The cricket fever soared to new heights as the celebrities enamoured the stands with their presence, adding glitz and glamour to the already electric atmosphere at the stadium.
Adorned in Indiaโs cricket jersey, Kapoor along with the other actors were seen enthusiastically cheering and waving for the team. The presence of these Bollywood A-listers not only added fervour to the match but also captured the attention of the fans present at the stadium.
โShershahโ fame Malhotra will be seen in a Karan Johar action film titled โYodhaโ soon while his wife, Advani, will be seen in the sequel to the Kabir Khan directed โWarโ with Hrithik Roshan and Junior NTR. Abraham who recently witnessed the success of โPathaanโ will be seen in a movie titled โ100%โ alongside Riteish Deshmukh, Nora Fatehi and Shehnaaz Gill.
Earlier, when the two teams of India and New Zealand had faced each other in a major ICC tournament in 2019, the โMen in Blueโ suffered a defeat, ironically, in a semi-final match. Indian fans, this time around, are hoping that this time around they will not have to relive another groundhog day.
