Bengaluru, May 3, 2025: The Global e-Cricket Premier League (GEPL), an initiative by JetSynthesys and a flagship digital sports property in India, concluded its high-octane Season 2 finale at the Koramangala Indoor Stadium in Bengaluru. The event not only crowned the Chennai Falcons as champions but also marked a significant milestone for Indian esports — a three-year commitment from all participating franchise owners.

This long-term backing from high-profile entrepreneurs and public figures reflects a growing belief in the future of eCricket and its potential to become a mainstream competitive format in India.

Strong Entrepreneurial Backing

The finale was attended by an influential group of stakeholders, including:

Suniel Shetty (Actor & Entrepreneur, Owner – Pune Stallions)

Sara Tendulkar (Investor & Philanthropist, Owner – Mumbai Grizzlies)

Peyush Bansal (Founder & CEO, Lenskart – Owner, Delhi Sharks)

Nikhil Kamath (Co-founder, Zerodha)

Ankit Nagori (Founder, Curefoods)

Prashant Prakash (Partner, Accel India – Co-owner, Bengaluru Badgers)

Gopal Srinivasan, Madhusudanan R, and Arjun Santhanakrishnan (TVS Capital Funds and GS Global Group – Co-owners, Chennai Falcons)

Amit Mehta (Director, LNB Group – Owner, Hyderabad Rhinos)


Their renewed multi-season partnership with GEPL demonstrates strategic confidence in the league’s format, business model, and long-term relevance in the global esports arena.

Statements from Key Stakeholders

Suniel Shetty remarked, “This isn’t a one-off investment — this is a belief in the future of sport itself. GEPL brings together cricket’s legacy and digital innovation. A three-year commitment is just the beginning.”

Sara Tendulkar highlighted the league’s youth-first approach: “GEPL empowers young talent and gives them space to dream big. My association with the Mumbai Grizzlies feels personal, and I believe this is just the start for esports in India.”

Peyush Bansal added a business and wellness angle: “As gaming grows, so does the need for performance-oriented products. We are committed to helping gamers thrive without compromising their health.”

Ankit Nagori called GEPL “an ecosystem, not just a tournament”, while Arjun Santhanakrishnan stated that the long-term decision is backed by proof of concept and scalability.

Rajan Navani, Founder & CEO of JetSynthesys, said, “Season 2 showed what’s possible with a strong format and visionary partners. We are building more than a league — we’re pioneering a new sport for a digital-first generation.”

Rohit Potphode, CEO of GEPL, emphasized the growing traction: “Every season brings deeper engagement and wider recognition. The collective commitment reaffirms GEPL’s position as India’s premier eCricket league.”

Looking Ahead

With Season 2 concluded, GEPL is now set to scale further — bringing in new innovations, deeper fan engagement, and an expanded competitive structure. The league’s long-term vision is aligned with India’s broader digital growth, positioning eCricket as a pivotal player in the nation’s sports and entertainment future.

Brutal Sexual Assault Allegations Against Aides of MP Shreyas Patel Spark Outrage; Victim Alleges Police Inaction and Misuse of Power

Posted on by City Today News (City today.media)

Bengaluru, May 2 — In a shocking revelation, a young woman from Holenarasipura in Hassan district has accused two close aides of Hassan MP Shreyas Patel — Gangadhar and Girish — of repeated sexual assault under the pretext of resolving a property dispute. The allegations, brought to light by H.D. Prakhyat Gowda, President of Nirbhaya Foundation, were disclosed during a press conference held at the Press Club of Bengaluru.

According to the victim, the accused not only assaulted her multiple times but also recorded videos of the act and threatened to throw acid on her if she disclosed the matter to the police. When she attempted to file a complaint at the Holenarasipura Town Police Station, Sub-Inspector Abhijith allegedly refused to register an FIR, citing pressure from the MP. The victim further claims that Abhijith verbally abused her and coerced her into signing a false letter with the help of PSI Basavaraju and Woman Constable Mangala.

The situation worsened when the victim was allegedly forced to meet another close associate of MP Shreyas Patel, Puttaraju, who warned her to withdraw the complaint or face serious consequences, including being ostracized in Holenarasipura. Puttaraju is said to have insisted that the FIR could not be filed without MP Patel’s approval.

Disturbed by the lack of support from the police, the victim approached Superintendent of Police Mohammed Sujeet in Hassan. The SP reportedly directed SI Abhijith to register the complaint immediately. However, the officer defied the SP.
