Former Indian captain, Mahendra Singh Dhoni, has taken legal recourse in Ranchi, accusing two Aarka Sports Management officials of malpractice in connection to a deteriorated cricket academy agreement from 2017. 

Mihir Diwakar and Soumya Vishwash are implicated in the reported criminal case. Notably, Diwakar is accused of not upholding the terms specified in a 2017 agreement with MS Dhoni concerning the operation of a cricket academy on a global scale. 

According to sources, Aarka Sports was supposed to fulfil its obligation of paying a franchise fee and sharing profits as per the agreed terms, but these obligations were reportedly neglected even after timely reminders.  

Reportedly, the terms and conditions specified in the agreement were not adhered to, prompting the former India cricketer to revoke the authority letter granted to the firm on August 15th, 2021. Despite multiple legal notices, no resolution was achieved. 

Dayanand Singh, on behalf of MS Dhoni through Vidhi Associates, contends that they were deceived and cheated by Aarka Sports, causing a financial loss exceeding INR 15 crore. 

Meanwhile, Simant Lohani, Dhoni's close friend, commonly known as Chittu, has also lodged a complaint, claiming he faced threats and abuse from Mihir Diwakar following their legal action against Aarka Sports. 

MS Dhoni, who welcomed the New Year in Dubai with family and friends, has just returned home. Rishabh Pant, the Indian wicketkeeper-batsman, joined Dhoni during the trip. Dhoni also extended his Christmas celebrations in Dubai with friends and family.
