With a view to celebrate the IPL summer window, the campaign features cricket legend, MS Dhoni, in a brand-new avatar. Directed by VasanBala, a well-known director and screenwriter, the campaign film showcases MS Dhoni as a bus driver, who has stopped the bus in the middle of a very busy road. The traffic policeman arrives at the scene and questionsDhoni’s actions, to which Dhoni responds that they are watching the Super over of an intense IPL game. The traffic policeman treats this as a normal occurrence during IPL and drives away reinstating the fact that this fandom is normal for IPL matches.
