The wait is already killing cricket fans as the IPL 2026 finale is just hours away, and it will see Royal Challengers Bengaluru taking on Gujarat Titans for one last clash. Now, as the IPL final inches closer, reports about the closing ceremony and high-voltage performances are making headlines. Several Bollywood celebrities have been spotted in Ahmedabad ahead of the grand finale, leading to rumours about special performances circulating online.
One of the most anticipated performances of the closing ceremony is said to be by Kailash Kher. The news about Kher’s performance emerged after a video of his arrival at Ahmedabad Airport surfaced. While there is no official confirmation about Kher performing at the closing ceremony, his arrival in Ahmedabad has
made fans believe that he will be entertaining the audience at the stadium.
Apart from Kher, the Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai cast, including Varun Dhawan, Mrunal Thakur, and Pooja Hegde, have also been spotted arriving in Ahmedabad, sparking buzz about whether they have a performance planned for the IPL 2026 closing ceremony. While there has been no official announcement about performances by Varun, Pooja, or Mrunal, videos of them reaching Ahmedabad have generated significant excitement. The three stars have been busy promoting their upcoming film Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai.
Directed by David Dhawan, Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai brings together Varun Dhawan, Pooja Hegde, Mrunal Thakur, and Maniesh Paul in a commercial romantic comedy. The film marks the first time this ensemble will be seen together on screen.
About today’s RCB vs GT match
For the third time in the tournament’s history, the final is being held at the Narendra Modi Stadium. The last time an IPL summit clash was held at this venue, it produced a nail-biter, with Chennai Super Kings winning a record-equalling fifth title. History awaits RCB too. Should they win tonight, the Rajat Patidar-led team will become only the third franchise to win back-to-back seasons after CSK and Mumbai Indians. GT, after a mixed start to their campaign, have stormed into the final and are a win away from securing their second title.
