Dhoni has been associated with CSK since the inaugural season of the cash-rich league, besides a two-season stint with now-defunct Rising Pune Supergiant from 2016-17. Currently, CSK is in second place in the points table with six wins and four losses, with one match failing to produce a result. They have a total of 13 points.

Talking about ‘The Elephant Whisperers’, helmed by debutant Kartiki Gonsalves, the 41-minute short documentary movie explores the tentative yet precious bond between Raghu, an orphaned baby elephant, and his caretakers – a mahout couple named Bomman and Bellie – who devote their lives to protect him from poachers and raise him.

The project, which is backed by Guneet’s banner Sikhya Entertainment, beat four other contenders to clinch the statuette in the Best Documentary Short category, making it the first Indian documentary and one of only two Indian productions to win an Oscar (the other one being ‘ RRR’).
