But before the first game begins, the tournament will kick off with a dazzling opening ceremony that promises to be an unforgettable experience.
The opening ceremony will feature a star-studded lineup of performers, including Bollywood actors Shraddha Kapoor and Varun Dhawan. Shraddha Kapoor, who is riding high on the success of her horror comedy Stree 2, will take to the stage to deliver a dazzling performance. She will be joined by Varun Dhawan, who had a cameo appearance in Stree 2 and was last seen in Baby John, a remake of the Tamil hit Theri starring Vijay. Although Baby John didn't quite live up to expectations at the box office, Varun Dhawan's fans are eagerly awaiting his performance at the IPL opening ceremony.
