The 2024 Women’s Premier League (WPL) opening ceremony will be illuminated by popular Bollywood actor Shahrukh Khan. This event is scheduled to take place on Friday, February 23 at M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru. The likes of Tiger Shroff, Shahid Kapoor, Varun Dhawan, Kartik Aaryan and Sidharth Malhotra are just but a few among the many stars that will grace this occasion.

Shah Rukh Khan still rules supreme as the king of Bollywood even at his age at 58 making him one of the leading actors in India film industry. Last year he had two big hits Pathaan and Dunki that not only rocked domestically but also made international headlines.

For Shah Rukh Khan cricket has been his passion since 2008 when he became owner of Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) franchise in Indian Premier League (IPL). He has played a key role in helping KKR expand from a single team to having franchises based out of several countries such as West Indies, UAE and USA.

Bengaluru was the venue for an engrossing performance by Bollywood superstars. The Mumbai Indians (MI) and Delhi Capitals (DC) will play the opening game of the tournament. It will be a re-match of last year’s final with Harmanpreet Kaur taking her DC side against MI.

Alyssa Healy led UP Warriorz to the Eliminator stage last season, where they however fell to the Mumbai team. Both Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) as well as Gujarat Giants (GT) failed to reach playoffs last season and are looking forward to bouncing back.
