Malvika's husband, Nikhil Sosale, is the Head of Marketing & Revenue at Diageo India, and he works for RCB. So, of course, now we know why we get to watch her with Anushka at the RCB matches.

On Thursday, when RCB won, Anushka and Malvika both jumped with joy and hugged each other. RCB has made it to the finals for the fourth time, but till now, they haven't won the IPL trophy. So, let's wait and watch whether this time, they will win or not.

Now, on Friday, there's an Eliminator match between Gujarat Titans and Mumbai Indians. The Qualifier 2 match will take place on Sunday (June 1, 2025) between Punjab Kings and the team that wins the Eliminator match. The finals will happen on June 3, 2025, between RCB and the team that wins the Qualifier 2 match. So, let's wait and watch which will be the second team that will reach the finals.
