Kolkata: More than 3,000 school kids, including those differently abled, are all set to celebrate Children's Day today by watching ISL match between Atletico de Kolkata and Chennaiyin FC.

ATK team officials said they have invited around 3,000 children from different government schools to watch their match against the Chennai team.

"We have given them free tickets and they will come in their school uniforms. The government is providing buses for them. Besides that we have also invited 250 differently abled children," a ATK team official said.

Team's co-owner and former India cricket captain Sourav Ganguly and other ATK players will meet some of the children before the match.

Megastar Amitabh Bachchan, who is shooting for his film 'Piku' in the city, would also be in attendance at the Salt Lake Stadium to cheer his son Abhisekh's team Chennaiyin FC.

Actress Deepika Padukone and singer-turned-politician Babul Supriyo would also watch the match.
