Cricket legend Sachin Tendulkar, along with actors like Ranbir Kapoor, Abhishek Bachchan, John Abraham and Varun Dhawan were at the press meet of Indian Super League (ISL), a professional football league.
The ISL will be played between October and December. During the regular season, each team will play each other twice on a home and away basis. The top four teams at the end of the season will qualify for the finals series. The semi-finals will be played in a two-legged format with the winners moving onto the one-legged final.
Tendulkar along with PVP Ventures own the Kochi franchise, cricketer Saurav Ganguly along with his partners own the Kolkata franchise. Salman Khan, John Abraham and Ranbir Kapoor had won the bidding for the Pune, Guwahati and Mumbai franchises respectively
Check out the photos from the event.
Looking forward to the championship! Hope soccer will grow much bigger in India soon :)
Great pics. Looking forward to the ISL, should be fun to watch. But the presence of Bollywood stars almost everywhere is irritating as hell. Kabaddi, cricket and now football.
I know they are promoting not so popular sports in India, but they can do it in a more subtle way.
Fisrt Pic should prove a good cast for DOSTANA 2
