Now it's Khan versus Khan in cricket too! As Shah Rukh Khan launched his IPL team Kolkata Knight Riders on Tuesday, it was learnt that Indian Cricket League team Lahore Badshahs will be taken over by his Bollywood rival Aamir.
Kareena Kapoor, who won all the awards this year for her role in Jab We Met , will also take over another ICL team - Mumbai Champs. ICL sources informed that instead of buying the teams, both Aamir and Kareena are going for multiple sponsorships with the Lahore Badshahs and Mumbai Champs respectively.
According to the deals, the Lahore Badshahs players like Inzamam-ul-Haq, Azhar Mahmood and Mohammed Sami will feature in the promotions of the Aamir Khan films in the future. Aamir and the other stars of his film will also perform in the ICL matches that the Lahore Badshahs will play.
"These players will also promote films of Aamir in Pakistan," the source informed. Kareena, who was present in the inaugural event of the ICL, shares a good rapport with Zee boss Subhas Chandra. "That was a big reason for her coming on board. The deals have almost been finalized and we will announce it formally very soon," the source added.
