Former Indian cricketers Harbhajan Singh and Deepak Chahar on Saturday launched 8JJ Sports, a Sri Lanka–based global sports media and fan-engagement platform, marking its international debut in India. The platform aims to serve modern sports audiences with real-time updates, live scores, expert insights, and unique athlete-driven stories across cricket and other global sports.
At the event, Harbhajan Singh expressed that cricket is an integral part of his life and encouraged fans to join the platform to share their opinions, with a chance to win signed memorabilia. Deepak Chahar added that 8JJ Sports is perfect for fans who constantly follow match updates, highlighting that the platform offers sports stories that go beyond the field.
Organisers said the biggest highlight of 8JJ Sports is its integrated fan-community ecosystem, allowing users to participate in discussions and engage directly with sports conversations, bringing fans closer to the action.
The Mumbai launch saw an impressive turnout of sports personalities and celebrities, led by Harbhajan Singh, Deepak Chahar, and Aakash Chopra. Stars from entertainment and digital media—including Malaika Arora, Nawazuddin Siddiqui, Nyra Banerjee, Zareen Khan, Nikki Tamboli, and others—added glamour to the event.
