Former India captain MS Dhoni turned Santa Claus for his wife Sakshi, daughter Ziva as the family spent Christmas 2024 with close friends. Dressed in a full Santa suit, Dhoni completed the look with boots and a long white beard. The legendary cricketer added a pair of yellow glasses to add a whimsy touch to the outfit.
In a bunch of pictures shared by Sakshi Singh Dhoni, the former cricketer posed with his wife and daughter in one picture while he hugged Ziva in another. Showcasing a beautifully decorated Christmas tree, it was decorated with ornaments, white flowers, and a star on top and placed the tree beside the window.
Several gifts, wrapped in colourful paper, surrounded the base of the Christmas tree. Dhoni posed with the tree in one of the pictures before his friends joined in another photo.
