The brand has been named 'Seven' after the star Indian batsman's jersey. '7' is Dhoni's lucky number and the veteran wicketkeeper-batsman sports it on each of his jersey.

Dhoni, who is most successful Indian captain across all formats, was present at the launch of the first store at a mall in Ranchi. A sea of fans had gathered at the mall during the launch to get a glimpse of the local boy who is an inspiration to millions.
