Lt Colonel MS Dhoni to write a foreword for a book 'Shoot. Die. Fly.'

Despite giving up his captaincy last year, former Indian skipper MS Dhoni remains a mercurial presence on and off the field. Now, he has been roped in by Penguin Random House to pen a foreword for Shoot. Die. Fly. by Rachna Bisht Rawat. The book, targeted at young readers, celebrates India's armed forces with 21 stories of valour by brave men and women.

A source from the publisher told this diarist that Lt Colonel Dhoni was the obvious choice since he remains an icon, and at the same time, is also a part of the Indian Army in a certain capacity (as territorial officer). He was also excited to come on board as it meant reaching out to the country's youth to consider a career in the armed forces. Well played, again.
