Indians love their lassi, cricket and Dhoni. Indians still do love their lassi and cricket but not Dhoni anymore. Just 3 weeks ago, Mahendra Singh Dhoni was one of the most popular persons in India. All the people in India were expecting to see some magic from Dhoni’s bat. However, Dhoni performed miserably. So, Dhoni has become from hero to villain overnight. So, there is no 'Dhoni Dhoom' Lassi anymore.

Times of India reported:

Team India T-shirts and caps and special menus at hotels for the World Cup such as 'Dhoni Dhoom' lassi and 'bouncer' mutton burger is now a thing of past. Many hotels, restaurants and shops have decided to pull out of all the cricket promotion after the humiliating defeat of the Men in Blue.

A city-based hotel which had made special menus pasted on mini cricket bats has got back to the old menu after India lost. Chitresh Saraswat, manager food and beverages (F&B), Hotel Pride said that people would not be impressed anymore.

Really very bad times for Dhoni. May be, he should just take some rest from cricket. He is not a bad player. He has performed greatly in the past. Yes, he performed badly but I am sure that he will bounce back again. So, it is bad business for hotel owners who wanted to take advantage of World Cup Cricket craze in India.
