The opening ceremony of the sixth edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL) was held with what promised to be a glitzy opening ceremony featuring Bollywood stars and international rapper Pitbull.
Flying drummers, Chinese percussionists, fireworks, and some of the biggest film stars in the country, including Shahrukh Khan and Katrina Kaif, performed at the ceremony at the Salt Lake Stadium.
Never before in cricket has any private tournament been as successful as the IPL and it was a rollicking affair once again when the nine franchises locked horns for the coveted title.
