"Any match featuring India and Australia is highly anticipated and is even more so if the two teams are going against each other in the World Cup final. I wish luck to both teams but would love to watch India win. However, since I am scheduled to perform at the stadium, I may miss some part of the action during the first half of the match on Sunday. My Message to Team India is: play well, desh ka parcham lehra do (raise our flag and let it flutter)."

Numerous Bollywood A-listers and celebrities have expressed their best wishes and enthusiasm for the hosts ahead of the World Cup final at Ahmedabad's Narendra Modi Stadium, the world's largest cricketing arena.

Earlier, actor and do-gooder Sonu Sood told ANI, "Congratulations in advance to Team India. When such a fantastic bunch of players make the final, victory is assured. The entire country, 140 crore citizens are praying for them to lift the World Cup. A prayer straight from the heart does not go unanswered. I wish them all the best."

Actor Raveena Tandon, too, wished the 'Men in Blue' all the best, saying, "All the very best to Team India. Lehra do Tiranga (raise the Tricolour). Go get it. Jai Hind Jai Bharat."

The upcoming World Cup final between India and Australia on Sunday is viewed as an opportunity for India to avenge their losses in the 2003 ODI World Cup final and the World Test Championship earlier this year.

India secured their spot in the final by defeating New Zealand with a comprehensive 70-run victory. A strong performance by Rohit Sharma, Shubman Gill, Virat Kohli, and Shreyas Iyer set India on course for a massive target of 397/4, with KL Rahul contributing to the final score. Mohammed Shami, in excellent form, took 7 wickets to dismantle the New Zealand chase and secure India's place in the final.

In the second semifinal, Australia faced a tough challenge from South Africa to reach the modest target of 213. Despite a stumble in their chase, Australia, led by captain Pat Cummins and Mitchell Starc, recovered in time to secure their spot in the final against India.
