However Duo haven’t signed the deal with kochi team. Kochi team is an Indian Premier League team based in the city of Kochi, a major seaport located on the south-west coast of India by the Arabian Sea, in Ernakulam district of the state of Kerala. The team was one of two new franchisees added to the Indian Premier League (IPL) for the 2011 season, alongside the Sahara Pune Warriors. The team franchise is owned by Kochi Cricket Pvt Ltd., which is a consortium of multiple companies.

“We are currently talking to Salman and Katrina for endorsement deals,” Kochi IPL Team co-owner Mukesh Patel says. While Katrina has been seen promoting the Bangalore Royal Challengers in the past, Salman has been reported to be keen on buying an IPL team.

Industry observers pointed out that if the deal is signed, the Kochi IPL team would get the much-needed boost on the glamour front with Salman promoting the team along with Katrina.

The Kochi IPL team is ready with a promotional video directed by noted film maker Priyadarshan, which is likely to be on air in the coming days. The fourth season of the IPL will kickstart on April 8.

The Kochi team’s owners are desperate to invest a huge sum, in order to rope in Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif worth Rs 14 crores. According to sources, Salman Khan has demanded Rs 12 crores in order to become an ambassador of Kochi IPL team ‘Indi Commandoes’. Katrina on the other hand has demanded Rs 2 crores to become the ambassador of Kochi IPL team

It is almost official that Katrina will no longer endorse any Kingfisher brand or its IPL team royal challengers Bangalore as Deepika has ordered to her boyfriend Siddharth Malaya, to make his company cut of ties with Katrina Kaif. Katrina was surprised with this decision of Vijay Malaya as she was a good friend of Sid and Vijay Malaya till last year and now they are showing her the door. So, now Katrina has chosen Kochi IPL team and will be surely a part of it in promotion. All the work which an ambassador has to do is to cheer the team, during their cricket match days in IPL.
