KKR owners shrug off loss against MI

Kolkata: It wasn’t a good night for Kolkata Knight Riders on Sunday after the Mumbai Indians sealed a nail-biting last-ball finish, virtually snatching the victory from KKR’s reach. The fans might have left the stadium in disgust, but owners Shah Rukh Khan and Juhi Chawla weren’t too downbeat about the result.

"There is only one positive, we win the final it makes us harder, faster, stronger, better and we’ll be back here on the 29th under the Howrah bridge to celebrate the fact that we won the IPL championship." SRK said.

Confidence is one thing that the Knight Riders have exuded this season and SRK is following suit as always with the Bollywood icon confident that his side can exact revenge in a matter of days. Shah Rukh also took the opportunity to take a dig at television expert Navjot Singh Sidhu who danced to celebrate MI’s last gasp victory and even promised that the Knights would clinch the tie at Wankhede.
"Now we are going to do much better, I saw Navjot Singh Sidhu dance because we lost. I am going to dance much better, I am better looking, I will make sure that we win this now." SRK said.

"We’ve won eight already so we’ll win three more and I am happy because I was missing the matches now we have to play one extra match to play so the kids will enjoy."he added.

Juhi on the other hand believes that the team has done very well this season by reaching the play-offs and is extremely proud of the achievements of the boys. "I am very happy that it was a very close match, till the last over we were very hopeful that we will win. But in the last over something happened and the tables turned.I am very proud that KKR is in the semis, in the earlier years we were nowhere to be seen. So we are very hopeful." she said.

The Knight Riders have shown enough fight under the leadership of Gautam Gambhir to bounce back. And SRK for one is very confident that the Knights will recover from this bitter blow and win the title for the city.

With confidence oozing, SRK even urged the city to support the team and even revealed how he would celebrate if KKR were to win the title on the 28th
