I.S. Tomar, director of the Kadaknath Murga Research Center in Jhabua, told reporters that Dhoni had initially contacted him through his friends but as he was not in a position to deliver, the former India captain was asked to contact the Thandla farmer.

The Kadaknath chicken meat has a GI tag and is recognized for its delicious taste with black blood and black flesh. It is fat- and cholesterol-free.
