Mahendra Singh Dhoni is one of the most celebrated cricketers around the world, and his love story with his wife Sakshi Dhoni is nothing short of dreamy. While everyone is well versed with MS Dhoni and his family tree, not many people know about the family of Sakshi Dhoni and her parents RK Singh and Sheila Singh.

MS Dhoni’s father-in-law and Sakshi Dhoni’s father is named RK Singh, and he also shares a decades-old connection with the Dhoni family, much before her daughter even knew the former Indian cricketer.

Sakshi Dhoni’s father RK Singh came from a middle-class family, and his wife Sheila Singh was a housewife. RK Singh used to work for the Kanoi Group's 'Binaguri Tea Company’ for many years in Kolkata before his daughter married the star cricketer.

What many people don’t know is that RK Singh has an old and deep connection with the Dhoni family. RK Singh and MS Dhoni’s father Pan Singh Dhoni were colleagues when they used to work for MECON Limited, which is a construction and engineering firm.

Now RK Singh is retired, but his wife Sheila Singh has become a leading female entrepreneur and CEO. Sakshi Dhoni’s wife Sheila Singh is the CEO and is in the board of directors of Dhoni Entertainment Ltd, the production house opened by MS Dhoni.

The reigns of Dhoni Entertainment are handled by Sakshi Dhoni’s family, making it a successful production house responsible for many hit movies. Sheila Singh and her leadership have also taken the company to a new height, making it a Rs 800 crore firm.

Sakshi Singh Dhoni’s parents RK and Sheila Singh used to live in Uttarakhand, which is where their children did their schooling.
