Puneri Paltan is one of the dynamic teams in the league and is led by Wazir Singh.

     

    This association will be leveraged on various channels, including the digital platform, via engaging content.

     

    Sujay Kalele, Group CEO, Kolte-Patil said, “We are thrilled to be a part of the Pro-Kabaddi League. As Pune’s largest developer, it gives us immense delight to be associated with Pune’s very own team – Puneri Paltan. Kabaddi is one of the oldest sports being played in India. Hence, it deserves all the support we can shower on it. I am sure Puneri Paltan would do wonders in this Pro Kabaddi League 2015. We wish them all the luck for the upcoming matches”

     

    Sidhraj Shah, Head, Brand Activation, MEC India added, “Other than cricket, no sport has ever created such a buzz across the country. A year ago, on its very first day the Pro Kabaddi League had astonishing numbers of viewers and tweets supporting the league with Bollywood personalities joining in the frenzy along the way. This partnership between our client, Kolte Patil, and the Puneri Paltan is a testament of their love and support for their city and this true-blue Indian sport.”
