VIDEO: When a 18-month-old Ziva did an army drill

It has been a much-needed break for India’s shorter format skipper MS Dhoni after a hectic and taxing season on the cricket field. Dhoni is certainly making the utmost use of his leisure time by spending it with his family and is also mentoring Jharkhand in the Buchi Babu tournament.

Dhoni’s affection towards his daughter Ziva is well-known. As India celebrates its 70th Independence Day today, Dhoni did something incredibly cute. He taught his 18-months-old daughter the army drill and recorded the sweet moment. ALSO WATCH: Ziva calling MS Dhoni, ‘Mahi’
