In a dazzling display of star power, the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai became the epicenter of glamour and excitement on November 15 during the highly anticipated ICC Cricket World Cup semi-final clash between India and New Zealand. The event drew an illustrious crowd, including cricket legend Sachin Tendulkar, former English football star David Beckham, and Bollywood A-listers like Ranbir Kapoor, John Abraham, Kiara Advani, and Siddharth Malhotra.
One of the highlights of the evening was Virat Kohli’s historic achievement of becoming the first male cricketer to score 50 centuries in ODI cricket, witnessed by his wife Anushka Sharma. Anushka radiated casual elegance in a printed shirt and shorts ensemble by Dhruv Kapoor, paired with oval sunglasses and bracelets.
Ranbir Kapoor, in promotion of his upcoming film Animal, graced the occasion in a sharp blue suit and black sunglasses. Post-promotional activities, he switched to the Indian team jersey to fervently support the players on the field.
John Abraham, captured in the stands, exuded rugged charm in a fitted t-shirt and jeans. Kiara Advani and Sidharth Malhotra, coordinating their outfits, added their star power to the stands. Kiara opted for a white tank top and stone-washed jeans, complemented by a Celine hat, while Sidharth sported a white t-shirt paired with military green cargo pants, accentuated with black sunglasses and a dark blue cap.
Shahid Kapoor, Mira Rajput, and Kunal Kemmu showcased their support for the men in blue with stylish blue outfits. Vicky Kaushal, gearing up for his film Sam Bahadur, donned an India jersey, jeans, and a scarf, adding flair to the cricketing fervor.
Madhuri Dixit and Dr. Sriram Nene enjoyed the match in their fashionable attire—Madhuri in a white shirt and jeans, and her husband sporting an India jersey and jeans. Rajinikanth and his family, including Soundarya Rajinikanth, were also part of the star-studded audience, expressing hope for India to reach the finals.
English football player David Beckham, on a UNICEF program tour in India, was present to witness Kohli’s historic innings. Dressed sharply in a pinstriped blue suit, Beckham proudly showcased his neck tattoos amidst the cricketing excitement.
