One of the biggest current music stars in India is King (real name: Arpan Kumar Chandel) kept the magic alive ahead of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 final, as he played some of his biggest hits for the fans to vibe on ahead of the ultimate clash between the Gujarat Titans (GT) and the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Monday, May 29.
King played bangers like 'Tu Aake Dekhle' from the album Carnival as well as 'Maan meri Jaan', which has over 300 million views on YouTube since it was released in 2022.
The IPL's official Twitter handle shared a video of the same on their social media handles.
The song 'Maan meri Jaan' garnered so much attention that he went on to sing a rendition of the same with Nick Jonas, husband of famed Indian actress Priyanka Chopra, and a former member of the Jonas Brothers.
Meanwhile, Nucleya, who was supposed to perform alongside King, serenaded the fans during a rain-soaked Sunday where no action was possible. Nucleya aka Udyan Sagar launched his debut album Bass Rani in 2015, which won billions of hearts.
However, there was another moment during the opening ceremony that lifted the spirit of the fans. This was when the talismanic MS Dhoni walked into the field to prepare for the match. The IPL, once again, shared a video with beautiful visuals of the same.
Meanwhile, during the mid-innings show, star rapper Divine is set to be joined by Jonita Gandhi on the stage for the final of the mega clash.
