DJ Chetas shares stage with the pace bowling all-rounder of the Indian side, Venkatesh Iyer, on New Year's Eve as the special video goes viral around the social media platforms in Ahmedabad.
On New Year's Eve for the year 2026, the renowned DJ Chetas was seen sharing the stage with the Indian pace bowling all-rounder, Venkatesh Iyer, as the video went viral from Ahmedabad, where the crowd went berserk with the screen showing two ICC winning trophies for the Indian side of the T20 World Cup 2024 and the Champions Trophy 2025.
The crowd turned off their flashlights, and the mobile phones switched on as some emotional moments of the campaign were seen on the screen, with Venkatesh Iyer spending a few minutes on the stage and looking a bit emotional in those moments as he aims to make his return to the national side.
