Bollywood is heading to South Africa for the Indian Premier League (IPL) matches, so expect to see the topmost names grace the front benches. Headed to Cape town are Shah Rukh Khan, Shilpa Shetty, Preity Zinta, Akshay Kumar and Hrithik Roshan.

Akshay is also in South Africa for work – he’s shooting for his program Fear Factor II. Meanwhile, Hrithik who was recently in the country for a TV commercial shoot is reportedly more than eager to return to the beautiful land. Preity, Shah Rukh and Shilpa are there to support and cheer for their respective teams.

In the bidding wars last year, Shah Rukh bagged the Kolkata team for a huge sum of $75.9 million (approx Rs.296 crores), along with Juhi Chawla and her husband Jai Mehta. Preity Zinta along with beau Ness Wadia became proud owners of the Mohali team, and Shilpa Shetty owns Rajasthan Royals.
