On Thursday, May 8, the Delhi Capitals (DC) will play the Punjab Kings (PBKS) at the HPCA Stadium in Dharamsala. Two teams vying for a postseason spot will want to maximise every game they play in the latter stages of the competition, so it should be an intriguing matchup.
Famous Bollywood singer B Praak, who is well-known for his classic patriotic and cultural songs like “Teri Mitti” and “Mann Bharya,” will perform during the game.
Earlier today, the BCCI made the announcement. It seems that the purpose of the Dharamsala concert is to honour the Indian Armed Forces for their accomplishment in destroying significant terrorist camps during Operation Sindoor.
“Prepare to sing with pride, Dharamsala !
On a night of patriotism, B Praak brings the nation’s music and melodies that reverberate with the soul of India. Come together to celebrate our wonderful culture with stirring anthems and lovely tunes. An IPL statement stated, “A tribute to the heart of Bharat.”
