MS Dhoni launches camera drone “Droni” with Garuda Aerospace

Former Team India captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni has launched a quadcopter consumer camera drone named “Droni”. The made-in-India camera drone is manufactured by Garuda Aerospace, which is a Tamil Nadu-based drone-as-a-service company, of which Dhoni is also a brand ambassador.

Garuda Aerospace has created a niche for itself by offering drone solutions for agricultural pesticide spraying, solar panel cleaning, industrial pipeline inspections, mapping, surveying, public announcements and delivery services, and has now ventured into the consumer drone market with “Droni” as its latest offering.

According to the company’s founder and CEO, Agnishwar Jayaprakash, the product will be available in the market by the end of 2022.

The product was unveiled at an event in Chennai, which also witnessed the launch of a new “Kisan Drone” aimed at the agriculture sector, particularly in spraying applications. This battery-powered drone is capable of carrying out agricultural pesticide spraying over a land area of 30 acres per day.

Speaking at the event, Dhoni recalled that he had taken keen interest in agriculture during the COVID-19 lockdown. He emphasised on the role of drones for agriculturalists.

Speaking at the launch, Agnishwar Jayaprakash, Founder and CEO, Garuda Aerospace, said:

“Garuda Aerospace is focussed on creating high impact solutions for numerous purposes.  Our Droni drone is indigenous and can be used for different surveillance purposes.  It is efficient, seamless and high quality from a tech and build standpoint.  By providing Make in India drones, we hope to not just become aatmanirbhar for demand of drones but also place India on the global map as a hub for superior quality, safe and secure drone and drone based solutions.

President of Indian Drone Association and Former Wing Commander in the Indian Airforce, Anand Kumar Das said:

“I am extremely delighted to serve on a platform where industry stakeholders connect to gain insights about the drone industry and happy to organize the Global Drone Expo with Garuda Aerospace. This platform will play a significant role in promoting the drone industry and foster growth.
