Ajay Devgn cheers for Punjab Kings

On Tuesday, Ajay took to Instagram and shared a video cheering for Preity Zinta's team, Punjab Kings, offering them a spirited piece of advice as Jassi from Son of Sardaar. In the video, he was heard saying in Punjabi, "One piece of advice from a Sardar to Punjab Kings: Childhood pants don’t fit in youth, and not every no-ball gives a free hit. The one who hunts in a crowd is not a lion, but a thug. And when the opponent is strong, defeating them brings a different kind of joy. So, never miss a catch — practise holding the ball. When you hit sixes, you’ll wipe the smile off the other team’s faces. And if their faces fall, just say, ‘Oye paaji, at least smile once in a while.’ Do the impossible. Remember — you just have to win. All the best."

Kannada superstar Shiva Rajkumar expressed his support for RCB and said, “RCB is going to play the IPL final with PBKS. I wish them all the best. My heart will always be with RCB. RCB should rock — and this time, the cup is ours. Good luck. I pray to God to give RCB a lot of strength. Love you, RCB."

Earlier, SS Rajamouli also weighed in on the RCB vs PBKS final and wrote on X, "Iyer guiding Bumrah’s and Boult’s yorkers to the third man boundary… Exquisite… This man leads Delhi to a final… and is dropped… Leads Kolkata to a trophy… dropped… Leads a young Punjab to the finals after 11 years. He deserves this year’s trophy too…On the other hand, it is Kohli… who is performing year on year… compiling thousands of runs. The final frontier for him… He deserves it too. Whatever the result… it’s going to be a heartbreak…”
