India will win the world cup: Shahrukh Khan

Shahrukh Khan is super elated at the win of India over Pakistan in the semi-final match at Mohali. Now, he thinks the momentum is with India to go the whole hog and win the Cricket World Cup.

King Khan watched the semi-final match at his residence Mannat but he will watch the final at Mumbai’s Wankhede Stadium on Saturday.

“We will win the final also. I have bought an extra T-Shirt for that... so I have to go there and watch the finals Inshallah! The kids want to go and see,” Shah Rukh told reporters at Mannat.

The superstar also thinks that by expecting the 100th century from Sachin Tendulkar, fans are putting undue pressure on the Master Blaster.

“Sachin is the peg for the team and I think 85 is a great score. You know, for Sachin Tendulkar you needn't worry if he misses century once. I think we shouldn't put such pressure on him. He doesn't come under any pressure because he is used to it,” Shahrukh added.

A whole regiment of Bollywood stars is likely to turn up at Wankhede Stadium for the final match against Sri Lanka on April 2.

Shahrukh Khan threw a bash for his friends at his home Mannat, with wife Gauri Khan playing the perfect hostess. The ebullient Khan was wearing a team India t-shirt and also posed with a bat for the photogs.

Karan Johar, Sussanne Roshan arrived early to the party while Amrita Arora spent some time at SRK’s bash and later went to join Salman Khan’s party in Bandra. Gauri’s friends Maheep Kapoor, Anu Dewan, Surily Goel all were present at the party. Vikram Phadnis, Rhea Pillai, Sunny Dewan and Mushtaq Sheikh were also spotted.

There were rumours that all is not well between Hrithik-Sussanne and Shahrukh as the couple weren't invited for the impromptu party SRK threw for Hugh Jackman at Mannat. Two days later, when there was a party at Roshans’ residence, the Khans were left out. But after seeing Sussanne and Hrithik at King Khan’s Mannat on Wednesday, it seems there is no such tension between the friends.

Shahrukh to cheer for India from Wankhede stadium










Shahrukh Khan is all out to cheer for the men in blue from the Wankhede stadium. He will be heading to the stadium to cheer for the Indian team with his family and friends. He took a break for the semi-final and again for the final, he has taken a day off from all his shooting assignments.

Shahrukh Khan did not make it to Mohali on semi-final but cheered for the team and enjoyed the game on his TV set with his friends. But he will surely go to the Wankhede stadium and view the action directly from the field.

“Abhi picture baki hai (The game is not over yet)", says the actor.

Definitely, game is not over until India does not hold the world cup in hand.
