The
cine
stars
have
become
as
important
as
cricketers
in
the
Indian
Premier
League.
Shahrukh
and
Preity
Zinta
got
associated
with
IPL
after
buying
Kolkata
and
Mohali
teams
respectively.
Down
South
Chennai
have
roped
in
Nayantara
and
Vijay
and
Delhi
spiced
up
their
show
by
pulling
in
daredevil
Akshay
Kumar
as
its
brand
ambassador.
It
was
highly
ironical
that
the
Mumbai
Indians
were
without
a
cine
star
despite
being
from
the
heart
of
Indian
cinema
industry.
Not
anymore,
the
Tendulkar
led
team
will
be
cheered
by
none
other
than
India's
first
superhero
Hrithik
Roshan.
There
are
rumours
that
the
Hrithik
has
been
signed
by
Mukesk
Ambani's
team
to
shoot
for
an
ad
campaign
and
a
music
video
for
the
team.
The
music
will
be
composed
by
ace
music
director
Anu
Malik.
