maniac Posted October 22, 2021 Share Posted October 22, 2021 2 minutes ago, Mariyam said: Let me answer that for you. Ranvir and Deepika will attract a lot of eyeballs and followers to the league. People who don't watch cricket otherwise. Heck, I started watching cricket coz of the IPL. There is a huge demography that has yet to be tapped in. And a marquee owner makes that easy. Also it's easy for a franchise to get brand/title sponsorship if these two are the faces they can use. Also, why is Deepika a clown? If people tune into watch a game of cricket for Ranveer and Deepika, then I don’t know if those eyeballs will add anything positive to the league.

poyzzplaidwell Posted October 22, 2021 Share Posted October 22, 2021 I personally want Manchester United owners to get one team. Great profile and it will generate buzz all accross the world for IPL. Added bonus will be the rona dhona of Green Ghetto and La-Whore-EE anchors. nevada 1 Link to comment

The sources in the article are dodgy. Won't be surprised if it is just a PR plant like the blinds or even fake news by the media. IPL nowadays has become way bigger than Bollywood among the youth. Certainly more respected. BW has to compete with other regional industries, Hollywood, Web series, etc. IPL has no competition in India. Link to comment

BCCI has tough clauses for foreigners. The Phoren organizations/individuals must have very good "other" investments in india to have a IPL team. Link to comment

Get over yourself, lol Of course I do. Most posters here including myself pay for subscriptions to watch a good game of cricket and cricketers not celebrities. India wins or looses we keep coming back and don’t give up. So speaking for myself I can say with full confidence that I definetely add more value following cricket than some moron who tunes in to watch Deepika and Ranveer in a cricket match. If someone spends their money to see them in a movie or on a Tv show , I don’t have a problem because it doesn’t disturb me in any which way . New guy 1 Link to comment

However he was over the hill by then however it was Sachin who kept me as a fan. so it was cricketers and gameplay. Not any gimmick that attracts the casual fan.

The real hypocrisy to these kanjars has started coming out in last few years only. Diwali par inke Kutte cry karte hai.. But Eid ke time inko Bakre ke Ghosht share karne hain.. Good these hypocrites are exposed for low live drug infused scums they are. They have a set agenda, to shame Hindus and make them feel guilty about their customs, culture etc. On the other hand, thousands of innocent animals are slaughtered and they keep quiet, But PETA's messages on Diwali are shared by these scums. India is a Hindu Majority country. Was a Hindu Majority country 6000 years before, Will Remain a Hindu Majority Country for next 6000 years and We shall always celebrate the heritage of our local religions like Hinduism/Sikhism/Jainism rather then imported religions.

The new generation has a million distractions. At that time we were like current bangla fan level with cricket tied to patriotism, with very few avenues for entertainment and without even internet or social media or smart phones For eg, Girls/women etc can come for them and stay for cricket Edited October 22, 2021 by New guy Mariyam 1 Link to comment

Lying and taking things out of context doesnt mean any of that is true I love how you fall for every dumb meme, propaganda and things taken out of cobtext and then spread harred Hinduism dominates Bollywood and its movie industry today . Its the easiest thing in the world today to take one screenshot or make a meme out of context and feed it so that people like you start foaming in the mouth Imagine being so dumb you fall for such obvious agenda and believing an entire industry suddenky hates hinduism Our enemies spreading these lies must love gullible people like you, you are doing their job for free Edited October 22, 2021 by New guy Link to comment

neel roy Posted October 22, 2021 Share Posted October 22, 2021 We must remember bollywood and cricket are the two things which have the most eyeballs in India. Nothing wrong in that. In USA it’s hollywood, NBA, MLB, NFL. Whats important is being pragmatic and accepting market realities. Live sports are always fun as it is not scripted and anything can happen..movies on the other hand is scripted but nobody knows itll be a hit or flop so there’s always uncertainty. Also in both spheres its the skill of players and skill of directors, actors, cameraman, editor which comes into play.. Link to comment
AuxiliA Posted October 22, 2021 Share Posted October 22, 2021 Bollywood has been hated for a long time not just recently. They were slammed for stealing scripts and music, glorifying fair skin/demeaning dark skin, propagating awful racial/regional stereotypes, connections with the underworld, money laundering, casting couch, sexist/misogynistic content and most importantly making brainless movies which makes India a laughing stock on International level. Funny how some people and media in recent years have started projecting them as social reformers with a heart of gold. Truth is they are motivated by Fame and Money not public welfare. They are no different from those 'crony' Capitalists and corrupt Politicians. Link to comment
