The management of Indian Premier League (IPL) franchise Royal Challengers Bangalore gifted a jersey to the team of Salaar and the picture has gone viral on social media. Actor Prabhas, who is well known for the ‘Bahubali’ movies, was also present at the success party of the movie and he posed with the RCB jersey. RCB will be looking to win their maiden IPL title in the upcoming 2024 season of the competition and with stalwarts like Virat Kohli and Faf Du Plessis among their ranks, they will be quite confident.

The biggest cricket fest is likely to start on March 22 and the dates of the general election are likely to be announced around the same time, but a top source from BCCI confirmed that the IPL will be played in India.
Brilliant Job Sir

“There is nothing like that, to shift the tournament outside the country, as the general election will also be at the same time. If any state doesn’t want to host the match at that time, with any justified reason, the match could be shifted to another venue,” a BCCI source told ANI.
A sweet gesture from RCB!#RCB #Prabhas #Salaar
