IT was really very attractive and colourful opening held in CHENNAI..........
All captains were signing the cricket banners.........
A massive crowd were in the stadium and its a fact that most of us were also watching it while sitting at our homes.Even i was enjoying it with my whole family. The crowd seemed enjoying every moment of the hour-long program.
Percussionist Taufiq Qureshi set the drums rolling with a couple of renditions,and was followed by popular singers Sona Mohapatra, Canadian-Indian Kunal Gunjanwala and Sunidhi Chauhan, who all belted out the hit numbers that turned the stands into impromptu dance floor.
The ceremony was opened by every one's favorite SHAHRUKH KHAN with a massively popular ‘Chak de, India!’ that has almost become an iconic number played at sports arena across the country.
The crowd went wild thereafter when SRK mimicked Tamil superstar Rajnikanth, speaking the local lingo with surprising fluency. He was then joined by cine heroine Shreya Saran for a popular ‘hot’ dancer number followed by a couple of other songs.
I missed that grand opening. Just saw some of the clips on Youtube and they were really interesting.
