Former India skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni and his wife Sakshi on Monday cast their votes in the ongoing Lok Sabha polls. The couple performed their duty as citizens at a polling booth in Jawahar Vidya Mandir in Ranchi.
After the vote, Dhoni shared a video on Instagram urging the citizens to exercise their right to vote. In the video, the 37-year-old cricketer can be seen raising his index figure trying to highlight the indelible ink, while his daughter Ziva says “go and vote just like mumma and papa did.”
The veteran wicket-keeper batsman is currently engaged in the ongoing edition of the Indian Premier League and will be heading to Chennai for Chennai Super Kings’ qualifier clash against Mumbai Indians, which is scheduled to be held on Tuesday. The CSK skipper has been leading his side from the front and has amassed 368 runs in nine innings so far.
Several sports personalities have shared their picture on social media platforms asking the citizens to turn out in large numbers at the polling stations.
