Sushant delivers a match winning performance as DHONI

Rating: 8/10 (30 September 2016)

If you are a die-hard fan of Dhoni, this film would unquestionably be awesome for you. Despite its overrated glorification, what makes it a good film is the hard work put by Sushant Singh Rajput in precisely portraying the inspirational story of a middle-class boy from Ranchi who made it big; from a ticket collector to the captain of the Indian Cricket Team. However, this film does not cover any of the hard controversies Dhoni had been a part of. His incompetency with the elder players (Sehwag and Gambhir), rivalry with Yuvraj and the love hate relationship with media and the BCCI board went mostly unseen. But as you see the film from Dhoni's eyes, the movie is quite justified as one hardly find himself faulty for any decisions. All in all, the film has hit enough sixes to keep the chant 'Dhoni Dhoni' alive in the theaters.
