous celebrities who have visited the park include Blac Chyna, footballers Jesse Lingard, Alexander Iwobi, Jordi Alba and Messi and boxer Anthony Joshua among others.

MS Dhoni net worth

According to Celebritynetworth, Dhoni’s net worth is estimated to be at around $170 million. Of this, Dhoni's salary from his IPL team, the Chennai Super Kings counts towards INR 15 crore per season (for 2020), with a lifetime earning of ₹1,37,84,00,000 from the league.

Other than his salary, Dhoni earns big from his sports teams. He is the co-owner of the football club Chennaiyin FC, hockey club Ranchi Rays and Supersport World Championship team Mahi Racing Team India. Rated by SportsPro as the 16th most marketable athlete in the world, Dhoni is said to charge anything between INR 3-4 crore for each brand endorsement, according to multiple Indian media reports. He is the brand ambassador for OPPO, Dream11, AMFI, Khatabook, TVS, PokerStars, and Indigo Paints.
