Manika Batra – Sponsors | Net worth | Investments

Batra signed an endorsement deal with German sportswear giant Adidas "to empower women and enable them to see possibilities in the world of sports". Penned in February 2022, the deal is aimed at driving credibility and inclusivity in sports, further fanning the aspirations of upcoming women sports persons across the country. Owing to her ‘Impossible Is Nothing’ attitude, Manika is now a part of Adidas’ rich roster of women athletes, which consists of some outstanding sportswomen in their respective fields such as Mirabai Chanu, Lovlina Borgohain, Hima Das and Nikhat Zareen. In a move to encourage and support women at the Olympics, Mia by Tanishq, one of India's most fashionable jewellery brands, chose to partner with athletes like Manika Batra, Deepika Kumari, Pooja Rani, Navjot Kaur and Rani Rampal ahead of the Tokyo Olympics. Manika was seen wearing an M-shaped gold pendant from 'The Initial Edit' collection, earrings from the 'Kiss of Spring' collection and a statement piece from 'Solitaires Necklaces'.

An interview with Ramit Tandon

An interview with Ramit Tandon

As a kid, my father played squash. Growing up, right from the age of five or six, I would just follow him around the clubs of Kolkata and watch him play. Naturally, when you see your father play something, when you are of that age, you try to emulate him, hit the ball like him, and that’s when it all started. Following him around the clubs is how I discovered squash. The fact of squash becoming such an important part of my life is more of a natural process. I don’t think it’s ever been a decision that I have taken at a certain age, be it six, seven or eight. I have never sat down and said, ‘okay I’m going to take squash seriously.’ It’s been a very natural process. It’s something I enjoy doing. I started off young, gained some success and have carried on since. Obviously, I didn’t give up my education, and that was always more important to me than squash. Squash, though, was always there with me on the side. I feel people always say we pick sports, but I think it’s the sport that picks us. The journey is such that, when you start playing the sport, things just fall into place, and you just keep going with the flow. There isn’t really a hard-and-fast decision made which makes you go like ‘okay, from today I am a professional player’ etc; there is nothing like that. It just happens. I think that is the case with most athletes. It’s something they enjoy doing and that’s why they got into it and are really passionate about it and it becomes a lifestyle. It becomes more than just a fun activity that you do for an hour or two hours and it’s been the same story for me with squash.
