Defending Indian Super League (ISL) champions Atletico de Kolkata (ATK) returned to the city on Thursday after conducting their pre-tournament training in Spain.
The squad was welcomed at the Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose International Airport with garlands.
Atletico's marquee player Portuguese Helder Postiga and a few other foreign recruits looked stunned as 'dhakis' (drummers) played foot-tapping rhythms infront of the team hotel.
Postiga also seemed to enjoy the reception and posed for pictures for the fans.
Atletico face Chennaiyin FC in the tournament's opening match on October 3.
