Analysing the mistakes in MS Dhoni: The Untold Story

#2 Endorsements

MS Dhoni after he was announced as the brand ambassador for Lava mobiles

In the movie, it was shown that Dhoni endorsed several brands including Finolex, Lava phones, Garnier etc. Dhoni, the brand ambassador for Lava mobiles, was portrayed in advertisements promoting Lava mobiles in 2008 but the brand was founded in 2009 and Dhoni was roped in as their brand ambassador earlier this year.

How can someone endorse a product even before it’s inception? Here is a tweet from Lava announcing MS Dhoni as their brand ambassador on April 10, 2016.

One more mistake in the endorsement section of the movie was Dhoni promoting Garnier. It should be noted that Dhoni has never endorsed Garnier in reality and the reel-life Dhoni, Sushant Singh Rajput is the brand ambassador for the product.
