The Star Sports Pro Kabaddi League (PKL) which spanned 37 days and 60 matches, finally culminated at the National Sports Complex of India, Mumbai, the very same venue where the seeds of the game were first sown.

Speaking on year two, Kevin Vaz, Business Head, English Portfolio, Star India Pvt Ltd. said, “We are extremely proud of Star World Premiere HD, which comes with a unique and path breaking proposition of watching the latest with the world. Starting off on an extremely positive note last September, the channel has built a significant premium subscriber base, despite being a pure a la carte HD-only offering. With an all new show line-up this year, we are confident that additional premium consumers will begin subscribing to Star World Premiere HD to enjoy the latest and best of international entertainment.”

Uday Shankar, CEO of Star India, the official broadcasters, said, "Kabaddi had every ingredient, including skill, strategy and speed, to emerge as a serious sport and woo fans. Above all, it is a true blue Indian sport."
