Against the backdrop of a cricket loving nation gearing up to welcome the fourth season of India’s most extravagant cricketing bonanza the IPL-4, Nokia India announced it has renewed its principal sponsorship contract of Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR), the team co-owned by Bollywood star Sharukh Khan.

Nokia and Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) continue to strengthen their association and shared commitment to make IPL more exciting and engaging for Indian cricket fans.

Nokia and KKR have announced a new promotional campaign dubbed as ” KKR Tension Mat Le Yaar ” will be aired on all digital and mobile mediums for the fans to interact with the team by April 5.

In the new campaign ” KKR Tension Mat Le Yaar ” Sharukh Khan will be seen shaking a leg with Latin singer Shakira in a new music Video for the KKR team. The song has been scored by Salim-Sulaiman and sung by Pakistani singer Rahat Fateh Ali Khan.

Santu Sovan Mandal :@rajiev Yes, Sourav Ganguly is the man who is the prey of conspiracy by certain people. This indian team is the brainchild of him. Dhoni, Raina, Bhajji, Yuvi, Sehwag is the discovery of his. It’s our shame that we can’t give him a sweet happy retirement. Today India has won the world cup. But it’s very sad to see that nobody is talking even a word for sourav, the champion of champions. But it’s we, the common people of india, will remember him forever for what he has done for this team. ‘The prince of calcutta’, we love you.

All the players mentioned by you is not discovered by sourav, but INDIAN TEAM SELECTOR discovered them on the basis of their performence.Now sovrav is out of kkr, i am 100% sure kkr will go to semis.

You r right dude.Sourav ko nikala ab kkr ka luck jarur click karega.IPL k liye Sourav noooo need hain.

sourav nahi chahiye lekin dravid aur laxman jaise player chahiya,,,,wah wah wah……..

IPL is a money making event for some like filmstars,businessmen,cricket board and most importantly SHARAD PAWAR.We indians are just wasting our time and money by buying costly tickets for nothing.This event does not inculcate a sense of indianess but creates attitude of regionalism in the peoples mind.
