This collaboration isn’t just symbolic—it’s a calculated move to connect with youth audiences, golf enthusiasts, and Indian diasporas worldwide, while strengthening Hero’s global sports portfolio.
Akshay Bhatia, known for his drive and dynamic playstyle, said,
“Partnering with a global brand like Hero MotoCorp is truly a dream come true, especially given my ambition to compete and share my passion for golf around the world for many years ahead. India, and specifically the Hero Indian Open, holds special significance as an integral part of my family’s heritage”
Sahith Theegala, whose charisma and energy have captured the attention of fans worldwide, added:
“I am honored to have been selected by Hero MotoCorp to represent them worldwide. Akshay and I are very good friends, and we are excited to be working with Hero to increase their brand visibility through all our appearances. Like Hero, we are both committed to encouraging the success of young athletes from around the world in their sports and personal endeavors.”
