Mahendra Singh Dhoni on Monday was spotted playing football with tennis great Leander Paes and a few actors from Bollywood in Mumbai as part of a charity match organised by Rhiti Sports, the firm which manages the two legendary athletes.
Rhiti Sports posted a photo on Facebook of Dhoni and a few other cricketers along with Paes engaged in a game of football.
Bollywood actors Arjun Kapoor, Samir Kochhar and choreographer Caesar Gonsalves were also among the celebrities who played the match.
Notably, Dhoni had also taken part in a similar charity football match in Mumbai, playing alongside the likes of Nick Jonas and Ishan Khatter after India's Asia Cup win in October last year.
"Captain Cool: MS Dhoni with Indian tennis player Leander Paes in Mumbai for Charity Football Match," said Rhiti Sports in the post.
Earlier on Sunday, the former India captain was seen playing football with Bollywood star Arjun Kapoor in Mumbai.
Dhoni's commitment to football precedes more than the rest as he is constantly involved in promoting the game in the country. He was made the brand ambassador for the Premier League for their telecast on Star Sports.
Dhoni has been on a lengthy break from cricketing duties. He had last played for India in the ODI World Cup in July. He made himself unavailable for selection for India's tour of West Indies in August as he took a sabbatical to train with the Para Regiment of the Indian Army in Kashmir.
It was then supposed to be a two-month break but then he also made him unavailable for the three T20 matches against South Africa earlier this month.
