MS Dhoni application to trademark the term “Captain Cool”. Which has long been associated with him because of his calm on-field demeanor. He has been officially approved and published by the Trademark Registry of India.
The trademark will be issued if no third party objects or rejects it within 120 days of its acceptance. Which occurred on June 16, 2025. Under categories pertaining to coaching, sports training, and the provision of facilities and services for sports training, the trademark was filed.
In June 2023, Dhoni submitted the application. At the time, the authorities informed him that Prabha Skill Sports (OPC) Private Limited had already registered the trademark “Captain Cool.” Dhoni responded by submitting a rectification petition for the mentioned mark. Claiming that the business was trying to take advantage of his name and the term’s popularity.
According to Dhoni’s action, the company registered in bad faith with the intention of misleading the public and illegally profiting itself by trading under a well-known person’s identity. Following at least four hearings, Dhoni’s application was approved.

The last time we saw Dhoni in play was during the 2025 Indian Premier League. When he replaced Ruturaj Gaikwad as captain of the Chennai Super Kings halfway through the season due to an injury. For the first time in 16 seasons, CSK finished at the bottom of the standings after a poor campaign.
Dhoni received acceptance into the ICC Hall of Fame earlier this month. “Being inducted into the ICC Hall of Fame. Which honors the achievements of cricket players from all over the world and across generations, is an honor,” Dhoni said in a statement. It’s a nice feeling to have your name connected with such famous people. It is something I will always remember.
Dhoni, who turns 44 in July. He has not ruled out playing in the IPL again.
