Chennai Super Kings (CSK) have officially complained to the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) regarding the DJ's use of offensive songs during their IPL 2026 match against Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) at Chinnaswamy Stadium on April 5. CSK objected to the playing of a track that perpetuates South Indian stereotypes, stating it was in poor taste. CSK CEO Kasi Vishwanathan confirmed the complaint, highlighting that DJs should support the home team without making derogatory remarks against players. The rivalry between CSK and RCB has intensified in recent years, leading to incidents of fan violence during matches. This complaint comes in the wake of previous instances where songs were used to mock players, raising concerns over racial insensitivity. The IPL governing council is set to investigate the matter further. CSK and RCB will only meet once more in the current league phase, limiting the opportunities for such incidents to occur again.
