In the recent game of Chennaiyin FC Amitabh Bachan and Rajnikanth both went to watch that game. Yes you heard it right, they went there together.
Amitabh Bachchan was, of course, expected to be there to support his son Abhishek who is the co-owner of the Chennai ISL club.
“It has been a fantastic initiative by the ISL and Star Sports; and by all the franchises that have taken part,” he said.
“So far football has been somewhat of a dormant sport in India and quite hidden as far as the interest in the game is concerned. You see so many people on the street (playing it),” he added.
Also Rajnikanth went to the stadium to Support ISL, many legends across India are already supporting ISL and its bright future.
“I have always been a football fan. I am very excited that a league like this has come to India. It should definitely become very famous like cricket,” said Rajnikanth.
“The response is actually something unexpected and I never imagined such a good response but football in Chennai is amazing.” He even wants football to be the second major sport of India.
