The Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) emerged victorious in the much-anticipated IPL 2024 finals, defeating the Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) in Chennai. The win marked a special occasion, not just for the team and its fans, but also for co-owner Shah Rukh Khan. Just days after recovering from a heatstroke, Shah Rukh Khan, along with his family and friends, cheered on KKR from the stands, his energy mirroring the team's dominant performance on the field. This victory secured the Knight Riders' third IPL championship title, solidifying their position as one of the league's most successful franchises.

Taking to Instagram to celebrate the win, Shah Rukh Khan shared a heartfelt message dedicated to the team. He addressed them as "his boys, his team, his champions," acknowledging their collective effort in achieving victory.

His message highlighted the importance of teamwork. He went on to praise the contributions of various individuals who played a crucial role in the team's success. This included the guidance of former KKR captain Gautam Gambhir, the dedication of head coach Chandrakant Pandit, and the leadership of current captain Shreyas Iyer. He wrote, “To my boys…. my team…. my champs….”these blessed candles of the night” …. My Stars…of KKR.”

He continued, “I cannot do a lot of things and you cannot do them all either…but together we manage most of them. That’s what @KKRiders stood for. Simply being together. Beyond the ability and guidance of @gautamgambhir55….the earnestness of Chandu, the love of abhisheknayar & leadership of @shreyasiyer96… the dedication of Tendo, @bharathi__arun @1crowey & @leamonnathan… this team is built on no hierarchy just pure respect for collaboration.”

Shah Rukh Khan emphasized the importance of "pure respect for collaboration" within the team. He commended the players, both young and experienced, for their understanding of Gambhir's vision, “GG said if u can’t support a single vision as a team….u are leading to a division in the team. Each player understood that. Young and old. The Trophy is not a testament of having the best players in the team….but a proof of each player being the best for the team. Boys you are all made of Star stuff!! Love you all and don’t let the dancing stop! Also, so happy and thankful for each and every KKR fan and I hope all around the world youngsters learn that Tough times don’t last….Finally Tough and Happy teams do! Korbo…Lorbo…Jeetbo….Always.
