Chennaiyin Football Club is an Indian professional football club based in Chennai, Tamil Nadu. The club competes in the Indian Super League, the top flight of Indian football. The club was founded in August 2014 during the inaugural season of the Indian Super League. One of the most successful clubs in the history of the league, it has won the Indian Super League title on two occasions, in the 2015 and 2017–18 seasons respectively. The club is owned by Vita Dani, Bollywood actor Abhishek Bachchan and Indian cricketer MS Dhoni. The team's name Chennaiyin FC means Chennai's football club in Tamil where the 'yin' suffix is similar to a possessive 's' in English. The club's primary colour has been blue ever since its inception and its logo is the 'dhrishti bommai', a representation of chasing away negativity and preserving positivity in Tamil culture. Designed by Ogilvy & Mather, an international advertising and marketing agency, Chennaiyin FC logo is a symbol commonly used by every house in Tamil Nadu to deflect the negatives and up-keeping the positive environment and perfection. The concept of ‘drishti’ is not limited to Tamil Nadu or in India alone. The colour yellow, being the lightest hue of the spectrum, represents uplifting and illuminating, offering hope, happiness, cheerfulness and fun, while blue is synonymous to trust, honesty and loyalty.
