The ninth edition of the Indian Premier League kicked off with a glittering opening ceremony at Mumbai. The star-studded affair saw performances by Jacqueline Fernandez, Katrina Kaif, Yo Yo Honey Singh and of course, ‘Champion’ DJ Bravo.

Here are some of the glimpses, straight from the opening ceremony.

Eight Teams, Eight Captains

Well, before this formal picture, Suresh Raina clicked a selfie.

Bollywood Tadka!

The Gala time started with a performance by Jacqueline Fernandez, followed by Katrina Kaif.

But then... Champion! Champion!

Honey Singh carried the show on thereafter.

Ranveer Singh also joined in.

Then everyone joined in.

The show ended with Major Lazer, an American EDM Group. Another big name was Chris Brown, who was supposed to perform in India for the first time. But Television audiences just kept on waiting for him, and the show ended.

Some even complained that the IPL Opening Ceremony was very boring and here is Unmukt Chand proving that.
