Bollywood superstar Hrithik Roshan is set to attend the grand opening of the new casino at “City of Dreams – Sri Lanka” in Colombo, according to reports. He will arrive in Sri Lanka as the special guest for the event, which is scheduled to take place on August 2.
Initially, Bollywood’s “King Khan” Shah Rukh Khan was expected to grace the occasion as the special guest. However, he informed last week that he would be unable to attend due to unavoidable personal reasons.
The casino is operated by Hong Kong-listed Melco Resorts & Entertainment Ltd, within the City of Dreams complex developed as a mixed-use project by John Keells Holdings. Melco, led by casino magnate Lawrence Ho Yau Lung, runs several casinos across the world, including City of Dreams Macau and City of Dreams Manila. The August 2 opening ceremony will be an invite-only event.
