Being one of the most successful cricketers and captains of all time, MS Dhoni is amongst the most popular athletes in the world. With that, he has earned all his crazy fan-following with millions of fans across the globe.
Even though MS Dhoni remains a very private man, the media and fans have tried their best to know every aspect of his personal life. However, very little is known about MS Dhoni’s family, his parents, his elder brother and sister.
A Bollywood movie released in 2016, titled M.S. Dhoni: The Untold Story, which starred the late Sushant Singh Rajput, decoded the story of his childhood till he gained recognition and in quicktime became an idol for his fans.
A close part of MS Dhoni’s life which most people are unaware of is his sister, Jayanti Gupta.
While her exact age is not yet known, it is believed that Jayanti is about three years older to MS Dhoni. Growing up Jayanti was one of Dhoni’s strong pillars in supporting him in his bid to become a professional cricketer, even during the times when their father, Paan Singh Dhoni, was very reluctant of allowing his youngest son to pursue his dream in cricket.
Jayanti Gupta is married to one of MS Dhoni’s close friend
Like her brother MSD, Jayanti Gupta too is not known to be an active social media user and rarely has Sakshi, MS Dhoni’s wife, posted pictures with her sister-in-law, and she keeps a low profile, away from the limelight that the media and fans could potentially give him.
She is reported to be currently working as an English teacher in a public school in Ranchi. She is is married to Gautam Gupta, who is one of Dhoni’s oldest friends from Ranchi. Gautam Gupta is one of the closest friends of the CSK captain and he had helped him during his days as a state and district player as well.
Meanwhile, the latest news about MS Dhoni is that the CSK skipper is preparing to make his comeback in the IPL 2024 next year. For that, he recently underwent a knee surgery that had troubled him in IPL 2023 when he led CSK to their fifth IPL title.
