The film stars Sushant Singh Rajput, Kiara Advani, Disha Patani, Bhumika Chawla, and Anupam Kher and is directed by Neeraj Pandey. It was first released in 2016 and grossed Rs. 133 crore at the domestic box office.
‘MS Dhoni: The Untold Story’ has been an extraordinarily special film for both Star Studios and Indians all across the world, depicting the remarkable path of our most successful cricket captain. “The re-release aims to give his fans across the country another opportunity to relive cricket’s most magical moments on the big screen,” said Bikram Duggal, head of studios at Disney Star.
Last year, Fox Star Studios, a division of Walt Disney Company India, renamed as Star Studios to support films for both theatrical and direct-to-digital release. Fox Star Studios has previously produced blockbusters including as M.S. Dhoni: The Untold Story, Sanju, Neerja, and Chhichhore.
