Shilpa offers IPL prayers at Golden Temple

Amritsar, Apr 10: Shilpa Shetty, Indian actress and co-owner of Rajasthan Royals team of the Indian Premier League offered prayers at the Golden Temple, Amritsar for the success of her team.

The actress was accompanied by other Bollywood stars like Jitendra, Prem Chopra and Poonam Dhillon.

"IPL season is going to start. I have prayed that Rajashthan Royals does good this time," said Shetty.

Since there was trouble getting clearance for the tournament dates due to general elections in the country, the Board of Control for Cricket, India (BCCI) decided to stage the event overseas. Therefore, this IPL season is being hosted by South Africa.

The eight-team league has been shifted to South Africa from Apr 18 due to security reasons and would return to India next season.
