Before Kohli, Dhoni's several current and former teammates also conveyed their greetings to the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) captain.
While each and every message was special in its own way, CSK all-rounder Dwayne Bravo gifted all Dhoni fans a special gift as he released "helicopter song" based on his cricketing journey so far.

In the song, Bravo highlighted Dhoni's humble beginnings, who worked as a ticket collector in the Indian Railways before making it big at the international level.
Dhoni is the only skipper in the world to win all three major International Cricket Council (ICC) trophies -- T20 World Cup, 50-over World Cup and Champions Trophy.

Another birthday greeting that became a hit among Dhoni's followers was of Kedar Jadhav, who wrote a long letter for the CSK captain.
Indian men's cricket team head coach Ravi Shastri also took to Twitter to wish the Indian cricket legend.

Referring to Dhoni as a youngster in his post, Shastri tweeted: "Happy Birthday Youngster! Have an absolute blast Legend".
Dhoni last played for the country in July 2019 when India lost to New Zealand in the semi-final of World Cup 2019. Since then, Dhoni's fans have been waiting eagerly to see him back in action.
Dhoni was supposed to return to the field during this year's Indian Premier League, but unfortunately, fans will have to wait a little longer as the cash-rich league was postponed indefinitely due to the coronavirus pandemic.
