MS Dhoni's 'Captain Cool' Trademark Application Accepted
MS Dhoni, the famous cricketer, is trying to trademark his nickname 'Captain Cool' for sports-related businesses.
His application was accepted, which means he could potentially use the name for sports services if there are no objections.
However, another company registered the name, leading to a legal challenge.
Dhoni argues that the company is trying to exploit his brand for their own benefit.
The trademark application was filed in June 2023, and the acceptance was on June 16, 2024.
If no one objects within 120 days, he can use the name for sports services.
The application was accepted after at least four hearings.
