However, much to their disappointment, the live performance by Anirudh Ravichander—one of India’s most popular music composers—was not broadcasted for fans watching from home.
Exclusive stadium experience only
The Chennai Super Kings management decided that Anirudh’s performance would be exclusive to fans inside the stadium, leaving those watching on television and digital platforms unable to witness the electrifying event. This decision has sparked reactions from fans on social media, many of whom were hoping to enjoy the spectacle remotely.
Known for his blockbuster hits, Anirudh was set to deliver a high-energy performance to amp up the atmosphere at Chepauk, CSK’s fortress. However, with no live telecast, only the lucky fans at the stadium got to witness the special moment.
CSK vs MI: A battle of the five-time champions
Despite the disappointment over the non-broadcasted performance, the excitement for the match remains high as two of the most successful IPL franchises, CSK and MI, face off once again. Both teams have won five IPL titles each, making this a rivalry of equals.
Suryakumar Yadav to lead MI in Hardik’s absence
In a significant development, Suryakumar Yadav will captain Mumbai Indians for this match as Hardik Pandya serves a one-match ban due to a slow over-rate in MI’s previous game.
With a blockbuster clash ahead, the atmosphere at Chepauk is electric, even if Anirudh’s performance wasn’t shared with fans worldwide.
