"We are proud of Dada. He has the captain's luck and he is a fighting cricketer and hope he brings that dash to the team," Juhi said.
KKR will also be sporting new purple jerseys this time.
"Going with the luck factor we have changed the black colour of our jerseys to purple and hope that gives us a purple patch," she said.
The vivacious Bollywood actor admitted to having wept as KKR lost matches in the previous season with Kiwi batsman Brendon McCullum looking hapless wearing the skipper's cap.
"I could not hold back my tears when I saw my team losing even after playing well. With a bit of luck we could have won those matches last season," she said.
Chawla said she will be present for all home games of the team at the Eden Gardens.
"The team management is working very hard both on and off the field and we are confident of doing well. We just need luck," she said.
Kolkata Knight Riders will play the inaugural game of this edition of the tournament against defending champions Deccan Chargers in Mumbai on March 12.
