Shambu Bose, a die-hand fan of Dhoni, runs the ‘MS Dhoni Hotel’, a small-space eating place which serves Bengali food throughout the day. Speaking in an interview to IANS, Bose disclosed that they will complete a couple of years during Durga Puja this year.

“This Durga Puja [festival], we will complete two years. Everyone here knows this place well and come to eat here. Ask anybody around for the Dhoni hotel – there’s no way you can miss it,” Bose was quoted as saying.

Speaking further on Dhoni, Bose explained getting inspired from him since his childhood. Although he considers it to be an unlikely dream, Bose expresses desires of meeting Dhoni and serving him his favourite rich and fish curry.

“He is like no other. I have loved him since I was a child. The way he is and the way he plays the game of cricket is stuff that legends are made of. He is an inspiration to me.

“I know my dream will never come true, but if I get to meet him someday, I will request him to come to my humble eatery. I know he likes bhat macch [rice and fish curry],” Shambhi aded.
