'A Battleground Where Heroes Are Made’: SRK And Virat Kohli Kick Off IPL's Season 18
Kolkata Knight Riders Shah Rukh: Megastar and majority owner of the Kolkata Knight Riders Shah Rukh Khan kicked off the proceedings in the opening ceremony of the 2025 Indian Premier League season at the Eden Gardens here on Saturday. With the Indian Premier League (IPL) now entering its 18th season, the timeless actor, who has the expertise of getting the fans on their feet through his decades of work, addressed the City of Joy ahead of the toss.
“It comes of age not just as a league but as a movement. A celebration of sport, a festival of passion, a battleground where heroes are made. We are here in the ‘city of joy,’ Kolkata. So let’s ignite this grand spectacle with the same energy, the same madness, with the same love that is the IPL, the greatest cricketing league in the world. Kolkata! Are you ready?” said Shah Rukh.
In typical SRK fashion, the actor sent the crowd into a frenzy while using the reference to one of his movies ‘Pathan’. “Party Pathan ke ghar pe rakhoge toh mehman nawazi ke liye Pathan khud aayega aur patake bhi layega,” he added.
