Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR), the Indian Premier League cricket team that represents the city of Kolkata has partnered with Facebook & AliveNow, a create tech studio and official Facebook and Instagram Spark AR Partners to launch a fun Instagram and Facebook AR filter for their fans. 

As the IPL 2020 is here, the team launched the campaign ‘Tu Fan Nahi, Toofan Hai’ for the season as a tribute to their fans across the world from the players.
