In the song, Bravo highlighted Dhoni's various achievements in international cricket. Dhoni is the only captain to win all three major ICC trophies for his country. The tunes of the Helicopter 7 song starts with 'MS Dhoni Number 7' and it will surely get into your head once you listen to the songs. The song highlights the humble beginnings of the Ranchi Boy who made it big in the world of cricket. "This kid from Ranchi, they call him Dhoni. He makes India proud, creating history. Let's say thanks to Ganguly for letting him bat at No. 3. That's where he scored his first century and that was the start of brand Mahi He started as a ticket collector. Now he is one of the greatest ever," go Bravo's lyrics in his song for Dhoni. Mahi's special number-7 "The Mahi song... I haven't completed the entire track as yet. I still want to work on the music and some other lyrics I want to put in there. I was thinking...there is not anyone who has done a song as a tribute to one particular athlete. I was coming up with ideas," Dwayne Bravo told Harsha Bhogle during the 'Cricbuzz in Conversation' chat show. "I want to do something for him. He is coming to the end of his career. He had a great career. He had a great impact on my personal career and also so many other cricketers. "You listen to interviews from other cricketers like Rohit Sharma, Hardik (Pandya) and even Virat (Kohli), they all praise him where their careers are concerned. He gave so many cricketers opportunities. He also won titles for the country. "I wanted to do something special for him. I named the song No. 7. It's his number. It's a special number for him." Dhoni hasn't played any international cricket since July 2019, when India lost to New Zealand in the semi-final of the World Cup. Dhoni was expected to return to action in this year's Indian Premier League, which has been postponed indefinitely due to the coronavirus pandemic.
