Rajeev Shukla's INTERVIEW to Times of India:
What is the line-up for the opening ceremony?
The theme is No. 6 because this is IPL's sixth edition. We're planning to organise a roadshow before the opening ceremony in Kolkata. We are trying to rope in Sourav Ganguly, who could lead all the team captains during the roadshow. We're in touch with the state government and hopefully, we'll get permission for the event. There are six elements in the opening ceremony. The first segment will be Indianness, then the cheerleaders, international artists, Bollywood show, captains emphasizing on the spirit of cricket and then the magic of cricket.
