Drone startup Garuda Aerospace has appointed cricketer Mahendra Singh Dhoni as the company’s firm’s brand ambassador, the company announced on Monday. The cricketer will also be one of their shareholders, it added.
“(I) look forward to witness their growth story with the unique drone solutions they have to offer,” said Dhoni, as quoted in the company statement.
The Chennai-based startup had recently announced its plans to support agriculture. The company said in April that it was working on a model to sell drones to village-level entrepreneurs or pesticide and fertilisers retailers.
