It was a dream come true for child actors Ramesh and Vignesh from national award-winning Tamil drama "Kaaka Muttai" to meet their cricketing idol M.S Dhoni.
"It was super meeting Dhoni sir. He was very friendly and warm to us. He congratulated us and gave us a big hug. It was a dream come true for us," Ramesh said.
Vignesh said he had to pinch himself to believe that it was Dhoni who was talking to them.
When Fox Star Studios, who presented "Kaaka Muttai", learnt about the children's adoration for Dhoni, they instantly made arrangements for their meeting.
The children along with the film's director M. Manikandan were taken to the D.Y. Patil stadium here to meet Dhoni recently.
"Kaaka Muttai" is about the adventures of two street urchins in their quest for their first bite of pizza.
