Meet the "sports nerd" who went from watching Tom Cruise play a sports agent to being the CEO of Mumbai City Football Club!
In this episode, Nadeem speaks with Indranil Das Blah, Vice President at Reliance Sports. With 22 years of experience under his belt, Indranil talks about moving to Delhi to try professional sports and realizing he wasn't "good enough", getting his first job by being a sports nerd and the best parts about leading Mumbai City FC.
He also gives us the inside scoop on how the industry leverages an athlete's personal branding- from Sachin Tendulkar's 'lovable boy' persona, Virat Kohli's 'aggressive Delhi boy' image to Sania Mirza's 'good girls don't make history' branding!
