“Dharamshala, get ready to sing with pride! B Praak brings the nation’s sound on a night of patriotism and notes echoing India’s spirit. With soulful melodies and powerful anthems, unite to celebrate our great culture. “A tribute to the heart of Bharat,” wrote the IPL.
This tribute for the Indian Army is for their response to the Pahalgam terror attack, which claimed the lives of 26 tourists on April 22. Indian military force launched an attack on nine terrorist camps in Pakistan and Pakistan occupied Jammu and Kashmir (PoJK) across the Line of Control (LOC) during the midnight of Wednesday, and this initiative was named ‘Operation Sindoor’.
For the IPL 2025 clash between Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) and Chennai Super Kings (CSK) at the Eden Gardens, where the latter emerged victorious, the Indian national anthem was played before the match began. All the players and the rest of the staff stood together before the play commenced in order to pay respect.
