The Celebrity Cricket League (CCL) kicked off in Bengaluru at an elaborate ceremony with actor Salman Khan declaring the games open.

CCL will bring together Bollywood and the southern film industry to play the game of cricket. For the first time in India, the film fraternities from Bollywood and the southern film industry - Tamil, Telugu, Kannada will come together to play in the T20 format.

This first edition of CCL will see actors from the film fraternity compete against each other in Twenty20 matches. The film fraternities are represented by four teams - Mumbai Heroes, Tamil Rhinos, Karnataka Bulldozers and Telugu Warriors.

While our favourite actors battle it out on the cricket pitch, a brigade of beautiful actresses including Genelia D'Souza, Sonakshi Sinha, Shriya Saran, Priyamani, Charmee, Taapsee, Samantha, Andrita and Ragini will be cheering for them from the sidelines. Making sure there is enough masala in this extravaganza masking itself as cricket.
