Former Indian cricketer Mahendra Singh Dhoni has invested in Chennai-based drone startup Garuda Aerospace Pvt Ltd.

Agnishwar Jayaprakash, Founding CEO of Garuda Aerospace, said it was a dream moment come true for him to see Dhoni become part of the Garuda Aerospace family. “Mahi Bhai is the epitome of dedication and I firmly believe that having Captain Cool on our cap table adds tremendous value, which will motivate our team to perform better,” he noted.
