Meet woman behind CSK star Dhoni's Rs 800 crore business empire, not his wife Sakshi, her name is..
Mahendra Singh Dhoni's business empire has grown as Dhoni Entertainment Private Limited in the entertainment industry. The woman behind this success is not Sakshi Singh Dhoni, his wife, but her mother, Sheila Singh. She is the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Dhoni Entertainment Limited. She has played an important role in building Dhoni's Rs 800 crore business.
In 2020, Mahendra Singh Dhoni decided to give the leadership of Dhoni Entertainment Private Limited to his family. He appointed his wife, Sakshi Singh Dhoni, and her mother, Sheila Singh, as joint CEOs. This helped the company due to combined leadership which was in the hands of the family. The duo gave the production house a major success by launching several projects. Who Is Sheila Singh?
Before becoming the CEO, Sheila used to manage her household. Her husband, RK Singh, worked with Mahendra Singh Dhoni's father at Kanoi Group's 'Binaguri Tea Company.' This experience might have given an indirect taste of the corporate world to MS Dhoni's mother in law. Her leadership qualities and partnership with her daughter, Sakshi became useful for Dhoni Entertainment Limited for growth and innovation.
In just four years, the company's net worth has crossed Rs 800 crore. MS Dhoni's wife Sakshi, holds the majority share in the production house. She has also reinforced the family's commitment to the business.
Dhoni Entertainment Limited is a one of Mahendra Singh Dhoni's diverse entrepreneurial portfolio. Together all his business and work has collectively given him a net worth of Rs 1,030 crore. Sheila Singh's example shows how a family's entrepreneurial spirit and dedication leads to success in business.
