Says Jude Fernandes, “Today is really the big day in the history of World Cricket. Millions of Fans all over the world will be glued to their television sets watching the match. We want to send out a strong message to the world. Enough of wars and animosity and enmity. Enough of terrorism across both sides of the border. We want peace. The people of India and Pakistan want peace on both sides of the border.”

Jude shot with ramp models Diksha, Riya, Tiya and Zoya for his concept. “It was a very hurried shoot. We decided to do it today itself.
