Bollywood's love for cricket is a known fact.

On Saturday, Bollywood stars came in to show their support for the Men in Blue as they took on Sri Lanka in the ICC Cricket World Cup finals at Wankhede stadium in Mumbai. India eventually scripted history when they beat the Lankans and lifted the prized trophy.

South superstar Rajnikanth was seen with his daughter Soundarya and actor Aamir Khan in the gallery during the match. Aamir's wife was also seen in the stands.
