New Delhi: Bollywood actress and film producer Anushka Sharma has now become an investor and partner in the fast-growing sportswear company, Agilitas Sports. She now also has a small equity stake in the company and is closely involved with the team to develop a brand new Yoga wear collection under the popular One8 brand. She didn’t reveal personally just how much she invested, but this has already generated a lot of news and speculation in the business and entertainment worlds.
This intermingling makes things all the more intriguing as cricket ace Virat Kohli’s wife Anushka had already invested and joined Agilitas as a business partner last year. Kohli invested approximately ₹40 crore in the company, and a part of that investment included his famous lifestyle brand One8, which became part of Agilitas. Now that Anushka has joined the fold, the couple will be working together to build up the One8 brand on yoga and healthy living.
“The reason Anushka is investing capital in the company and developing Yoga wear is its partnership with Agilitas.” — Abhishek Ganguly, Co-Founder & CEO, Agilitas Sports
The new style yoga clothing is going to appear under the title One8 Yoga on the 21st of June, International day of yoga. The timing is pretty sensible, wouldn’t you say? It’s just as if they thought of making a product during a day that honors the practice they’re targeting. The line will be on activewear and wellness wear, which is an emerging segment in India which still has a huge opportunity for upcoming players.
