Just before the IPL matches, the Shahrukh Khan’s Kolkata Knight riders got a makeover of sorts in Mumbai yesterday. The team was powered with new logo and new look.
The new logo for the team was unveiled by the owners of the team, Shah Rukh, Juhi Chawla and Jay Mehta along with the CEO of KKR Venky Mysore.
The team has also given a new tagline, “New Dawn New Knights”.
During the event, the King Khan said, “They said that the new tagline is New Dawn and New Knights, so I thought they were planning to promote my movie again.”
While answering on the changes in the logo and look of the team, owner Shahrukh said, “The golden color was because I like gold and the black has been changed because I was told that it was not lucky. And last year since we couldn’t make it to the last four I can’t even argue with it.”
On the other hand, further talking to media, he said, co-owner of KKR, Juhi wanted the clothes to be in pink. Shahrukh Khan said, “Juhi’s suggestion was to make our clothes into pink and that suggestion may follow if you don’t win the finals this year. And you can imagine Yusuf Pathan in pink dress.”
SRK also had a trick or two up his sleeve which got the better of co-owner Juhi Chawla.
Talking to media, Juhi Chawla said, “They told me that the conference was going to start at 5 and I was like there’s no way that SRK is going to be on time. So that’s why I came late and then I heard that he was here at 4:30.”
Replying to this, Shahrukh said, “It’s a new dawn, it’s a new knight, it’s a new Khan.”
