After the historic win of India at the Asia Cup final on Sunday, Bollywood celebrities, including Mammootty, Anupam Kher, Varun Dhawan, Janhvi Kapoor and others, congratulated the Indian cricket team on their social media platforms.

Taking to his X handle, actor Mammootty hailed the Indian cricket team for playing like a champion. “Team India didn’t just win the Asia Cup, they owned it. Champions without a single defeat. Absolutely magnificent! (Blue heart and trophy emojis),” wrote Mammootty.

Anupam also shared his excitement via a post on Instagram. In the clip, he punched his fist in the air repeatedly and said, “Bharat Mata ki jay! Kya baat hai (Wow)! What a game! Oh my God. Jeetenge bhai jeetenge. Bharat Mata ki jay (We will win. Hail India)! Vande Mataram.” He also added, “Khush ho gaya dil. Kya bolun main (I’m so happy. What do I say?). Superb. Proud of my country, proud of this cricket team. Fantastic, very well played. God bless them.” He also thumped his chest and blew kisses in the video.

Janhvi Kapoor and Varun Dhawan, who were at an event promoting their film Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari, cheered for India.

Janhvi shared an Instagram post in which Varun Dhawan teased her earlier comment of hailing India at a Janmashtami event.

He told Janhvi, Ek aur cheez, abi tum actually bol sakti ho (One more thing, you can actually say this now).”
