"Marriage proposals are raining on us," said Dhoni's sister Jayati with evident pride.
But the Dhoni family does not have any plans to marry him off. Even the 24-year-old himself is apparently not ready to settle down yet.
"We will think about marriage after three years," Jayati told IANS at their home.
And what kind of girl do they have in mind for Dhoni?
"We will prefer a good natured girl who can adjust in our family," she said.
She added, almost immediately: "There is no girl in Dhoni's life.
"For Dhoni, cricket is everything. We too have become celebrities now thanks to his success. Now people ask us to fix appointments with him.
"But even we find it hard to arrange appointments with Dhoni as he has no time. I sometimes feel bad for not being able to arrange meetings.
The Dhoni family is also receiving scores of letters and greeting cards from fans. Many letters reach the Dhonis even though they do not carry the complete address. A simple "M.S Dhoni, Ranchi" seems enough!
His parents are proud of Dhoni.

"We had confidence in our son. He is proving that now, and everyone recognises his talent," said Dhoni's father Pan Singh.
Pan Singh also wants his son to be inducted in Test matches and his batting order advanced. Dhoni's mother Devki recalled that her son was always on the top in both studies and cricket.
"My son always stood first in his class and now he has become a star in the cricketing world," she said.
