Jungkook, a member of the popular K-pop boyband BTS, has gained worldwide recognition and admiration due to his immense talent and superstar status. The BTS member, also known as the "Golden Maknae", is well accustomed to fame and the high demand for his band’s appearances all over the world.

Indian fans, also known as "Desi ARMYs," have been eagerly awaiting Jungkook's visit to the country, and it appears that their wish might come true later this year. Adding to the excitement is the rumoured participation of makeup mogul and reality TV star Kylie Jenner in the same event.

On Saturday, reports surfaced that Jungkook and Kylie from the Kardashian-Jenner family will be attending a grand celebration in India. The event is expected to draw the attention of high-profile media personalities, and both Jungkook and Kylie are rumoured to be on the guest list. Although details about the event and the other attendees are scarce, the mention of these two stars has already created a lot of excitement among their fans.

A paparazzo, in a now-deleted Instagram post, had hinted towards their potential visit. The post mentioned that the stars are likely to visit India to attend a lavish event hosted by the Mahajan family.

"There has been a lot of speculation surrounding the rumoured visit of Kylie Jenner, the well-known American socialite and media personality, along with the famous South Korean boy band BTS's singer Jung Kook, to India. Reports suggest that they might attend the Mahajan's extravagant event. Well who are the Mahajan's and what is this big bash happening for?," the post read.

BTS in India:

BTS had previously announced their plan to visit India during their Map of the Soul World Tour, but the plans had to be delayed and ultimately cancelled due to the Covid-19 pandemic. The tour was originally scheduled to start on April 11, 2020, at the Seoul Olympic Stadium in South Korea, and the Indian fans were disappointed when the visit was cancelled. Nevertheless, the band members had expressed their desire to visit India, with RM, the leader of the group, even stating their plan to perform a concert in Mumbai.

Not long ago, Jungkook posted a message for his fans following his appearance at Coachella. The BTS ARMY then shared numerous photos and videos of the singer on Twitter. In reply, Jungkook took to Weverse to upload a picture of himself.

As translated by Twitter user @BTStranslation_, Jungkook wrote on Weverse, "Man, I intended to visit Coachella quietly but (people) recognized me right away...ARMYs are incredible ... thank you ... love you ... how did you recognize me, I even trimmed my bangs ...(I took this pic in a hurry to show armys, it would be nice if you would recognize that). (This is how) it feels to be a celebrity, feels nice for no reason) heh..."

For the unversed, BTS is a famous K-pop band made up of seven members: RM, Suga, Jin, Jimin, Jungkook, V, and J-Hope. Meanwhile, Kylie Jenner recently grabbed headlines for being romantically involved with actor Timothée Chalamet. After rumours circulated that Kylie had broken up with singer-rapper Travis Scott, speculations about her love life began to circulate.
