The fandom of MS Dhoni is quite well-known and even after his international retirement, fans around India continue to shower him with immense love and respect. With reports claiming that IPL 2024 can be the final season for Dhoni in the competition, spectators have flocked to the stadiums and the cheer is almost thunderous whenever the former Indian cricket team captain comes out to bat. Over the years, Dhoni has been an integral part of popular culture and it looks like he now has a connection to the famous 'Baahubali' franchise. During an event for the animated series 'Baahubali: Crown of Blood' at Hyderabad, director and series producer SS Rajamouli was asked about the similarity between the design of Amarendra Baahubali - one of the protagonists - and Dhoni, Rajamouli's answer was a moment of pride for the Dhoni fans.
