What is the case?

According to the information, Mihir Diwakar had reportedly signed an agreement with Mahendra Singh Dhoni in 2017 to open cricket academies worldwide. Still, Diwakar needed to follow the conditions mentioned in the contract. In this case, Arka Sports had to pay the franchise fee. Under the agreement, profit was to be shared. But all the terms and conditions of the deal needed to be followed.

Dhoni withdrew the authorisation letter from Arka Sports on August 15, 2021. Many legal notices were sent to him on Dhoni’s behalf but have yet to be successful. After this, Dhoni’s lawyer, Dayanand Singh, claimed that Arka Sports had cheated him. Due to this, they have suffered a loss of more than Rs 15 crore, he added.
