court has issued a non-bailable arrest warrant against India captain MS Dhoni for appearing in an 2013 advertisement which depicted the 34-year-old as a Hindu deity , media reported.
Dhoni, who was presented as the Hindu God 'Vishnu' on the cover of a magazine under the title 'God of big deals', is been ordered to appear before a court in Andhra Pradesh's district of Anantapur before February 25, after apetition by Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) leader Shyam Sunder was accepted by the judge.
The Indian captain was served a notice by the same court last year as well after Sunder filed a petition saying Dhoni had hurt the 'sentiments of Hindus'.
