Mukesh Ambani became the proud owner of Team Mumbai at the Indian Premiere League by placing the winning bid of $111.9 mn. Hailed ‘Mumbai Indians’, the team has the Sudarshan Chakra for its logo and will be ably led by Sachin Tendulkar. However, the Mumbai Indians, consisting of players like Harbhajan Singh, Sanath Jayasuriya, Lasith Malinga, Shaun Pollock, Luke Ronchi…, has been criticized for it’s pick-n-mix of players and is touted to be the ‘weakest team’.
Given the nature of the IPL, teams like Kolkata Knightriders and King XI (Mohali) have received their fair share of publicity and promotion, what with actors Shah Rukh Khan and Preity Zinta owning them (respectively). The Delhi Daredevils, too, have upped their EQ (Entertainment Quotient) by appointing Khiladi Akshay Kumar to be their brand ambassador.
Not to be outdone so easily, the Mumbai Indians may have found a brand ambassador in Hrithik Roshan. At least that’s the speculation so far and close friends of the actor also confirm that Roshan will soon be shooting for an ad campaign and even an album - the music for which has been composed by Anu Malik - for Mumbai Indians. With Hrithik being high on the popularity charts right now and in the actors’ premiere league, his participation in whatever capacity will definitely be a boost to Team Mumbai.
Stay tuned for more updates!!!
