Dream11 has unleashed a dazzling advertisement that has taken the internet by storm! In a thrilling face-off, Bollywood icons Ranbir Kapoor and Aamir Khan engage in a playful rivalry as they cheer on the Indian cricket team. Bursting with star power, clever references, and a touch of humor, the ad sets the perfect tone for the Indian Premier League (IPL). The star-studded campaign boasts appearances from Aamir Khan, Ranbir Kapoor, Rohit Sharma, Rishabh Pant, Hardik Pandya, Jasprit Bumrah, Jackie Shroff, Arbaaz Khan, and others.

Directed by Nitesh Tiwari, the ad kicks off with Rishabh Pant asking Aamir Khan for a photo with Ranbir Kapoor. Aamir quips, “Forget the photo. He’ll give you a kiss instead—he’s like family, come here!” The mood shifts when Khan mistakenly calls Kapoor “Ranbir Singh.” Rohit Sharma quickly corrects him, saying, “Not Singh, sir, it’s Kapoor.” Aamir laughs it off, replying, “It’s practically the same thing, man… both are handsome, well played.” This banter ignites a humorous exchange between the two stars as fellow cricketers and actors attempt to mediate the friendly rivalry between the ‘Dangal’ and ‘Animal’ stars.

The advertisement also features exciting cameos from Jackie Shroff and Arbaaz Khan. As Kapoor jokingly suggests that Khan should hang up his boots, the playful clash between ‘Khan’ and ‘Khandaan’ unfolds. The duo decides to take their rivalry to the cricket field as they prepare their teams for the upcoming season. Meanwhile, witnessing their playful feud, Hardik Pandya asks Jasprit Bumrah which team he will support, to which Bumrah humorously hints at retirement, adding to the comedic tone.

Since its release, the ad has gone viral, captivating fans across social media. Viewers are marveling at the impressive cast and the significant budget behind the campaign. Following Rohit Sharma’s post of the ad, fans flooded the comments, with one expressing, “I can’t even imagine the amount spent to gather this ensemble for an ad.” Another remarked, “This isn’t just an ad; it’s an entire universe.” Additionally, the ad has generated buzz on Reddit, where users have commented, “This ad is way better than a lot of recent Bollywood films,” and “It gives off serious Andaz Apna Apna vibes.”
