MS Dhoni’s wife Sakshi wishes to get a pistol or a .32 revolver. Reason? The star wife feels that very often she is alone at home and travels a little for her personal work, which could prove to be fatal for her life. As per a report by Zee Media, Sakshi explained the reason for being at a vulnerable target and hence wants to carry a weapon with her.

Sakshi has reportedly applied for the license in the Magistrate's office which was then sent to the police for verification. Modalities for the same are being worked on. There were no cases against the star wife. Earlier MS Dhoni has applied for a license which was initially turned down by the authorities.  But later the request was approved and Dhoni got the license for 9 mm pistol.

Dhoni quite often is seen flaunting his shooting skills. The Kolkata Police had posted on their Facebook page: “The great MS Dhoni takes some time off to practice his shooting skills at our state of the art shooting range this afternoon at Police Training School. His accuracy is breathtaking.”

A top Kolkata police official had said Dhoni not only shot in the range but also showered words of encouragement on the Kolkata Police during his visit. "It's great to host Dhoni for the second time. He's an extraordinary marksman and inspired us all," the top Kolkata Police official who accompanied Dhoni told PTI. "It's a state of art shooting range at PTS and Dhoni shot both in the 10m and 25 ranges."
