In IPL 2008 (First Season), Actor Vijay and Nayanthara were appointed as brand ambassadors for Chennai Super Kings (CSK) IPL team. Later CSK IPL team terminated Nayanthara contract as brand ambassador for allegedly breaching the terms of contract. There was buzz that Trisha had been roped in place of Nayanthara. But CSK later confirmed that Actor Vijay will be the sole brand ambassador for CSK. Since the Second Season of IPL 2009 matches fell on election dates and also on vote counting days, the Indian Government denied providing security for IPL matches. The tournament was conducted in South Africa in 2009 as the cost of telecasting matches, transportation, accommodation and security worked out cheaper. And our actresses did not get the chance to become Brand Ambassadors in IPL Season 2 as it was conducted in abroad. The Board of Control for Cricket in India's (BCCI) Twenty20 tournament was estimated to generate advertising revenue of over Rs.600 Crores in its first season. This time, it is 700 Crores!
