After 18 long years, Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) finally lifted the IPL trophy—and for Virat Kohli, it meant everything. But this happiness was short-lived. The next day, RCB flew back to Bengaluru for a grand victory parade. Lakhs of fans gathered for the celebration, but the event took a tragic turn. A stampede-like situation outside the stadium led to the deaths of at least 11 people and left dozens injured. The victory turned into a tragedy – is this the work of the stars? Here is Astrologer Greenstone Lobo’s take. 

At least 11 people have lost their lives and several others are critically injured after a stampede-like situation broke out outside Bengaluru’s M Chinnaswamy Stadium on Tuesday evening. What was meant to be a grand celebration turned into a tragedy after lakhs of fans gathered for the Karnataka government’s felicitation event honouring RCB’s historic IPL 2025 victory. As the crowd swelled beyond control, chaos ensued, leading to devastating consequences. Poor crowd management and lack of emergency preparedness are now under scrutiny, turning what should have been a proud moment for the city into one of grief and shock.
