‘More Than Just A Jersey’: Shah Rukh Khan As Kolkata Knight Riders Drops First Look Of New IPL 2026 Jersey

Shah Rukh Khan has reacted to the new jersey for the 2026 season of the Indian Premier League (IPL) after his franchise, Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR), shared the first look on social media.

The reveal came through a short promotional video that quickly caught fans’ attention, with many praising the tagline featured in the clip, saying, “Waah kya line hai.”

While the jersey features a few design changes, the team has retained its iconic purple base colour. The jersey is complemented by gold stripe running along the front and back, maintaining KKR’s signature purple-and-gold aesthetic.

SRK Calls It ‘More Than Just A Jersey’

Reposting the video shared by KKR, Shah Rukh Khan described the jersey as symbolic of the team’s legacy.

“It’s more than just a jersey. These are our Lines Of Legacy,” he wrote.

Shah Rukh Khan co-owns the Kolkata Knight Riders franchise, which has won the Indian Premier League title three times so far – first in 2012, then in 2014, and most recently in 2024.
