Chennai, 10 May 2019: Boost, one of GSK’s leading brands in the Health Food Drinks category, honoured its brand ambassador MS Dhoni by creating a massive & unique sand sculpture. This was a tribute to Dhoni’s contribution to cricket and his long-standing relationship with the brand. The sand sculpture was designed and inaugurated by renowned sand artist Manas Sahoo at Elliot’s beach, Chennai.

MS Dhoni, who is also known as ‘Thala’, has always encouraged young players to play a bigger game, be it with his leadership style or his inspiring attitude on the cricket ground. The sand sculpture is a befitting tribute to such an inspiring sportsperson. Crowds gathered around the venue in big numbers to join Boost in this tribute to their hero.
