Former India skipper MS Dhoni, took a cheeky dig on married life by revealing that ”all men are like lions until they get married,” at an event organised by matrimonial site ‘BharatMatrimony’ on Tuesday night.
The 38-year-old added that he is better than an ideal husband because he lets his wife Sakshi Singh Dhoni do whatever she wants.
Dhoni, who is lauded for his great sense of humour, left the audience in splits with his speech on married life.

“I am like an ideal husband…I let my wife do everything. I know I can be happy only if my wife is happy. My wife will only be happy if I say yes to anything and everything that she says,” he added.
Offering a more a serious take on marriage later, Dhoni said the relationship gets stronger with age. “…the real essence of marriage is once you cross 50. Once you are 55, I would say that’s the real age for love. That’s where you get slightly away from whatever your daily routine is,” he said.
There has been intense speculation about the future of the Jharkhand stumper, who has been away from the game since India’s semi-final exit from the ICC World Cup in England in July.
He has already missed the West Indies tour and home series against South Africa and Bangladesh. He will also be skipping the upcoming home series against the West Indies.
