Actor Disha Patani showcased an electrifying performance at the IPL 2025 opening ceremony in Kolkata, enchanting the audience with her dynamic and engaging stage presence. Unfortunately, the thrill was fleeting as the commentators suddenly redirected their attention to the forthcoming opening match, interrupting the live coverage of her act.

Fans left fuming

This unforeseen change has left numerous social media users feeling disheartened and exasperated, prompting many to voice their dissatisfaction on their platforms. The opening ceremony took place in Kolkata on Saturday.

"Can someone send me a direct message with Disha Patani's complete performance?" one user inquired, while another humorously remarked, "Disha Patani was doing great until Jio Hotstar realized their relatives might be tuning in. Talk about a sudden cultural awakening! They abruptly halted the broadcast."

"Disha Patani deserves the same level of excitement that US audiences show for Sydney Sweeney. They cut the TV feed of her dance because it was too steamy," commented one fan, while another questioned, "Where can I find Disha Patani's performance...?"

A social media user expressed their frustration, stating, “Why did @JioHotstar interrupt #DishaPatani’s captivating performance? Such a letdown.” Another user added, “The broadcasters switched to commentary just as Disha Patani was performing... Men: This is cheating.”

One comment questioned, “Did someone from the IPL organizing committee instruct the producer to avoid showing Disha Patani's revealing outfit?”

Following her solo act, Disha took the stage alongside Karan Aujla for a duet. Shreya Ghoshal also graced the opening ceremony with her performance. The event was hosted by actor Shah Rukh Khan, who showcased his dance skills to his song "Lut Put Gaya" alongside Rinku Singh.
