Akshay Kumar, Abhishek Bachchan and Riteish Deshmukh are sports enthusiasts and have keen interest in badminton. While Akshay co-owns Mumbai Rockets, Abhishek owns the franchisee of Jaipur Pink Panthers in Star Sports Pro Kabaddi League and also co-owns Chennaiyin FC in Hero Indian Super League.
On the occasion of the grand closing ceremony, Akshay Kumar, Jr. Bachchan and Riteish will play a 15-point game against each other in front of the sport-loving crowd at the DDA Badminton and Squash Stadium, Siri Fort.
Post their own game, they will then enjoy the finals of the Premier Badminton League 2016 cheering the players.
Akshay said: "It will be a great experience playing against Abhishek Bachchan and Riteish Deshmukh in front of International Badminton players and Delhi badminton fans. The Star Sports PBL 2016 is a huge success in the country as it has drawn attention from all corners and motivated the young generation. Abhishek and Riteish are big sports enthusiasts and play various sports. I am eagerly waiting for the badminton match against them in Delhi."
