MS Dhoni Files Trademark For His Iconic 'Captain Cool' Nickname
Last Updated: Mahendra Singh Dhoni has filed for the trademark of 'Captain Cool', with the application was submitted online on June 5 via the Trade Marks Registry portal. Mahendra Singh Dhoni has filed for the trademark of 'Captain Cool," a nickname synonymous with his calm leadership style. The application, submitted online on June 5 via the Trade Marks Registry portal, signals MS Dhoni 's intention to officially claim ownership of the word that has become synonymous with him among fans and the cricket community at large. Why MS Dhoni is Called 'Captain Cool'? Over the years, 'Captain Cool' has evolved into more than just a moniker. It has come to show Dhoni's ability to remain composed under pressure, from leading India to victory in the inaugural T20 World Cup in 2007 to winning the ODI World Cup in 2011 as well as the Champions Trophy in 2017. Is 'Captain Cool' Like 'Air Jordan' or 'CR7'? The trademarking of a name or words for branding purposes is common among global icons. Football icon Cristiano Ronaldo has used the 'CR7" term to create a brand around himself and has used it for his thriving business empire. Michael Jordan capitalised on the 'Jumpman" logo alongside his deal for the brand 'Air Jordan' has shown his business acumen. Virat Kohli 's 'one8' has been used in his multiple businesses across sectors – from clothing to restaurants. After CSK's last league phase match in IPL 2025, Dhoni had kept fans guessing over his future. 'I have 4-5 months to decide, there's no hurry to decide what needs to be done. Every year it's 15% more effort to keep the body fit. You have to be at your best, this is top level cricket. It's professional cricket. It's not always performance you can count. If cricketers start retiring because of their performances, some of them will retire at the age of 22. What is important to see is how much hunger you have and how fit you are. How much you can contribute for the team. Whether the team needs you or doesn't, so I have enough time," Dhoni had said. More to follow… First Published:

📸 Like father, like son: CR7 shows off his muscles with his lad Cristiano Ronaldo is known to proudly show off his physical form even at 40 years old. What many don't know: He allegedly has a twin now. Okay, his son Cristiano Júnior – who will turn 15 tomorrow – may not quite match his father's muscles yet. And yet, he's looking more and more like his dad physically. Or as CR7 himself wrote in a post on 'X': "Like father, like son.' Advertisement By the way: Just a few weeks ago, the junior made his debut for Portugal's U15 team. Will we maybe even get to admire two Ronaldos on the field together in a few years?
